Failure of hypomethylation agent (HMA) treatments is an important issue in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Recent studies indicated that function of wildtype TP53 positively impacts outcome of HMA treatments. We investigated the combination of the HMA azacitidine (AZA) with DS-3032b and DS-5272, novel antagonists of the TP53 negative regulator MDM2, in cellular and animal models of MDS and CMML. In  TP53  wildtype myeloid cell line, combinational effects of DS-3032b or DS-5272 with AZA were observed. In  Tet2 -knockout mouse model of MDS and CMML, DS-5272 and AZA combination ameliorated disease-like phenotype. RNA-Seq analysis in mouse bone marrow hematopoietic stem and progenitors indicated that DS-5272 and AZA combination caused down-regulation of leukemia stem cell marker genes and activation of pathways of TP53 function and stability. These findings demonstrate that combining an MDM2 antagonist with AZA has potential to improve AZA treatment in  TP53  wildtype MDS and CMML.
