Allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HCT) remains the only potentially curative therapy for patients with myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) and myelofibrosis (MF) and is the standard care for eligible patients with higher-risk disease. Despite significant advancements, both diseases pose unique challenges due to their clinical and molecular heterogeneity, necessitating personalized approaches to patient selection, timing, and transplant management. For MDS, genomic profiling has revolutionized prognostic frameworks such as IPSS-M, enabling tailored therapeutic decisions.
