Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of sorafenib in patients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS). Eligible subjects will receive Sorafenib administered at 400mg orally twice a day, given on days 1-28 of a 28-day cycle. Patients will be evaluated for hematological response after 2 cycles and then every 3 cycles thereafter for a maximum of 5 years from study entry.
