入选标准

  • Male or female participants aged ≥18 years or older at time of signing the informed consent form (ICF).
  • Able to understand the purpose and risks of the trial and voluntarily sign an ICF prior to any trial-related procedures being conducted and authorization to use protected health information and personal data in accordance to national and local privacy regulations.
  • Documented diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome(s) (MDS) according to WHO 2016 classification that meets International Prognostic Scoring System – Revised (IPSS-R) classification of very low-, low-, or intermediate-risk disease, confirmed by central laboratory independent reviewer prior to randomization. Hemoglobin (Hgb), platelet, and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) values should be collected >14 days after red blood cell (RBC) transfusion or >7 days after platelet transfusion, unless otherwise considered to be pretransfusion values.
  • Bone marrow <5% blasts in an evaluable bone marrow collected at screening and confirmed by central pathology independent reviewer.
  • Endogenous serum erythropoietin s (EPO) level of <500 U/L. Should be results from blood samples collected >14 days following an RBC transfusion to evaluate for eligibility unless considered pretransfusion values.
  • Participant requires RBC transfusion, as documented by the following criteria (Section 8.1.1.3). A transfusion requirement of 2 to 6 packed red blood cells (pRBCs) units/8 weeks confirmed for a minimum of 8 weeks immediately preceding randomization. • Hgb levels at the time of or within 3 days prior to administration of a RBC transfusion must have been ≤9.0 g/dL (5.6 mmol/L) with symptoms of anemia (or ≤7 g/dL [4.3 mmol/L] in the absence of symptoms) in order for the transfusion to be counted towards meeting eligibility criteria. • RBC transfusions administered when Hgb levels were >9.0 g/dL (or >7 g/dL in the absence of symptoms) and/or RBC transfusions administered for elective surgery, infections or bleeding events will not qualify as a required transfusion for the purpose of meeting eligibility criteria or stratification.
  • Hgb <11.0 g/dL (6.8 mmol/L) after last RBC transfusion preceding randomization. Local laboratory is acceptable to facilitate randomization.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score of 0, 1, or 2.
