A Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Luspatercept (ACE-536) Versus Epoetin Alfa for the Treatment of Anemia Due to IPSS-R Very Low, Low, or Intermediate Risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) Participants Who Require Red Blood Cell Transfusions and Are ESA Naïve
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Luspatercept: Specified dose on specified days
Epoetin alfa: Specified dose on specified days
Study summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of luspatercept (ACE-536) compared to epoetin alfa on red blood cell (RBC) transfusion independence (for at least 12 weeks) with a concurrent hemoglobin increase of at least 1.5 g/dL in participants with anemia due to revised international prognostic scoring system (IPSS-R) very low, low, or intermediate risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who require RBC transfusions and have never been exposed to erythropoiesis stimulating agent (ESA).
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Percentage of Participants With Red Blood Cell Transfusion Independence (RBC-TI) for 12 Weeks (84 Days) With a Mean Hemoglobin Increase ≥ 1.5 g/dL — Week 1 through Week 24
Percentage of participants who are RBC transfusion-free for any 12-week period associated with a concurrent mean hemoglobin (Hgb) increase ≥ 1.5 g/dL compared to baseline. After applying below 14/3-day rule, the baseline Hgb value is defined as the lowest Hgb value from the central, local laboratory, or pre transfusion Hgb from transfusion records that is within 56 days on or prior to the first dose of treatment, or randomization date if participants were not treated. 4/3-day rule: only Hgb values that are at least 14 days after a transfusion may be used unless there is another transfusion within 3 days after the Hgb assessment. If this occurs, that Hgb value will be used despite being \< 14 days after the previous transfusion.
