A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Luspatercept for the Treatment of Transfusion-dependent (TD) Anemia Associated With Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) & Beta-thalassemia (β-Thal) in India

Korábbi kezelés

• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or stroke requiring medical intervention ≤ 24 weeks prior to enrollment.
• Use of chronic anticoagulant therapy is excluded unless the treatment stopped at least 28 days prior to enrollment. Anticoagulant therapies used for prophylaxis for surgery or high-risk procedures as well as low-molecular-weight (LMW) heparin for superficial venous thrombosis and chronic aspirin are allowed.
• Cytotoxic agents or immunosuppressants or immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) ≤ 28 days prior to enrollment (ie, antithymocite globulin or cyclosporine or thalidomide).
  • MDS-RS Cohort
• Secondary MDS, that is, MDS that is known to have arisen as the result of chemical injury or treatment with chemotherapy and/or radiation for other diseases.

Más betegség

• Participant has known clinically significant anemia due to iron, vitamin B12, or folate deficiencies; autoimmune or hereditary hemolytic anemia; or gastrointestinal bleeding.

Laborértékek

• A diagnosis of Hb S/β-thalassemia or α-thalassemia (for exampe, Hemoglobin H).
• Iron deficiency to be determined by serum ferritin ≤ 15 micrograms per liter (μg/L) and additional testing if clinically indicated (for example, calculated transferrin saturation [iron/total iron binding capacity ≤ 20%] or bone marrow aspirate [BMA] stain for iron).

Egyéb

• β-Thalassemia Cohort
• MDS associated with del 5q cytogenetic abnormality.

• β-Thalassemia Cohort
• Documented diagnosis of β-thalassemia or hemoglobin (Hb E/β-thalassemia). (β-thalassemia with mutation and/or multiplication of alpha [α] globin is allowed).
• Regularly transfused, defined as 6 RBC units to 20 RBC units in the 24 weeks prior to enrollment and no transfusion-free period for > 35 days during that period.
  • MDS-RS Cohort
• Participant has documented diagnosis of MDS according to World Health Organization (WHO) (2016)/French-American-British FAB classification that meets revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) classification of very low, low, or intermediate risk disease and the following criteria: i) RS ≥ 15% of erythroid precursors in bone marrow. If the SF3B1 mutation is present, RS ≥ 5% will be included.
• Less than 5% blasts in bone marrow and < 1% peripheral blood blasts. iii) Peripheral blood white blood cell (WBC) count < 13,000/ microliters (μL).
• If the participant was previously treated with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)/granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), both agents must have been discontinued ≥ 4 weeks prior to the date of enrollment.
