What was measured

Time to major erythroid response (MER) is defined in responders as the time from randomization to the documented date of MER. For transfusion independent patients, the date of MER is the first date of the elevation in hemoglobin level of more than 2 g/dL that has been sustained for at least 8 weeks. For transfusion dependent patients, the date of MER is the beginning date of the time interval of transfusion independence that has been sustained for at least eight weeks.

Analysis population: Only evaluable patients who achieved MER among randomized patients were included in this analysis.

Groups in this outcome

Arm A (Lenalidomide; Randomization)

Patients receive lenalidomide PO QD on days 1-21.

Arm B (Lenalidomide + Epoetin Alfa; Randomization)

Patients receive lenalidomide PO QD on days 1-21 and epoetin alfa SC once weekly.

Group identifiers and denominators belong to this outcome only. They may differ in another outcome or in safety reporting.
