What was measured

Duration of major erythroid response (MER) is defined as the time interval between the documented date of MER and the earliest date of resumption of red blood cell transfusions ≥ 2 units in an 8-week period, a reduction in hemoglobin concentration ≥ 2 g/dL in the absence of acute infection, gastrointestinal bleeding and hemolysis, or death.

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.
