What was measured

Progression free survival was defined as the time interval from study Day 1 to the first date of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Disease progression as per IWG criteria was defined as: at least one of the following: at least 50 % decrement from maximum response levels in granulocytes or platelets; reduction in hemoglobin by ≥1.5 g/dL; transfusion dependence.

Analysis population: Phase 2: All Treated Analysis Set included all participants who received at least one dose of study drug. Phase 3: ITT Analysis Set included all participants randomized into the Phase 3 study.

Groups in this outcome

Phase 2: Imetelstat Sodium

Imetelstat sodium administered IV, at a starting dose of 7.5 mg/kg, every 4 weeks (on a 28-day cycle) until death, lost to follow-up, withdrawal of consent, or study termination whichever occurs first. Dose escalation to 9.4 mg/kg was allowed before Protocol Amendment 2.

Phase 3: Imetelstat Sodium

Imetelstat sodium administered IV, at a starting dose of 7.5 mg/kg, every 4 weeks (on a 28-day cycle) until death, lost to follow-up, withdrawal of consent, or study termination whichever occurs first.

Phase 3: Placebo

Imetelstat sodium-matching placebo administered IV, every 4 weeks (on a 28-day cycle), until death, lost to follow-up, withdrawal of consent, or study termination whichever occurs first.
