What was measured

Responders were defined as subjects who achieved ≥ 33% reduction or ≥ 50% reduction in Red Blood Cells Transfusion (RBC-T) burden from baseline with a reduction of at least 2 RBC units during any rolling 12-week interval. The duration of reduction is calculated as Last Day of Response - First day of response +1

Analysis population: All randomized participants with ≥ 33% reduction or ≥ 50% reduction in RBC-T burden

Groups in this outcome

Luspatercept + BSC

Luspatercept (ACE-536) was administered subcutaneously (SC) at a starting dose level of 1 mg/kg once every 21 days. Participants could be dose-titrated to 1.25 mg/kg, but the maximum total dose should not exceed 120 mg, total dose per administration during the Treatment Period, the Long-term Treatment Period, and Open-Label Treatment Period. BSC = Best Supportive Care

Placebo + BSC

Placebo (normal saline) was administered subcutaneously (SC) in volumes to match active treatment once every 21 days. BSC = Best Supportive Care
