A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Elritercept (KER-050) for the Treatment of Transfusion-Dependent Anemia in Adult Participants With Very Low-, Low-, or Intermediate-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) (RENEW)
Takeda
Summary
The main aim of this study is to find out how well elritercept works in lowering the need for RBC transfusions.
