Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Part 1: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of imetelstat in transfusion dependent subjects with low or intermediate-1 risk MDS that is relapsed/refractory to ESA treatment. Part 2: To compare the efficacy, in terms of RBC TI, of imetelstat to placebo in transfusion dependent subjects with low or intermediate-1 risk MDS that is relapsed/refractory to ESA treatment.;Secondary Objective: - To assess the safety of imetelstat in subjects with MDS - To assess the time to RBC TI and duration of RBC TI - To assess the rate of hematologic improvement - To assess the rates of CR or PR - To assess OS - To assess time to progression to AML - To assess the rate and amount of supportive care, including transfusions and myeloid growth factors - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of imetelstat in subjects with MDS - To assess the effect of imetelstat treatment on patient reported outcomes (PROs) - To assess the effect of treatment on medical resource utilization;Primary end point(s): Percentage of participants without any red blood cell (RBC) transfusion during any consecutive 8 week period.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 8 weeks
