Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of roxadustat in the treatment of anemia in patients with lower risk MDS who have a low burden of RBC transfusion.;Secondary Objective: - To evaluate the safety of roxadustat - To evaluate the impact of roxadustat on RBC transfusion requirements - To evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of roxadustat in MDS patients - To evaluate effect of roxadustat on quality of life parameters;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of patients who achieved transfusion-independence (TI) >/=56 consecutive days in the first 28 weeks of treatment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The first 28 weeks of treatment | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): - Proportion of patients who achieved >/=50% reduction in number of RBC transfusion over any 8 weeks compared to their baseline - Cumulative number of patient-exposure-week of TI - Cumulative number of pRBC packs transfused - Proportion of patients who achieved TI for >/=20 Weeks (120 Days) - Mean change from baseline in Physical Function as measured by Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) - Mean change from baseline in PROMIS Fatigue score. - Mean change from baseline in Euroqol Quality of Life Five Dimensional Five Level Health Questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) assessment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Secondary Efficacy Endpoints (all secondary and exploratory endpoints will be analyzed at both for the first 28 weeks of treatment and for the end of the 52-week study treatment period) | — |
