Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1.Male or female participants aged >= 18 years or older at time of signing the informed consent form (ICF). 2.Able to understand the purpose and risks of the trial and voluntarily sign an ICF prior to any trial-related procedures being conducted and authorization to use protected health information and personal data in accordance to national and local privacy regulations. 3.Documented diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome(s) (MDS) according to WHO 2016 classification that meets International Prognostic Scoring System -Revised (IPSS-R) classification of very low-, low-, or intermediate-risk disease, confirmed by central laboratory independent reviewer prior to randomization. Hemoglobin (Hgb), platelet, and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) values should be collected greater than (>) 14 days after red blood cell (RBC) transfusion or greater than (>) 7 days after platelet transfusion, unless otherwise considered to be pretransfusion values. 4.Bone marrow less than (14 days following an RBC transfusion to evaluate for eligibility unless considered pretransfusion values. 6.Participant requires RBC transfusion, as documented by the following criteria. A transfusion requirement of 2 to 6 pRBCs units/8 weeks confirmed for a minimum of 8 weeks immediately preceding randomization. -Hgb levels at the time of or within 3 days prior to administration of a RBC transfusion must have been less than or equal to (9.0 g/dL (or >7 g/dL in the absence of symptoms) and/or RBC transfusions administered for elective surgery, infections or bleeding events will not qualify as a required transfusion for the purpose of meeting eligibility criteria or stratification. 7.Hgb <11.0 g/dL (6.8 mmol/L) after last RBC transfusion preceding randomization. Local laboratory is acceptable to facilitate randomization. 8.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score of 0, 1, or 2.
