SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessed every cycle during treatment and then 3 and 6 months after last protocol treatment

Population: Only evaluable patients who achieved MER among randomized patients were included in this analysis.

Time to major erythroid response (MER) is defined in responders as the time from randomization to the documented date of MER. For transfusion independent patients, the date of MER is the first date of the elevation in hemoglobin level of more than 2 g/dL that has been sustained for at least 8 weeks. For transfusion dependent patients, the date of MER is the beginning date of the time interval of transfusion independence that has been sustained for at least eight weeks.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessed at 16 weeks

Population: Evaluable patients randomized to either arm A or arm B

Bone marrow response includes complete remission (CR) and partial remission (PR). Complete remission (CR): Bone marrow showing \< 5% myeloblasts with normal maturation of all cell lines, with no evidence for dysplasia. When erythroid precursors constitute \< 50% of bone marrow nucleated cells, the percent of blasts is based on all nucleated cells; when there are ≥ 50% erythroid cells, the percent blasts should be based on the non-erythroid cells. Partial remission (PR): All of the CR criteria (if abnormal prior to treatment), except blasts decreased by 50% over pre-treatment, or a less advanced Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) World Health Organization (WHO) classification than pretreatment. Cellularity and morphology are not relevant.

Timeframe: Assessed at baseline and after completion of 16 weeks of treatment

Population: Evaluable patients randomized to either arm A or arm B who had cytogenetic response data

Evaluation of cytogenetic response requires 20 analyzable metaphases when using conventional techniques. Analysis of data will require 20 metaphases before and after treatment, which must be done on bone marrow only (peripheral blood is not a substitute). Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) may be used as a supplement to follow a specifically defined cytogenetic abnormality, but it is not a substitute for conventional cytogenetic studies. Cytogenetic response is defined as follows: Complete response: Restoration of a normal karyotype in patients with a documented pre-existing clonal (\>2 metaphases abnormal) chromosome abnormalities. Partial response: \> 50% reduction in the percentage of bone marrow metaphases with only clonal abnormality.
