Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

What hematopoietic precursor compartments as well as hemoglobin subtypes are affected by dosing with sotatercept (ACE-011)? Based upon a similar prior study with Procrit, Celgene has determined that all of these goals could be obtained by an intense 10-patient sotatercept (ACE-011) pharmacodynamic study, completed by two well-known experts in the red cell production field.
