Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

β-Thalassemia Cohort

* Documented diagnosis of β-thalassemia or hemoglobin (Hb E/β-thalassemia). (β-thalassemia with mutation and/or multiplication of alpha \[α\] globin is allowed).
* Regularly transfused, defined as 6 RBC units to 20 RBC units in the 24 weeks prior to enrollment and no transfusion-free period for \> 35 days during that period.

MDS-RS Cohort

\- Participant has documented diagnosis of MDS according to World Health Organization (WHO) (2016)/French-American-British FAB classification that meets revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) classification of very low, low, or intermediate risk disease and the following criteria: i) RS ≥ 15% of erythroid precursors in bone marrow. If the SF3B1 mutation is present, RS ≥ 5% will be included.

ii) Less than 5% blasts in bone marrow and \< 1% peripheral blood blasts. iii) Peripheral blood white blood cell (WBC) count \< 13,000/ microliters (μL).

* If the participant was previously treated with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)/granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), both agents must have been discontinued ≥ 4 weeks prior to the date of enrollment.

Exclusion Criteria

β-Thalassemia Cohort

* A diagnosis of Hb S/β-thalassemia or α-thalassemia (for exampe, Hemoglobin H).
* Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or stroke requiring medical intervention ≤ 24 weeks prior to enrollment.
* Use of chronic anticoagulant therapy is excluded unless the treatment stopped at least 28 days prior to enrollment. Anticoagulant therapies used for prophylaxis for surgery or high-risk procedures as well as low-molecular-weight (LMW) heparin for superficial venous thrombosis and chronic aspirin are allowed.
* Cytotoxic agents or immunosuppressants or immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) ≤ 28 days prior to enrollment (ie, antithymocite globulin or cyclosporine or thalidomide).

MDS-RS Cohort

* MDS associated with del 5q cytogenetic abnormality.
* Secondary MDS, that is, MDS that is known to have arisen as the result of chemical injury or treatment with chemotherapy and/or radiation for other diseases.
* Participant has known clinically significant anemia due to iron, vitamin B12, or folate deficiencies; autoimmune or hereditary hemolytic anemia; or gastrointestinal bleeding.
* Iron deficiency to be determined by serum ferritin ≤ 15 micrograms per liter (μg/L) and additional testing if clinically indicated (for example, calculated transferrin saturation \[iron/total iron binding capacity ≤ 20%\] or bone marrow aspirate \[BMA\] stain for iron).
