Could a higher dose of reblozyl free MDS patients from frequent transfusions?
NCT ID NCT06045689
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether starting luspatercept (Reblozyl) at the maximum approved dose can help people with low-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) go without red blood cell transfusions for at least 8 weeks. About 106 participants who currently need regular transfusions will receive the drug. The main goal is to see if they can maintain higher hemoglobin levels without transfusions.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help people with low-risk MDS need fewer blood transfusions and maintain higher hemoglobin levels.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage Phase 3 trial with only 106 participants. Results may not apply to all MDS patients, and side effects from luspatercept are possible.
