Real-World data reveals Luspatercept's impact on MDS patients
NCT ID NCT06851065
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked back at medical records of 418 patients with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who had not previously used erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). Researchers examined how luspatercept was used in everyday practice, including dosing, treatment changes, and outcomes like blood transfusion needs and disease progression. The goal was to understand the real-world effectiveness of luspatercept in this patient group.
