Outcome
- Type
- SECONDARY
- Title
- Number of Participants Who Became Transfusion Independent
- Description
Participants who were transfusion dependent at baseline prior to starting therapy on the Decitabine or Azacitidine arm will be analyzed for transfusion independence. Transfusion independence defined as being transfusion-free for ≥8 consecutive weeks between the first dose and study treatment discontinuation.
- Time frame
- 8 weeks
- Population
Participants analyzed for Transfusion Independence must have been transfusion dependent at baseline. Thirty-seven participants in the Decitabine arm and nineteen participants in the Azacitidine arm where transfusion dependent prior to treatment on this study.
