ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAbsolute Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin (Hgb) to End of Treatment (Week 6)Baseline, Week 6
Absolute change from Baseline was calculated as the Week 6 (end of treatment) value minus the Baseline value. Baseline Hgb was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing. If there was only one measurement prior to dosing, this measurement served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated that hemoglobin concentration increased.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Hgb at Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, and Follow-up Visit (up to Week 8)Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, Follow-up Visit (up to Week 8)
Change from Baseline was calculated as the visit value minus the Baseline value. Baseline Hgb was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing; if there was only one value prior to dosing, this value served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated that hemoglobin concentration increased.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Hematocrit (HCT) at Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, and Follow-up Visit (up to Week 8)Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, Follow-up Visit (up to Week 8)
Change from Baseline was calculated as the visit value minus the Baseline value. Baseline HCT was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing; if there was only one value prior to dosing, this value served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated HCT concentration increased.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count at Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, and Follow-up Visit (up to Week 8)Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, Follow-up Visit (up to Week 8)
Change from Baseline was calculated as the visit value minus the Baseline value. Baseline RBC count was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing; if there was only one value prior to dosing, this value served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated RBC count increased.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Absolute Reticulocyte Count at Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, and Follow-up Visit (up to Week 8)Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, Follow-up Visit (up to Week 8)
Change from Baseline was calculated as the visit value minus the Baseline value. Baseline Reticulocyte count was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing; if there was only one value prior to dosing, this value served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated reticulocyte count increased.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Reticulocyte Hgb Content at Week 6Baseline, Week 6
Change from Baseline was calculated as the Week 6 value minus the Baseline value. Baseline Reticulocyte count was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing; if there was only one value prior to dosing, this value served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated reticulocyte Hgb content increased.
SecondaryMaximum Change From Baseline in HgbBaseline; up to Week 8
Change from Baseline was calculated as the maximum value minus the Baseline value. Baseline Hgb was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing; if there was only one value prior to dosing, this value served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated that hemoglobin concentration increased.
SecondaryMaximum Change From Baseline in HCTBaseline; up to Week 8
Change from Baseline was calculated as the maximum value minus the Baseline value. Baseline HCT was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing; if there was only one value prior to dosing, this value served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated that HCT concentration increased.
SecondaryMaximum Change From Baseline in RBC CountBaseline; up to Week 8
Change from Baseline was calculated as the maximum value minus the Baseline value. Baseline RBC Count was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing; if there was only one value prior to dosing, this value served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated that RBC count increased.
SecondaryMaximum Change in Absolute Reticulocyte Count From BaselineBaseline; up to Week 8
Change from Baseline was calculated as the maximum value minus the Baseline value. Baseline absolute reticulocyte count was defined as the average of the last two measurements obtained prior to dosing; if there was only one value prior to dosing, this value served as Baseline. A positive change from Baseline indicated that reticulocyte count increased.
