Limitations and caveats
Sotatercept development in β-thalassemia indication was stopped and no further patients were enrolled after 1 mg/kg cohort was completed. Due to the early termination of the study and no enrollment of the Expansion Cohort, the primary analyses to determine the recommended dose (RD) and the secondary analysis of QoL change from baseline were not conducted.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPotential Recommended Dose as Determined by Number of Participants Experiencing Dose-Limiting Toxicities and Recommended DoseFrom first dose up to 28 days post the first dose
Number of participants with dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) are used to determine the potential recommended dose (PRD). PRD is defined as the highest dose with up to 1 out of 6 patients experiencing a DLT. DLT is defined as any side effects of the study treatment serious enough to prevent an increase in dose or level of treatment, including at least one of the following: Hypertension ≥ Grade 3 per National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0; Hgb \> 14 g/dL sustained for four weeks; any NCI CTCAE toxicity ≥ Grade 3. Grade 3 is defined as severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self-care activities of daily life. PRD was identified as 1 mg/kg. Due to study termination, no patients were enrolled after 1 mg/kg cohort or in the Expansion Cohort. Thus, primary analyses to determine recommended dose (RD) were not conducted.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Red Blood Cell Transfusion Burden Reduction From Baseline During TreatmentFrom baseline to the last dose of study treatment (up to approximately 112 months)
Transfusion burden at baseline is defined as the total number of units of RBC transfusions that participants received within 168 days (24 weeks) prior to the first dose of study therapy. Transfusion burden during treatment is defined as the total number of RBC transfusion units that each participant received during the treatment divided by the treatment duration and multiplied by 168 days. The result is a 168-day transfusion burden average. Baseline measurement includes RBC transfusion history for transfusion dependent and non-transfusion dependent participants, starting at 168 days prior to enrollment.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Hemoglobin Level Increase From Baseline in Non-Transfusion Dependent B-Thalassemia Intermedia ParticipantsMeasurements were taken in 9 and 12-week intervals, from baseline up to approximately 112 months
The Number of participants with a change in Hemoglobin levels will be listed for non-RBC transfusion dependent participants. Baseline assessments are the average of the last two measurements prior to the start of therapy.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events (AEs)From first dose up to 112 days after the last dose of study treatment (up to 115 months)
An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition in a clinical investigation participant administered study treatment and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. Adverse events are graded on a scale from 1 to 5, with Grade 1 being mild and asymptomatic; Grade 2 is moderate requiring minimal, local or noninvasive intervention; Grade 3 is severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; Grade 4 events are usually severe enough to require hospitalization; Grade 5 events are fatal. Treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE) are defined as an AE that began after the start of trial medication treatment; or if the event was continuous from baseline and was serious, trial medication-related, or resulted in death, discontinuation, or interruption or reduction of trial therapy.

Pharmacokinetic (PK) samples were collected at the pre-specified timepoints.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA)From first dose up to 4 months after last dose (up to approximately 116 months)
The number of participants with Anti-Sotatercept Antibody is a summary of antidrug antibody (ADA) status for ADA-evaluated participants. A participant is counted as 'positive' if there is any positive result captured during the study, a participant is counted as 'negative' if there is no positive result captured during the study. ADA data was collected Day 1 in dose schedules 1 through 6. Starting from Dose 7, ADA was measured at Day 1 every 3 Doses, then finally at the post-treatment follow-up visit at Month 2 and Month 4.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Experiencing Quality of Life (QOL) Change From BaselineFrom pre-dose up to Dose 8 (168 days/6months) and Dose 16 (336 days/12months) only
The number of participants in the expansion cohort experiencing changes from baseline in Quality of Life. QOL was planned to be assessed at Day 168 (6 months) and Day 336 (12 months), after Dose 1 Day 1, independent of Dose Delay for participants enrolled in the Expansion Cohort only. QOL was planned to be calculated using the SF-36 and the FACT Anemia. The SF-36 is a Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) consisting of 36 questions developed to determine health status. The SF-36 measures eight scales: physical functioning, role physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role emotional, and mental health. The FACT Anemia measures fatigue and other anemia-related symptoms with the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT) Measurement System. Due to early study termination, no participants were enrolled in the expansion cohort and QOL was not assessed.
