Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Roxadustat
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo

Experimental: Roxadustat - Open-label, lead-in: Participants will receive sequential escalating roxadustat doses (1.5 milligrams/kilograms \[mg/kg\], 2.0 mg/kg and 2.5 mg/kg), three times a week (TIW) based upon their actual weight at the randomization visit to identify the starting dose for double-blind period.

Double-blind: Participants will receive roxadustat 2.5 mg/kg TIW based upon their body weight for a duration of 52 weeks.

Open-label: Participants with high serum erythropoietin levels (\>400 milli-international units \[mIU\]/milliliter \[mL\] mIU/mL) will receive roxadustat 2.5 mg/kg TIW based upon their body weight for a duration of 52 weeks.

Placebo comparator: Placebo - Double-blind: Participants will receive placebo matching to roxadustat for a duration of 52 weeks.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
Key

* Diagnosis of primary MDS classified by the International Prognostic Scoring System - Revised (IPSS-R) as very low, low or intermediate risk with <5% bone marrow blasts. There is no minimum time from diagnosis to registration/randomization except to allow for proper IPSS-R classification to be made (within 16 weeks prior to randomization), and to show transfusion dependence for participants in both portions of the study.
* RBC transfusion of either 2-4 pRBC units during the 8 weeks prior to registration/randomization or 1 pRBC in two consecutive periods of 8 weeks within the 16 weeks prior to registration/randomization. Open-Label Lead-in participants only, the requirement to demonstrate transfusion dependence can also be met by a Principal Investigator starting this particular participant on pRBC transfusion during the screening period.
* No restriction on prior use of recombinant erythropoietins or analogues (erythropoiesis-stimulating agents [ESAs]), except no ESA use within 8 weeks prior to Day 1 registration/randomization.
* Hemoglobin (Hb) =10.0 grams/deciliter (g/dL) during screening
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) of 0-2 at screening

Key
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age

Key exclusion criteria
* Diagnosis of secondary MDS associated with prior chemotherapy, extensive radiation therapy (>25% of bone marrow reserve), and or/other significant chemical or radiation exposure
* Significant myelofibrosis (>2+ fibrosis)
* MDS associated with 5q(del) cytogenetic abnormality
* Screen serum erythropoietin level > 400 milli-international units (mIU)/milliliter (mL) • Clinically significant anemia, as determined by the investigator, due to non-MDS etiologies such as iron deficiency, vitamin B12 or folate deficiency, autoimmune or hereditary hemolysis or anemia or hemorrhage or hereditary anemia such as sickle cell anemia or thalassemia.
