Luspatercept for anemia after a stem cell transplant
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic clinical trials.
This study tests a drug called luspatercept to see if it can help people who have low red blood cells (anemia) after a stem cell transplant for leukemia. It may improve your energy and reduce the need for blood transfusions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a type of blood cancer called acute leukemia.
- You have already had a stem cell transplant from a donor.
- Your hemoglobin level (a measure of red blood cells) is less than 80.
- Your doctors expect you to live for at least 3 more months.
- You are willing to come for study visits and follow the plan.
- You have no major heart, kidney, liver, or blood clotting problems.

This trial tests if luspatercept can help improve red blood cell counts in people with a certain type of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have mild to moderate anemia after intensive chemotherapy. It is for patients with a lower-risk form of AML who have completed 1–3 cycles of high-dose consolidation therapy.
This trial tests whether a drug called luspatercept can help your body produce red blood cells better after a bone marrow transplant for blood cancer. The goal is to reduce complications and improve recovery.
This trial tests a new medication called luspatercept to help patients whose red blood cells aren't recovering well after a bone marrow transplant for blood cancer. The goal is to see if it works better than the standard treatment (epoetin) to boost red blood cell production.
This study tests whether a combination of two drugs, luspatercept and thalidomide, can help people with beta-thalassemia who need regular blood transfusions. It aims to reduce the number of transfusions needed.
This trial tests whether luspatercept can help improve low red blood cell counts (anemia) that happens soon after a stem cell transplant. It is for people with blood cancers who have very low hemoglobin after transplant.
This Phase 2 trial studies whether luspatercept can improve anemia in people with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who do not currently need red-blood-cell transfusions. It’s also looking to see if the benefit is similar whether or not you have ring sideroblasts.
