- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, GOT) : no greater than 3.0 times the upper boundary of the reference range at each institution
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (Glutamic pyruvic transaminase, GPT): no greater than 3.0 times the upper boundary of the reference range at each institution
- Total bilirubin: no more than 1.5 times the upper boundary of the reference range at each institution
- Serum creatinine: no more than 1.5 times the upper boundary of the reference range at each institution

- Patients who personally signed an informed consent document for participation in this study.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients who satisfy any of the following conditions will not be enrolled in the study.
- Patients with anemia caused by factors other than MDS (hemolytic anemia, gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, etc.).
- Patients who have undergone treatment for an active malignant tumor within the past year (except basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast).
- Patients who have been administered a cytokine preparation such as granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), erythropoietin, etc. within 14 days of tests for enrollment of the study.
- Patients with obvious infectious diseases (including viral infections).
- Patients with serious complications (liver failure, renal failure, etc.).
- Patients with a complicating or previous history of serious heart disease (myocardial infarction, ischemic heart disease, etc.) within the past two years before enrollment, and with cardiac arrhythmia requiring treatment.
- Patients with a serious gastrointestinal condition (severe or significant nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, etc.).
- Patients who are positive for the Hepatitis B surface (HBs) antigen or HIV antibodies.
- Patients with serious bleeding tendencies (disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), internal hemorrhage, etc.).
- Ascites requiring active medical management including paracentesis, or hyponatremia (defined as serum sodium value of <130 mEq/L).
- Patients who have been administered a drug in a clinical trial or an unapproved drug within three months before enrollment.
- Patients with an addiction to a legal or illegal drug, or with alcohol dependency.
- Patients who are pregnant or may become pregnant.
Patients who have not consented to the following contraceptive measures.
Patients will avoid sexual intercourse with sexual partners or should use the following contraceptive methods in these time periods: for male patients during the administration period of the trial and for six months after the end of administration; female patients during the administration period of the trial, and until a second menstrual period is confirmed after the end of administration (or in the case of female patients with no menstrual period, for two months after the end of administration).
•Male patients
The patient will always use a condom. For effective contraception, it is recommended that the female partner also use the contraceptive methods for female patients.
•Female patients
Female patients who may become pregnant should use one or more types of the following contraceptive methods. In addition, the male partner will always use a condom.
- Oral contraceptive (birth control pills)
- Intrauterine device (IUD)

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
SyB L-1101
In Cohort 1, SyB L-1101 1200 mg/day group, Participants were administered 1200 mg/day of SyB L-1101 intravenously for 3 consecutive days, followed by 11-day observation period. In Cohort 2, SyB L-1101 1800 mg/day group, Participants were administered 1800 mg/day of SyB L-1101 intravenously for 3 consecutive days, followed by 11-day observation period. For both Cohorts, the treatment period of 14 days constitutes 1 cycle, and the treatment was allowed for up to 8 cycles.
