Eligibility Criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria:
- Male or female ≥18 years of age, at the time of signing informed consent.
- Diagnosis of PMF, post-PV MF, or post-ET MF according to the 2017 World Health Organization criteria.
Arm-specific criteria:
Arm 1A:
- Previously treated with JAK inhibitor(s) or Participant is ineligible for JAK inhibitor(s)
- Anemia, defined as hemoglobin ≤10 g/dL during screening, or receiving RBC transfusions
Arm 2A:
- Previously treated with JAK inhibitor(s) or Participant is ineligible for JAK inhibitor(s)
- Anemia, defined as hemoglobin ≤10 g/dL during screening, or receiving RBC transfusions
Arm-specific criteria for 1B and 2B:
- Has been receiving ruxolitinib for ≥8 weeks prior to C1D1 and on a stable dose for ≥4 weeks prior to C1D1.
- Anemia, defined as hemoglobin ≤10 g/dL during screening, or receiving RBC transfusions
Key Exclusion Criteria:
Presence of the following cardiac conditions:
- New York Heart Association Class 3 or 4 heart failure
- QTcF >500 msec on the screening or C1D1 electrocardiogram (ECG)
- Uncontrolled clinically significant arrhythmia (participants with rate-controlled atrial fibrillation are not excluded)
- Acute myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris <6 months prior to C1D1
- History of stroke, deep venous thrombosis, or arterial embolism within 6 months prior to C1D1.
- Any malignancy other than PMF, post-ET MF, or post-PV MF that has not been in remission and/or has required systemic therapy including radiation, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, or surgery, within 1 year prior to C1D1. In-situ cancers, squamous cell, and basal cell carcinomas which have been fully excised, and monoclonal gammopathy of unclear significance are allowed at the discretion of the Investigator.
- History of solid organ or hematological transplantation.
- Presence of uncontrolled hypertension, defined as systolic blood pressure ≥150 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure ≥100 mm Hg despite adequate treatment.
- Diagnosis of hemolytic anemia, active bleeding, hemoglobinopathies, or congenital disorders as a cause of the participant's anemia.
- CTCAE Grade ≥2 bleeding events within the 3 months prior to C1D1.
- Bone marrow blast percentage >2%. Participants with blast % between 2-5% are allowed if at least 2 bone marrows >6 months apart demonstrate stability of blast percentage, these participants must be reviewed with the Medical Monitor prior to study entry.
- Prior treatment with luspatercept, sotatercept, or other commercially available or investigational TGF-β inhibitors (all Arms)
Treatment within 28 days prior to C1D1 with:
- Erythropoiesis stimulating agent (ESA)
- Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)
