FDA accepted the supplemental Biologics License Application sBLA and the European Medicines Agency has validated the Type II Variation Application for Reblozyl (luspatercept-aamt) to expand its current indication to include treatment of anemia without previous use of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents in adult patients with very low- to intermediate-risk myelodysplastic syndromes who may require red blood cell transfusions.

ASCP submitted an amicus brief supporting the plaintiffs.
