| Outcome Measures: |
Primary: Change From Baseline (CFB) in Hemaglobin (Hgb) at Week 4, Baseline was defined as the value on Day 1. CFB was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the post-dose value at Week 4. To model the dose-response relationship a four-parameter Emax model was used. E0 is the expected Hgb change from Baseline for a participant receiving placebo and experiencing the average Hgb Baseline observed in the study. Emax is the expected Hgb change from Baseline for a participant receiving the highest dose above which no further increase in response can be achieved. ED50 is the dose that attains the intermediate response. Gamma is the slope parameter. Minimal Effective Dose (MED) is defined as the smallest dose that achieves a placebo-corrected change of 0.5 g/dL over Week 4. Target dose (TD) is defined as the dose that achieves a placebo-corrected 1.0 g/dL change over Week 4.
