Patients in the M/M arm started mitapivat treatment at baseline; patients in the P/M arm started mitapivat treatment at week 24.

95% CI was calculated based on t-distribution.

The baseline is defined as the average of all screening assessments within 45 (42 + 3) days before randomization for patients randomized and not dosed, or before the start of study treatment for patients randomized and dosed. Assessments collected within 61 days after a transfusion were excluded from the baseline derivation.

The baseline for LIC by MRI is defined as the last assessment before randomization for patients randomized and not dosed, or the last assessment before the start of study treatment for patients randomized and dosed.

Median (Q1, Q3) was reported for LIC by MRI in addition to mean (SD) [95% CI] because of 2 incorrectly reported values, which were included in the analysis. These 2 outlier values for LIC limit the interpretation of the summaries of mean change in LIC from baseline to week 24; data for mean change from baseline to week 96 were not affected.

§

Patients were considered to have iron overload at baseline if they met at least 1 of 3 criteria: baseline ferritin of >1000 μg/L, baseline LIC of >3 mg Fe/g dw, and/or chelation therapy within the last year before start of treatment with mitapivat.
