The pathophysiology of ineffective erythropoiesis in [beta]-thalassemia is poorly understood. We report that RAP-011, an activin receptor IIA (ActRIIA) ligand trap, improved ineffective erythropoiesis, corrected anemia and limited iron overload in a mouse model of [beta]-thalassemia intermedia. Expression of growth differentiation factor 11 (GDF11)...
