Brief Summary
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an important treatment for hematological malignancies. Poor erythroid engraftment after transplantation is a serious complication, especially in patients with moderate to severe myelofibrosis (MF). Currently, there is a lack of effective prevention strategies for poor erythroid engraftment after transplantation. Luspatercept, a novel TGF-β superfamily signaling pathway modulator, has shown potential in small-sample studies for the treatment and prevention of post-transplant anemia. Given the high proportion and poor prognosis of poor engraftment function in hematological malignancies with moderate to severe myelofibrosis after transplantation, we plan to conduct a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled study to explore the efficacy and safety of luspatercept in preventing poor erythroid engraftment after allo-HSCT in hematological malignancies with moderate to severe myelofibrosis.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Cumulative incidence of poor erythroid engraftment
Poor erythroid engraftment after allo-HSCT is defined as HGB \< 70g/L at 28 days post-transplantation and the inability to discontinue red blood cell transfusion in the case of complete donor engraftment.

Interventions
On the 7th day after allo-HSCT, the first dose of Luspatercept 1.0mg/kg was administered subcutaneously. If the peripheral blood HGB was \< 70g/L on the 21st day after allo-HSCT, the second dose of Luspatercept 1.0mg/kg was given subcutaneously; if the peripheral blood HGB was ≥ 70g/L on the 21st day after allo-HSCT, no second dose of Luspatercept subcutaneous injection was given.
The patient will receive the best supportive treatment including blood transfusion.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age 18-65 years old, gender not restricted;
- ECOG score 0-2 points;
- Hematological malignancies with moderate to severe myelofibrosis
- Willing to undergo the first allo-HSCT with a suitable donor
- In a CR state before transplantation.
You may not qualify if:
- Has previously undergone allo-HSCT;
- ECOG score is 3-5;
- Expected lifespan after transplantation is less than 30 days;
- Has severe cardiac dysfunction, severe arrhythmia or severe pulmonary dysfunction (obstructive and/or restrictive ventilation disorder);
- Has severe liver dysfunction, with liver function indicators (aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin (TBIL)) more than twice the upper limit of normal;
- Has severe renal dysfunction, with creatinine (Cr) more than twice the upper limit of normal or 24-hour creatinine clearance rate (Ccr) lower than 30 ml/min;
- Has severe active bleeding;
- Patients judged by the investigator to be unsuitable for participating in this trial.
