Inclusion Criteria

for Participants with MF and Anemia: Participants are eligible for the study if all of the following criteria apply:
Age 18 years or older at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF).

For Phase 2: In addition to the criteria above, DIPSS score of ≥2 (intermediate 1 risk) may also be included.
Washout of at least 28 days prior to Screening of the following treatments:
Immunomodulators (lenalidomide, thalidomide)
Luspatercept/sotatercept
Systemic corticosteroids are permitted for non-hematological conditions if stable or decreasing dose for ≥28 days prior to Screening and receiving an equivalent to ≤10 mg prednisone for the 28 days immediately prior to Screening. Screening can begin before the 28 day washout is completed, but the washout period must be completed prior to collection of Screening blood samples.
Anemia: For Phase 1b: Hgb \<10 g/dL on ≥3 assessments over 84 days prior to Screening, without RBC transfusion, or Hgb \<10 g/dL and receiving RBC transfusions periodically but not meeting criteria for TD participant as defined for the TD cohort. The baseline Hgb value for these participants is the lowest Hgb level during the 84 days prior to Screening, or RBC transfusion dependence, defined as an RBC transfusion frequency of ≥6 units PRBC over the 84 days immediately prior to Screening. There must not be any consecutive 42-day period without an RBC transfusion in the 84-day period, and the last transfusion must be within 28 days prior to Screening. For Phase 2: TD high transfusion burden cohort: RBC transfusion dependence, defined as an RBC transfusion requirement of 3 to 12 PRBC units over the 84 days immediately prior to Screening TD low transfusion burden cohort: RBC transfusion dependence, defined as an RBC transfusion requirement of 1 to 2 PRBC units over the 84 days immediately prior to Screening nTD Cohort: Non-transfusion dependence, baseline Hgb \<10 g/dL as defined on ≥3 assessments over 84 days prior to Screening, without RBC transfusion

Hydroxyurea, or, if taking any other treatment for MF, stable for at least 28 days prior to Screening.
Interferon alpha stable dosing for at least 12 weeks prior to Screening.
JAK inhibitors require 12 weeks of stable dosing prior to Screening. For the TD high, TD low, and nTD cohorts, JAK inhibitors allowed include momelotinib, pacritinib, fedratinib, and ruxolitinib.
If the participant discontinues JAK inhibitor (including momelotinib/pacritinib/ruxolitinib/fedratinib) and/or hydroxyurea prior to Screening, a 60-day washout period is required.
