- Diagnosis of low or intermediate-1 risk MDS with any chromosome karyotype except del
5q[31]

- Anemia that requires red blood cell transfusions

- Resistant to erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESAs) or blood erythropoietin level >
500 mU/mL

- Must agree to receive counseling related to teratogenic and other risks of
lenalidomide
