anti-erythropoietin antibodies
What it means is that the neutralizing antibodies recognise (are 'against') erythropoietin. The way you say this is 'neutralizing anti-erythropoietin antibodies'. The refs below are all from pure red-cell aplasia, as in your text.
Pure red-cell aplasia (PRCA) after erythropoietin (Epo) administration due to the appearance of neutralizing anti-Epo antibodies has been reported in over 200 cases between 1998 and 2002.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&d...
Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) caused by neutralising anti-erythropoietin antibodies is a very rare disease.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&d...
There have been several recent reports of pure red-cell aplasia (PRCA) mediated by anti-erythropoietin antibodies (AEA) in patients with chronic renal failure treated with recombinant human erythropoietin (EPO).
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&d...
Pure red cell aplasia with anti-erythropoietin antibodies occurs more commonly with one formulation of epoetin alfa than another.

Anaemia in patients with kidney diseases is commonly treated with erythropoietin, known as EPO for short. ....
Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) means failure of red cells to develop. Other blood cells (white blood cells, platelets) are produced normally, or near normally, and this is an important difference from many other blood disorders. There are a number of other possible causes of PRCA, including some virus infections and some cancers, although sometimes no reason can be found. Occasionally it is caused by antibodies ***to** EPO.

\"...neutralizing antibodies to erythropoietin...\" is my suggestion.

: There is no 'official' ruling on the use of 'against' or 'to' when it comes to antibodies, both are commonly used. What is more standard is anti-XXX, where XXX is the antigen.

against
the antibodies are against some antigen in the erithropoyetin which neutralise it producing aplasia of red cells
