Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 0 0
Number of Participants Who Experienced One or More Adverse Events
Assessment method [1] 0 0
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a study participant administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not related to the medicinal product.
Timepoint [1] 0 0
Up to 42 days after initial dose of study treatment
Primary outcome [2] 0 0
Number of Participants Who Discontinued Study Treatment Due to An Adverse Event
Assessment method [2] 0 0
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a study participant administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not related to the medicinal product.
