What was measured
Number of subjects according to originally received treatment that experienced a serious adverse event through 18 months post-randomization or prior to being censored from analyses due to crossover, switching to open-label treatment, or best medical judgment for censor. Events are categorized by coded system organ classes (SOC). Within each SOC, a participant was counted once if the participant reported one or more events coded to that SOC.
Analysis population: Intent-to-treat
