Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 30
An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that develops or worsens in severity during the conduct of a clinical study and does not necessarily have a causal relationship to the study drug. SAEs included death, a life-threatening adverse event, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event that jeopardized the participant and required medical intervention to prevent 1 of the outcomes listed in this definition. TEAE was defined as an AE that started or increased in intensity on or after the date of first dose of study drug in this study 12712A. A summary of serious and non-serious AEs regardless of causality is located in 'Reported Adverse Events module'.
