An Adverse Event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence (eg, noxious or pathological changes) in a subject or clinical investigation subject compared with pre-existing conditions, that occurs during any period of a clinical trial. An AE is defined as being independent of assumption of any causality (eg, to study or concomitant medication, primary or concomitant disease, or study design).
