An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a medicinal product based on appropriate medical judgment. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal finding or lack of expected pharmacological action), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not related to that medicinal product.
Time frame: Up to Week 96
An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a medicinal product based on appropriate medical judgment.
