An AE was defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered an investigational (medicinal) product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. SAE was defined as a medical event that at any dose resulted in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; was life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or required or prolonged hospitalization. Treatment-related AE was defined as an AE that had certain, probable, possible, or unknown relationship to study drug.
