Study Comparing Efficacy and Safety of Defibrotide vs Best Supportive Care in the Prevention of Hepatic Veno-Occlusive Disease in Adult and Pediatric Patients

VOD-free survival is a composite of survival status and VOD occurrence as determined by modified Seattle criteria adjudicated by a blinded independent EPAC. An event is defined as a VOD diagnosis (as assessed by the EPAC) or death, whichever, is earlier, up to and including Day +30 post-HSCT. The values reported below are participants who did not experience VOD or death by Day +30 post-HSCT.

VOD-free survival is a composite of survival status and VOD occurrence as determined by modified Seattle criteria adjudicated by a blinded independent EPAC. An event is defined as a VOD diagnosis (as assessed by the EPAC) or death, whichever, is earlier, up to and including Day +100 post-HSCT. The values reported below are participants who did not experience VOD or death by Day +100 post-HSCT.

The number of participants who were diagnosed with VOD based on the Modified Seattle Criteria as per blinded EPAC assessment. The percentage was calculated out of the total number of participants in each arm of the study. The values reported below are the numbers and percentages of participants who experienced VOD by Day +30 post-HSCT.

VOD-free survival is a composite of survival status and VOD occurrence as determined by modified Seattle criteria. An event is defined as a VOD diagnosis or death, whichever, is earlier, up to and including Day +180 post-HSCT. The diagnosis of VOD through Day +100 post-HSCT was based on Endpoint Adjudication Committee (EPAC), and the diagnosis of VOD after Day +100 post-HSCT was based on investigator assessments. The values reported below are participants who did not experience VOD or death by Day +180 post-HSCT.

NRM is defined as death that occurs after HSCT in participants who were noted as having malignant primary disease on the disease history electronic case report form (eCRF) and do not have primary disease relapse post-HSCT.

VOD-associated MOD is defined for participants as occurring if the investigator answers "Yes" to the question "Has the participant been diagnosed with VOD associated MOD?" in the electronic case report form (eCRF). The values below are the number of participants who received the answer, "Yes."

The proportion of participants who had resolution of VOD by Day +180 post-HSCT is reported as a percentage.

Time to Resolution of VOD is calculated as follows: Time to Resolution of VOD= [Date of VOD resolution] - [Date of VOD diagnosis by investigator].

The values shown are the number and percentage of participants with VOD after day +30 post-HSCT and on or before Days +100 and +180 post-HSCT. The diagnosis of VOD through Day +100 post-HSCT was made by Endpoint Adjudication Committee (EPAC), and the diagnosis of VOD after Day +100 post-HSCT was based on investigator assessments.

For each of the five dimensions of mobility, self-care, activity, pain, and anxiety based on the descriptive system of the EQ-5D-5L, the numbers and percentages of participants for all categories (the three levels of reported problems and question not completed) at Day +180 Post-HSCT was assessed. Each dimension was categorized as follows: Condition improved, if the reported level of problem is lower at the assessment than baseline; condition unchanged, if the reported level of problem remains the same; condition deteriorated, if the reported level of problem is higher at that assessment than at baseline; and unknown, if the reported level of problem is missing either at baseline or at that assessment.

Cmax is the maximum defibrotide plasma concentration, obtained directly from the observed data. Cmax is a summary statistic and it is not reported on an hourly basis. If veno-occlusive disease (VOD) occurs, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the day before the start date of rescue defibrotide. If VOD does not occur, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the date of study completion/early termination.

AUClast is the area under the defibrotide concentration-time curve from 0 (pre-dose) to time of last quantifiable defibrotide concentration at time "t". AUClast is a summary statistic and it is not reported on an hourly basis. If veno-occlusive disease (VOD) occurs, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the day before the start date of rescue defibrotide. If VOD does not occur, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the date of study completion/early termination.

Mean systemic clearance after intravenous dosing. Mean clearance is a summary statistic and it is not reported on an hourly basis. If veno-occlusive disease (VOD) occurs, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the day before the start date of rescue defibrotide. If VOD does not occur, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the date of study completion/early termination.

Mean volume of distribution following intravenous dosing. Mean volume of distribution is a summary statistic and it is not reported on an hourly basis.If veno-occlusive disease (VOD) occurs, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the day before the start date of rescue defibrotide. If VOD does not occur, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the date of study completion/early termination.

Cmax is the maximum defibrotide plasma concentration, obtained directly from the observed data. Cmax is a summary statistic and it is not reported on an hourly basis.

Graft failure is defined as participants that after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) never reached an absolute neutrophil count >0.5 x 10^9/L that is maintained for three consecutive days or a platelet count >20 x 10^9/L without a platelet transfusion in the preceding seven days. If veno-occlusive disease (VOD) occurs, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the day before the start date of rescue defibrotide. If VOD does not occur, the prophylaxis phase starts on the baseline date and ends on the date of study completion/early termination. For the subset of participants who developed VOD and received rescue defibrotide, the rescue treatment phase begins on the start date of rescue defibrotide and ends on the date of study completion/early termination.

The date of neutrophil engraftment was recorded on the electronic case report form (eCRF) and is defined as the first date after HSCT of an absolute neutrophil count >0.5 x 10^9/L that is maintained for three consecutive days. The definition of "absolute neutrophil count" includes both segmented neutrophils and "bands," immature neutrophils. The number of participants with neutrophil engraftment was assessed.

The date of platelet engraftment was recorded on the electronic case report form (eCRF) and is defined as the first date after HSCT of a platelet count >20 x 10^9/L without a platelet transfusion in the preceding seven days. The number of participants with platelet engraftment was assessed.
