1.Primary Outcome
Title Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Hide Description TEAE was any event not present prior to exposure to study drug or any event already present that worsened in either intensity or frequency following exposure to test drug. Serious AE (SAE) was any event that resulted in death, immediately life threatening, hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect. Number of participants with TEAEs, SAEs, TEAE's relationship to study drug (unrelated, possible and probable) and on the basis of severity (mild [minimal/no treatment and did not interfere with daily activities], moderate [resulted in a low level of inconvenience or concern with the therapeutic measures and may have caused some interference with functioning] and severe [interrupted participant's usual daily activity, may have required systemic drug therapy or other treatment and were usually incapacitating]) with a frequency threshold of above 5% were reported.
Time Frame Up to Month 12 or early termination

Certain Agreements
Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.
There IS an agreement between Principal Investigators and the Sponsor (or its agents) that restricts the PI's rights to discuss or publish trial results after the trial is completed.
Restrictions vary in accordance with each agreement with the individual investigators. Sponsor will allow publication after a multi-center publication has been published or after an agreed period of time if no such multi-center publication is submitted for publication. Sponsor can ask that Sponsor's confidential information be removed from any publication and can defer publication for a period of time to allow for Sponsor to obtain patent or other intellectual property right protection.
