Type, Intensity, and Frequency of Adverse Events (AEs)
An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject taking part in a clinical trial. Proportion of subjects with any AE (serious or non-serious) and intensity of AEs (classified as mild, moderate or severe) are presented.
Time frame: From treatment Day 1 to end-of-trial, approximately 10 weeks
Population: The safety analysis set comprised all randomized subjects who received at least one pulsatile delivery of IMP. The number count is based on the actual treatment subjects received: one subject randomized to LutrePulse 15 µg/Pulse had received placebo and was moved to the placebo group in the safety analysis set (LutrePulse 15 µg/Pulse: n=8, Placebo: n=11)
