  1. Safety SetP1, Safety SetP2. Adverse events were classified according to their system organ class and preferred term (MedDRA version 14.0).
  2. TEAEs were adverse events occurring during the treatment period up to 30 days after the last treatment administration.
  3. n = number of patients with at least one event in given preferred term; % = percentage of patients with at least one event relative to the number of patients in each treatment group (N) in the Safety Sets.
