ADE, adverse device effect (includes both device-related and injection procedure-related ADEs); TEAE, treatment-emergent adverse event. Any missing severity, relationship, or outcome was not imputed, but was classified as missing. Patients with more than one TEAE in a particular category (system organ class/preferred term) were counted only once in that category. * TEAEs were any events not present before the study device injection or any events already present that worsened in either intensity or frequency after the study device injection. Occurring in ≥3% of patients.
