Expected adverse events: may be drug-related (predicted by the mechanism of action of the drug or its evaluation in purpose-bred animals or other species), disease-related (predicted by the literature or experiential evidence in the veterinary oncology space), and/or study-related (i.e. associated with participation in the study; for example sedated procedures within the study).
Unexpected adverse events: all other adverse events that occur in the conduct of a study. It is important to note that expected adverse events may be defined as unexpected based on unexpected severity, pattern of response to supportive measures, or duration of the event.
