aPatients received lansoprazole 15 mg daily

bPatients received gefarnate 50 mg twice daily

cLog-rank test

dThe number of patients at risk included all full analysis set patients who received at least one endoscopy assessment post-randomization, and had no acute-stage or healing-stage gastric or duodenal ulcer as confirmed by the Independent Adjudication Committee

eThe ‘component’ section is intended to indicate the components of the endpoints given above and not the endpoints themselves. Hence, the hazard ratios and P values have not been calculated
