All adverse events regardless of causality that occurred during the treatment period plus 30 days. Thirty-six patients (31%) had treatment interruptions because of treatment-emergent adverse events, mainly as a result of neurologic events and flu-like symptoms. Those occurring in ≥2% of patients included pyrexia (8%) and aphasia, encephalopathy, overdose, tremor, ALT increased, AST increased, and chills (3% each).
ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase.
Among all patients. Multiple events may have occurred in some patients.
