Table 3. Agreement on likely causality of SAEs between central adjudicators and local investigators–dichotomous analysis.
Central Adjudicators | |||
---|---|---|---|
Local Investigators | Definitely not, Unlikely or Possibly | Probably or Definitely | Total |
Definitely not, Unlikely or Possibly | 1420 | 5 | 1425 |
Probably or Definitely | 15 | 12 | 27 |
Total | 1435 | 17 | 1452 |
Disagreements (%) | 15 (1%) | 5 (29%) | 20 (1%) |
Crude agreement = 1432/1452 = 99%
Unweighted kappa = 0.54 (0.49, 0.24)
21 events did not have relatedness of treatment to SAE recorded by either adjudicators or investigators (Central Adjudicators = 19, Local Investigators = 2) and so were not included in this analysis
