SAE, Serious adverse event; SAB, Safety adjudication board; INR, international normalized ratio; DVT, deep venous thrombosis; AF, atrial fibrillation; PICC, peripheral into central circulation; CVA, cerebrovascular accident; MI, myocardial infarction; NG, nasogastric; TIA, transient ischemic attack; PE, pulmonary embolism.
Onset study day of thromboembolic event, day of study product infusion is day 1.
No: event deemed unrelated to the study product in the opinion of the investigator/SAB. Yes: event deemed at least possibly related to the study product in the opinion of the investigator/SAB. SAB evaluated only events that were SAEs and did not assess causality if the event was not confirmed as a thromboembolic one.
The vena cava filter insertion (K4) was not considered a thromboembolic event by the lead author. The Food and Drug Administration assessed some of the adverse events and thromboembolic events differently from the study investigators/SAB, resulting in a difference in the numbers of thromboembolic events reported in the package insert for the 4F-PCC in the United States (Kcentra)19 compared with published study results.14, 15
Acute CVA was diagnosed on day 56 but included in the thromboembolic event analysis because of uncertain timing related to the start of the event.
