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.
