a

Patients with multiple occurrences are counted only once in any category. Safety population included patients who received at least one dose of study drug. Adverse events coded using MedDRA version 14.1. Treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE) are events that occurred or worsened on or after the day of first dose of the study drug and within 30 d after last administration of study drug.

b

Based on summary term comprising agranulocytosis, decreased neutrophil count, febrile neutropenia, granulocytopenia, neutropenia, neutropenic sepsis, and pancytopenia.
