CI, confidence interval; mTOR, mammalian target of rapamycin.

Values are expressed as n (%) unless otherwise specified.

a

Percentages calculated based on denominator of patients with history of renal angiomyolipoma.

b

Percentages calculated from number of patients with renal angiomyolipoma ongoing during the study.

c

The numbers include patients who experienced more than one symptom simultaneously.

d

Treatment received as monotherapy or polytherapy.
