TEAE, treatment-emergent adverse event.

a

Three patients randomized to the rucaparib group (age <65 years, n = 2; age 75 years, n = 1) did not receive a dose of rucaparib and are excluded from the safety population.

b

Excluding disease progression.

c

Non–disease progression TEAEs leading to death: acute myeloid leukemia, n = 1; cardiac arrest, n = 1; myelodysplastic syndrome, n = 1.

d

Non–disease progression TEAE leading to death: hematophagic histiocytosis.

e

Non–disease progression TEAE leading to death: pulmonary embolism.

f

Non–disease progression TEAE leading to death: high grade B-cell lymphoma.
