n, number of subjects; %, percentage of subjects calculated relative to the total number of subjects in the treatment arm. MedDRA (Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities) V.21.1 was used to code AEs. A TEAE is defined as an AE that first occurred or worsened in severity after the first dose of the study treatment.

*TEASE by organ class/preferred term were: 1 pt with hepatobiliary disorders/cholecystitis; 1 pt with immune system disorders/anaphylactic reaction; 3 pts with infections and infestations/cellulitis (1pt), pilonidal cyst (1pt), sepsis (1pt); 3 pts with investigations/alanine aminotransferase increased (1pt), aspartate aminotransferase increased (1pt), transaminases increased (1pt); 2 pts with musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders/intervertebral disc protrusion (1pt), musculoskeletal chest pain (1pt); 1pt with psychiatric disorders/anxiety and 1 pt with vascular disorders/hypertensive crisis.

pt, patient; TEAE, treatment-emergent adverse event; TESAE, treatment-emergent serious adverse event.
