Unless otherwise indicated, endpoint measures within 30 days of activation (whether or not on the drug), OR adjusted for study site and disease group.
HR, hazard ratio; MD, difference of means; OR, odds ratio; RBC, red blood cells; VOD, veno-occlusive disease.
The WHO grading system was used to determine the severity of bleeding (supplemental File 2, Appendix A).
Analysis based on imputed data.
Includes all days without a bleed of grade ≥2, both days before a bleed occurs and after it resolves. Many patients experienced multiple severe bleeds.
Restricted mean and restricted standard deviation from time of activation until 30 days based on Kaplan-Meier curves.
A list of grade 3 and grade 4 bleeds and their sites is provided in supplemental File 2, Appendix G.
For a given subject, we calculated the days with thrombocytopenia (<10 000 per µL) and (a) platelet transfusions or (b) RBC transfusions or (c) any bleeding out of the total number of thrombocytopenic days. These proportions are then summarized across patients.
Uses safety population (all patients who received study drug).
A prespecified subgroup of those with and without bleeding at baseline was not analyzed or reported due to small numbers.
