  • All study treatments were administered once daily.

  • Six patients had dose reduction or were temporarily discontinued due to an AE (1 [2.2%] with fosdagrocorat 1 mg, 1 [2.1%] with fosdagrocorat 5 mg, 1 [2.2%] with fosdagrocorat 10 mg and 3 [6.4%] with placebo); three were considered treatment-related (1 [2.2%] with fosdagrocorat 1 mg and 2 [4.3%] with placebo).

  • *Fatigue (n=1) and neutropaenia (n=1): neutropaenia was mild to moderate and related to study drug; no action was taken with regard to study drug and both events resolved.

  • †Hypertension (n=3).

  • ‡Hypertension (n=1): treatment-related leading to discontinuation after one dose of study drug.

  • §Insomnia (n=1) and hypertension (1 patient; 2 events).

  • ¶Dyslipidaemia (n=1).

  • **Dyslipidaemia (n=1) and neutropaenia (n=1): neutropaenia was mild and related to study drug; no action was taken with regard to study drug and both events resolved.

  • AE, adverse event;D/C, discontinuation;n, number of patients;SAE, serious adverse event;TEAE, treatment-emergent adverse event.
