SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Adverse events were collected from the screening visit to month 12 (total 13 months); Serious Adverse Events were collected from the time that informed consent was obtained to 30 days after last dose of study drug (up to 13 months)

Population: The safety population included all participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug and for whom safety data was collected after administration of the first dose of study drug .

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. An Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) is any noxious and undesired reaction related to an experimental drug or experiment. A serious adverse event (SAE) is an AE that results in death, is life-threatening, results in or prolongs hospitalization, results in congenital anomaly, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, spontaneous or elective abortion, or requires intervention to prevent a serious outcome. AEs were rated for severity as either Mild: transient and easily tolerated; Moderate: causes discomfort and interrupts usual activities; or Severe: causes considerable interference with usual activities, may be incapacitating or life-threatening. AEs related to Zemplar (paricalcitol) were assessed as being either probably or possibly related by the investigator.
