Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Post-Marketing Surveillance Study on NesinaAct® Tablet Use Among Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Participants in Korea (NCT NCT04980014)

NCT ID: NCT04980014

Last Updated: 2022-03-07

Results Overview

An SAE is an adverse event resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Serious ADRs are defined as SAEs that are, in the investigator's opinion, of causal relationship to the study treatment. 95% Confidence Interval was calculated using exact method.

An AE is any and all undesirable or unintended signs (including abnormal clinical laboratory values), symptoms, or disease that are incurred when the drug is administered, and is not related to causal relationship with the drug. An ADR is a harmful and unintended reaction resulting from usual administration and use of the drug, whose causal relationship with the drug cannot be excluded, and if causal relationship with the drug is unknown among AEs reported spontaneously, it is regarded as ADR. An unexpected ADR is an ADR with difference in the nature or severity, specificity, or the outcome, compared to the product licensure/notification of the drug. 95% Confidence Interval was calculated using exact method.
