An adverse event (AE) is any noxious, unintended, or untoward medical occurrence that may appear or worsen in a participant during the course of a study. It may be a new intercurrent illness, a worsening concomitant illness, an injury, or any concomitant impairment of the participant's health, including laboratory test values, regardless of etiology. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in the frequency or intensity of a preexisting condition) should be considered an AE. Graded according to NCI CTCAE (Version 4.03) guidelines where grade 1 = mild, grade 2 = moderate, grade 3 = severe, grade 4 = life threatening, grade 5 = death.
