Total number of AEs 14
Total participants experiencing ≥1 AE, n (%) 5 (71.4)
Serious AE 1 (14.3)
Grade ≥3 AE 1 (14.3)
Related AE 0
Local injection-site reaction 0
• No AEs led to treatment withdrawal or dose modification/interruption
• No unexpected changes in vital signs (except elevated blood pressure in 1 patient*) or
electrocardiogram
• No haematology findings and only mild (grade 1) changes in blood chemistry
• No anti-drug antibodies were detected
• Grade 3 serious AE was a worsening of pre-existing hypertension, which was not considered
related to emicizumab treatment
* The participants had elevated blood pressure at study entry and experienced another episode of grade 2 (moderate) hypertension
