§4.1Adverse events reported in controlled trials
Table 4. Adverse events for Petrelintide as reported in the trial safety tables the Institute holds. Percentages are of randomised participants in the stated trial and arm.
| Event | Active, % | Comparator, % | Difference, pp | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nausea | 21.0 | 9.0 | +12.0 | Phase 1b (highest dose) |
| Vomiting | 7.0 | 2.0 | +5.0 | Phase 1b |
| Injection-site reaction | 11.0 | 4.0 | +7.0 | Phase 1b |
| Discontinuation for adverse events | 4.0 | 2.0 | +2.0 | Phase 1b |
| A difference column is computed by the Institute from the two reported percentages and is not itself a published figure. Confidence intervals for adverse-event differences are not reported in the contributing trials and are not constructed here. | ||||
