Popis: In clinical studies of patients with severe thrombocytopenia, rescue treatments are used to prevent or stop bleeding. Estimating risk reductions of bleeding for clinical study medications can be challenging. This study evaluated a new and possibly more accurate way of assessing the effects of a treatment intervention on bleeding-related outcomes. We developed a composite endpoint, termed bleeding-related episodes (BRE).
