AEs and SAEs

Adverse Event (AE): any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.

In ZEDS, adverse events that result in temporary or permanent discontinuation of study medication will be required to be reported to the CC.

Information about study medication discontinuation is captured on the Study Medication Form

AEs and SAEs

Serious Adverse Events (SAE): any untoward medical occurrence that results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or is a congenital anomaly/birth defect.

In ZEDS, the following events are also treated as SAEs: Acute kidney failure requiring temporary or permanent dialysis eGFR <30 Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura/hemolytic uremic syndrome

(TTP/HUS) Central nervous system toxic/metabolic encephalopathy (agitation,

hallucinations, confusion and delirium) Seizures

5

AEs and SAEs

Why is it important to submit SAEs in TrialMaster?

SAEs are subject to review by the ZEDS medical monitors.

Unexpected or related SAEs (SUSAR), and TTP/HUS events should be reported on the SAE form within 24 hours of knowledge of the event. SUSARs are reportable to the FDA within 15 calendar days of

knowledge of the event or with 7 days if it is a fatal or life threatening event.

All other SAEs should be reported as soon as possible. Not reportable to the FDA

ClinPhone Alerts and Warnings:

Potential patients who have been pre-screened are not submitted into ClinPhone ®

DO NOT RUSH!

Read any warning messages and alerts that pop up.

Carefully review the data before clicking on the submit button.

Potential patients who have been pre-screened are not submitted into ClinPhone ®

A record of these patients should be kept in your screening logs

Non-Study Visit Forms

Non-study visits include all routine care visits for eye exams between study visits. They occur for a variety of reasons including:

o new complaints due to HZOo scheduled follow-up for HZOo to pick up study medication if bottle is lost or damagedo problems in the non-study eyeo pre and post eye surgery

Study participants should be instructed to inform the coordinator and/or study investigator if they are going to be seen, or have been seen, by an ophthalmologist outside of the PCC to ensure that a copy of the outside office record is sent to the study investigator and/or coordinator as soon as possible.

19

Non-Study Visit Forms

Non-study visits in TrialMaster® are affiliated with a follow-up visit. On the study visit form, question 1a asks for the number of visits to an

ophthalmologist related to the study eye since the last protocol visit. Once a number is entered, the non-study visit forms become available in TrialMaster®.

At the time on the non-study visit, the applicable paper case report forms should be completed and place in the study participant’s records.

At the time of the next study follow-up visit, the non-study visit forms can be entered into TrialMaster®.

Timeline for Bloodwork and Randomization

A serum creatinine blood test for eGFR determination will be prescribed at the screening visit to be performed within 30 days prior to the enrollment visit. The 30 day window refers to the date of collection of the blood sample,

not the date of analysis of the blood sample. If an eGFR has already been completed within 30 days of the

enrollment visit and the results are available, it is not necessary to have a repeat test.

If it is determined that the enrollment visit will occur > 30 days after the screening visit, the blood test should be delayed. Ex: Study participants who have chronic onset HZO and have a “flare-

up” of the disease should be advised to wait until close to the end of the treatment period to have the blood test.

Ex: Study participant who are eligible to be rescreened with 3 months Zoster vaccination Participation in another interventional clinical trial
