All-cause mortality and any bleeding are reported separately in Figure 2. We present the event rates and corresponding forest plots for each outcome in supplemental Data 4.

Presented as the difference in absolute risk of the outcome among patients treated with caplacizumab plus SOC (compared with those treated with SOC alone) per 1000 patients treated with caplacizumab.

Statistically significant (P < .05).
