One episode of shoulder pain, and 1 preexisting PE.
VOC is defined as acute clinical events that has no evident cause other than SCD, including acute episodes of pain requiring treatment with parenteral opioids at a medical facility, acute chest syndrome, hepatic sequestration, splenic sequestration, and priapism. Two of 4 VOCs were possibly related to the study drug, both occurred during the drug taper.
