  1. MedDRA version 22.1. All doses of artefenomel and ferroquine are expressed as adult-equivalent doses
  2. Data presented are the number (%) of patients with at least 1 TEAE in the Safety Set
  3. TEAEs were AEs that developed or worsened or became serious during the on-treatment phase, i.e. time from the start of the first dose of study drug administration (included) up to the Day 63 visit (included)
  4. Table sorted by decreasing frequency of preferred term in pooled treatment arms
  5. aQTc prolongation was to be recorded as an AE (preferred term 'electrocardiogram QT prolonged') if it met any of the following criteria (i) symptomatic, (ii) requiring either corrective treatment or consultation, (iii) leading to treatment discontinuation or modification of dosing, (iv) fulfilling a seriousness criterion, (v) met the criteria for an AESI (QTcF ≥ 500 ms or QTcF prolongation > 60 ms from baseline)
