Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Medical assessment documented that the abdominal pain, fever, confusion were serious adverse events that led to hospital admission, whereas the reported anorexia did not result in hospitalisation.The medical assessment believes that all four reported adverse events are grade 3 (as described in the ctcae v5.0).The medical assessment concurs that all reported adverse events are related to the therasphere device.Anoreia, abdominal pain, fever and confusion are all listed as potential adverse events in the product labelling, and are therefore known risks associated with the use of therasphere.
