  15. Summary of the Number of Participants With at Least One Adverse Event, With Severity Determined According to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 5.0 (NCI CTCAE v5.0)

    Timeframe: From study drug dose until safety follow-up visit (up to 7 months)

    The adverse event (AE) severity grading scale NCI CTCAE v5.0 was used for assessing AE severity. Any AEs for which the NCI CTCAE v5.0 did not provide a grading scale, the standard four-point scale from 1 to 4 (mild, moderate, severe, life-threatening) was used. The terms "severe" and "serious" are not synonymous and are independently assessed for each AE. Multiple occurrences of AEs were counted only once per participant at the highest (worst) grade. AEs to monitor included administration-related reactions, hypersensitivity and anaphylaxis, diarrhoea, rash, cardiac dysfunction, neutropenia or febrile neutropenia, mucositis, and interstitial lung disease.

  16. Change From Baseline Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) Over Time

    Timeframe: Baseline, once between Days 20 and 35, and once between Days 56 and 63

    Echocardiography was used to assess left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) values. The screening LVEF assessment had to be performed within ≤28 days prior to randomization and the LVEF value must have been ≥55% to be eligible for the study.

  17. Change From Baseline Pulse Rate Over Time

    Timeframe: Baseline, Days 2, 7, 22, and 63

    Vital sign measurements were taken after the participant had remained resting in a semi-supine position for at least 5 minutes. The minimum and maximum values are, respectively, the smallest and largest values obtained at any point after baseline, including any repeat and unscheduled measurements.

  18. Change From Baseline Respiratory Rate Over Time

    Timeframe: Baseline, Days 2, 7, 22, and 63

    Vital sign measurements were taken after the participant had remained resting in a semi-supine position for at least 5 minutes. The minimum and maximum values are, respectively, the smallest and largest values obtained at any point after baseline, including any repeat and unscheduled measurements.

  19. Change From Baseline Systolic Blood Pressure Over Time

    Timeframe: Baseline, Days 2, 7, 22, and 63

    Vital sign measurements were taken after the participant had remained resting in a semi-supine position for at least 5 minutes. The minimum and maximum values are, respectively, the smallest and largest values obtained at any point after baseline, including any repeat and unscheduled measurements.

  20. Change From Baseline Diastolic Blood Pressure Over Time

    Timeframe: Baseline, Days 2, 7, 22, and 63

    Vital sign measurements were taken after the participant had remained resting in a semi-supine position for at least 5 minutes. The minimum and maximum values are, respectively, the smallest and largest values obtained at any point after baseline, including any repeat and unscheduled measurements.

  21. Number of Participants With Normal or Abnormal Electrocardiogram Results at Baseline and Post-Baseline Anytime, as Determined by the Investigator

    Timeframe: At Baseline (predose) and Post-Baseline (postdose Days 2, 7, 22, and 63)

    For safety monitoring purposes, the investigator was required to review, sign, and date all electrocardiogram (ECG) reports. Any morphologic waveform changes or other ECG abnormalities were documented by the investigator. Post-baseline, if all examinations were normal, then it was categorized as 'Normal'. If any abnormality was reported, then it was categorized as 'Abnormal'. 'Clinically significant' is a subset of the abnormal category.

  22. Number of Participants With Adverse Events Based on Laboratory Test Abnormalities

    Timeframe: From Baseline until Day 63

    Not every laboratory abnormality qualified as an adverse event. A laboratory test result had to be reported as an adverse event if it met any of the following criteria: was accompanied by clinical symptoms; resulted in a change in study treatment; resulted in a medical intervention or a change in concomitant therapy; was clinically significant in the investigator's judgment.

  23. Pain Score at the Injection Site, Assessed by the Participant Using the 100-millimetre (mm) Visual Analog Scale

    Timeframe: Day 1: pre-dose, during drug injection, after drug injection while removing the device or syringe, and 2 hours after drug injection

    Pain intensity scores were assessed by the participants using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) on a line measuring between 0 mm ('no pain') and 100 mm ('unbearable pain'). The VAS was completed in both study arms to assess the level of pain experienced by the participant in relation to the injection of Phesgo. On Day 1, pain assessments were performed prior to, during, and immediately after injection of Phesgo when the needle or device was removed, and 2 hours after injection.

  24. Number of Participants With Skin Irritation and Sensitization Reactions at the Injection Site, as Reported by Investigators in the Device Monitoring Questionnaire

    Timeframe: Prior to injection and after injection on Day 1

    Skin irritation and sensitization reactions at the site of injection caused by the adhesion of the OBDS to the skin were assessed by the study staff using the device monitoring questionnaire in the eCRF. Dermal effects were reported on a scale from 0 (no evidence or irritation) to 7 (strong reaction spreading beyond test site). Other effects were reported on a separate scale from 0 (no evidence) to 7 (small petechial eruptions or scabs).

  25. Number of Participants by Their Ratings of the Comfort of Wearing the On-Body Delivery System Device, as Reported in the Device Monitoring Questionnaire

    Timeframe: Day 1

    Participants in the Phesgo OBDS arm completed the device monitoring questionnaire the injection with the OBDS. The questionnaire assessed the following criteria: ease of device attachment, attachment during the injection, ease of device removal, and overall wearing comfort, which were each rated on a three-point scale as "Good", "Acceptable", or "Poor".
