6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

The safety data described in this section reflect exposure to ZYNTEGLO in two open-label, single-arm clinical trials and one long-term follow-up study, in which 41 patients with β-thalassemia requiring regular transfusions were treated with ZYNTEGLO [see Clinical Studies (14) ].

The median (min, max) age across the trials was 13 (4, 34) years;

49% were females;

49% were Asian, 44% White, 5% Other, 2% Not Reported.

The median (min, max) duration of follow-up was 27.2 (4.1, 48.2) months.

In the two trials, serious adverse reactions occurred in 37% of patients as of last follow-up.
