Study design details

Main study objective

• Document maternal and fetal outcomes of each exposed pregnancy to further characterize the risk of mycophenolate fetal exposure.
• Determine mycophenolate exposure status for each reported pregnancy.
• Understand the circumstances that led to fetal exposure (pregnancy root cause analysis).
• Identify factors that affect the risk of adverse outcomes such as dose, timing of exposure, or maternal characteristics.

Outcomes

• Overall pregnancy outcome (spontaneous losses/miscarriages, live births, fetal deaths, and elective terminations)
• Any adverse fetal outcomes or birth defects that may be attributable to pregnancy exposure to mycophenolate
• Duration of mycophenolate exposure (peri-conception and by gestational period)
• Mycophenolate product dose and regimen
• Indication for mycophenolate product use
• Maternal medical/demographic characteristics
• Root cause analysis: intended vs. unintended pregancies, contraception use, and education (occurrence of educational counseling on the risks of birth defects with mycophenolate therapy)
• Gestational age at completion or termination of the pregnancy
• Pregnancy complications and fetal outcomes, including birth defects, birth weight and length and neurodevelopmental status
• In spontaneous losses, elective terminations and stillbirths, any birth defects identified prenatally or reported based on pathology reports

Data analysis plan

All statistical analyses and reporting will be performed semi-annually, for regulatory update or other purposes, and possibly more often according to the needs of and at the discretion of the Registry sponsor(s) and the Mycophenolate Pregnancy. Based on the prospective case data, 95% confidence intervals will be constructed around the observed birth defect rate. For pregnancies with known outcome, line listings and descriptive summaries will be included.
