Study design details

Main study objective

To estimate the proportion of major congenital malformations associated with exposure to siponimod immediately before (up to 10 days before LMP) and during pregnancy among (i) live births and (ii) live births, stillbirths, and termination of pregnancy for fetal anomaly (TOPFA).

Outcomes

Major congenital malformation, To estimate the proportion of minor malformations, pregnancy outcomes, overall malformations, physical and cognitive development and serious infections in infants up to one year of age

Data analysis plan

A statistical analysis plan (SAP) detailing the analysis to be conducted will be developed prior to the first data lock point. Annual interim reports will be provided as described in the Milestones section below. The primary Mayzent-PRIM analysis cohort will constitute of the prospectively reported pregnancies associated with maternal exposure during pregnancy or up to 10 days before LMP. Since retrospective cases may be subject to reporting biases but still be informative, these will be analyzed and reported separately. Note that comparison with external background data will only be performed for the primary cohort, due to the high risk of bias for retrospective reports. Data analysis will include the estimation of proportion and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of malformations and specific pregnancy and infant outcomes. The proportion of congenital malformations will be calculated amongst (i) live births, and (ii) live births, stillbirths, and TOPFA.
