For researchers submitting trial data to ClinicalTrials.gov, the Adverse Events module is one of four mandatory results sections. It requires reporting in three primary categories: All-Cause Mortality: A table tracking all deaths that occurred during the study, regardless of cause. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): A tabular summary of events resulting in death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization, or significant disability. Other Adverse Events: A table for non-serious events that exceed a specific frequency threshold, such as 5% within any study arm.
Adverse Events Module path is as follows:
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Event Groups
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Serious Events
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Other Events

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cohort 1 (Pembrolizumab and cART) | Participants enrolled into Cohort 1 (50-199 CD4+ T cells/mcL), who receive pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Participants continue receiving their recommended combination antiretroviral therapy per established regimen. Cycles repeat every 21 days for up to 2 years or 35 doses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants also undergo CT or PET/CT and blood sample collection throughout the trial. Participants may also undergo biopsies during screening and on study.

Cycles repeat every 21 days for up to 2 years or 35 doses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Participants continue receiving their recommended combination antiretroviral therapy per established regimen. Cycles repeat every 21 days for up to 2 years or 35 doses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants also undergo CT or PET/CT and blood sample collection throughout the trial. Participants may also undergo biopsies during screening and on study.

| Cohort 4 (Pembrolizumab and cART) | Participants with HIV associated Kaposi sarcoma enrolled into cohort 4, who receive pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Participants continue receiving their recommended combination antiretroviral therapy per established regimen. Cycles repeat every 21 days for up to 2 years or 35 doses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants undergo physical examination and blood sample collection, and may undergo CT or PET/CT. Participants may also undergo biopsies during screening and on study. Antiretroviral Therapy: Given PO Biopsy: Undergo biopsy Biospecimen Collection: Undergo blood sample collection Computed Tomography: Undergo CT or PET/CT Pembrolizumab: Given IV Positron Emission Tomography: Undergo PET/CT | 2 | None | 9 | 24 | 24 | 24 | View |
