Haematologica. 2017; 102:xxx doi: /haematol Publisher's Disclaimer. E-publishing ahead of print is increasingly important for the rapid dissemination of science. Haematologica is, therefore, E-publishing PDF files of an early version of manuscripts that have completed a regular peer review and have been accepted for publication. E-publishing of this PDF file has been approved by the authors. After having E-published Ahead of Print, manuscripts will then undergo technical and English editing, typesetting, proof correction and be presented for the authors' final approval; the final version of the manuscript will then appear in print on a regular issue of the journal.

39 **The event rate is calculated as the number of patients with events/100 patient-years exposure. Patients who received anagrelide + other are included in both the anagrelide and other treatment groups for analysis of SSARs. Events are excluded if the start date was on or after the date of first treatment change (or date of first treatment change plus 28 days if followed by a no-treatment period). Since subjects were allowed to switch treatments during the study, they could be counted in more than one treatment group in the overall-treatment analysis. 5

The variable anti-aggregatory therapy at registration was used for the multivariate analysis in the first-treatment population. 6

41 Supplementary Figure 1. EXELS study design. *Includes all patients who received at least one dose of CRT. Seventy-two patients were excluded from the safety population as they did not receive CRT post-registration. **Other CRT group includes patients who received: hydroxycarbamide, busulphan, interferon-α, pegylated interferon, pipobroman, sodium phosphate P32, thromboreductin (anagrelide). ***Includes patients who did not receive CRT within 10 days of study registration, but subsequently initiated CRT, or patients for whom no CRT information was available. 7
