Brief summary

Adherence will be assessed at the coordinating center one year after admission. A combined evaluation of adherence will be conducted using four methods: Morisky Green, Haynes-Sackett, attendance at follow-up visits, and pharmacy medication pick-up.

The assessment of therapeutic adherence will be performed by a nursing team blinded to the patient’s assigned treatment group, to minimize bias
