Recruitment details
Study conducted between 04 September 2014 and 28 December 2017. 118 centers in 6 countries randomized patients in the study. A Primary Analysis was performed following completion of the 28-week Treatment Period with a data cut-off date of 26 April 2016. All Primary and Secondary Outcome measures were reported at the time of the Primary Analysis.
Pre-assignment details
The study had a Screening Visit, a 1-week placebo Lead-in Period, a Randomization Visit, and 9 further visits at 1- to 4-week intervals during a 28-week Treatment Period. Patients then entered a 24-week Extension Period 1 and subsequent 52-week Extension Period 2. A follow-up visit occurred 10 weeks after last dose of study medication.
