Pre-assignment details

This treatment regimen was already assessed in a previous study. The phase 1 portion was a safety lead-in of a slight modification of the previously established combination dosing. As a consequence, we only did a safety lead in of one dose level that was determined to be the phase 2 dose and we rolled all the phase 1 patients into the phase 2 cohort.
