E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective is to compare the pharmacodynamic activity of PTK787/ ZK 222584 by dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at trough levels in once daily (o.d.) versus twice daily (b.i.d.) treatment arms.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives are to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and biomarker activity of o.d. versus b.i.d. administration of PTK787/ ZK 222584 monotherapy.
