Definition of the end of the trial and justification where it is not the last
visit of the last subject undergoing the trial
|
The trial may be considered as completed when 48 subjects have been randomized and passed at least V2 assessments. In total, 6 post-baseline visits are scheduled but subjects may terminate participation before completing the full 12-week post-baseline follow up, as per their perception of the treatment effect on OAB symptoms.
Otherwise the trial may be stopped prematurely for safety reasons at any time. IMP-treated subjects will be followed up and receive standard medical care for the OAB. |
