Definition of the end of the trial and justification where it is not the last
visit of the last subject undergoing the trial
|
The end of study is defined as the date when the last data required for all study analysis are collected. The total length, from screening of the first patient to the end, is expected to be approximately 40 months. In addition, the Sponsor may decide to terminate the study at any time. If the Sponsor decides to terminate the study, patients who are still receiving study treatment or undergoing survival follow-up may be enrolled in an extension study or a non-interventional study, if available. |
