Definition of the end of the trial and justification where it is not the last
visit of the last subject undergoing the trial
|
The overall end of the study is defined as the last protocol-specified contact with the last patient ongoing in the study. The last protocol-specified contact is a safety follow-up. This may be a telephone contact, unless an SAE has occurred since the previous visit. The safety follow-up must be conducted 4 weeks after the last dose of IMP. |
La fine della sperimentazione è definita dall’ultimo contatto specificato da protocollo con l’ultimo paziente in studio. L’ultimo contatto specificato da protocollo è il follow-up di sicurezza. Questo si può svolgere telefonicamente, salvo qualora sia comparso un SAE dalla precedente visita. Il follow-up di sicurezza deve essere eseguito 4 settimane dopo l’ultima dose di IMP. |
