SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 12 months

Population: Patients from FAS with values for viral load at baseline and after 12 months.

The change in the log10 viral load from baseline after 12 months was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the value after 12 months. Therefore, a negative change represents a decrease in viral load.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 36 months

Population: Patients from TS with evaluable data for ALT at baseline and at month 36.

The changes in the laboratory data (Alanine transaminase (ALT)) from baseline after 36 months were calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the value after 36 months. Therefore, a positive change represents an increase, a negative change represents a decrease in the data.
