Participant Flow

The study was conducted from 20 November 2009 to 14 March 2013. Participants were recruited at 1 study center in the United States.

66 participants were randomly allocated to the 2 treatment arms and were included in the intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis set. 65 participants received at least 1 dose of the study drug and were included in the safety analysis set.
