NCT ID: NCT02651584

Last Updated: 2019-08-22

Results Overview

CAM2038 q1w: BPN FluidCrystal® SC injection depot for once weekly administration (50 mg/mL) at doses of 8, 16, 24 and 32 mg (BPN base) (0.16, 0.32, 0.48 or 0.64 mL SC injection). CAM2038 q4w: BPN FluidCrystal® SC injection depot for once monthly administration (356 mg/mL) at doses of 64, 96, 128 or 160 mg (BPN base) (0.18, 0.27, 0.36 or 0.45 mL SC injection).
