Blinding Strategy

TRIPLE

Participants Caregivers Investigators
Study subjects will be randomized to receive MYDAYIS® or placebo on a 1:1 ratio according to computer-generated coding. Each site will have its own randomization list. Allocation concealment will be achieved by having the research pharmacy perform the randomization, package the study medication, and maintain the integrity of the blinded information throughout the study.
