Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
Date
Amendment
15 Mar 2016
Changes made to provide more detailed information for the investigators and ensure study success. Extended the duration of the trial, adding time points at which to collect measurements. Adjusted inclusion/exclusion criteria and recording requirements, and added a risk/benefit statement.
27 Jul 2017
Modified inclusion and exclusion criteria and extended the recording period for adverse events.

Interruptions (globally)

Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

Limitations and caveats

Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
This study did have a notable limitation in its single-group study design. This may limit a more robust assessment vs standard of care alone for primary endpoint of overall response and secondary endpoints steroid sparing and disease progression.
