Some concerns |
General comment |
In addition to the published article, the prospective registry, protocol and statistical analysis plan were used in data extraction and assessment of risk of bias. The primary and secondary outcomes in the article reflect those in the registry. Safety outcomes were not included in the registry, but were included in the protocol. Trial inclusion criteria relating to risk factors for severe disease changed slightly over the course of the study, informed by evolving understanding of the disease. Recruitment to the trial was stopped after the second planned interim analysis, which indicated the pre-specified threshold for futility had been reached, and so the study did not achieve its target sample size.
This study was updated on September 8th, 2022 with data extracted from the registry. |
