Some concerns |
General comment | In addition to the published article, the study registry was used in data extraction and risk of bias assessment. Protocol, statistical analysis plan, or supplementary appendix (mentioned in the report) were not available at the time of data extraction. The published article reports on interim analyses of a phase 1 (single arm, not extracted) and phase 2 (RCT, extracted) study. The target sample size specified in the registry was achieved. The primary outcome in the report reflects the one in the registry. An overall adverse event outcome in the registry not clearly reported. Some biochemical and hematological outcomes are reported that were not in the registry. There is no change from the trial registration in the population, intervention, or control. |
