Limitations and Caveats
Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
After 3 yrs of enrollment, interim analysis revealed a significant number of subjects in the Conventional arm required rescue, which served as the trigger to close the study to further enrollment.
