Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Vials containing the drug are numbered with a patient ID number to conceal treatment allocation. Formulations are provided in ready-to-administer syringes so medical and nursing staff remind blind.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Random allocation was carried out manually. Treatment assignment ensures that within each dose group only one subject receives placebo and four subjects receive active treatment.
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
