(no detailed dose/schedule specified in the provided record.) Phase III trial in France.

Opposition by the patient or (in case of emergency inclusion) by the trustworthy person is an exclusion criterion. No paediatric assent procedures are described (study includes adults ≥18)..

Pregnancy Exclusion
Woman of childbearing age without a pregnancy test or with a positive serum pregnancy test
