Informed consent must be provided by the subject’s legally acceptable representative when the subject is legally too young; the subject must provide written assent based on local regulations and/or guidelines prior to any study-specific activities. Age-specific assent and consent documents are prepared (multiple adolescent/child/parent assent and ICF documents listed in trial documents).
