Limitations and caveats
The sponsor cancelled this trial prematurely. Thus, enrollment for 1199.128 was significantly less than what was planned (800 planned vs. 12 entered). Therefore, the objectives of this study could not be fully assessed.

Individual participant data

Plan to share: No — Clinical studies sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim, phases I to IV, interventional and non-interventional, are in scope for sharing of the raw clinical study data and clinical study documents. Exceptions might apply, e.g. studies in products where Boehringer Ingelheim is not the license holder; studies regarding pharmaceutical formulations and associated analytical methods, and studies pertinent to pharmacokinetics using human biomaterials; studies conducted in a single center or targeting rare diseases (in case of low number of patients and therefore limitations with anonymization).
