The trial’s own eligibility text, word for word from the registry. Only the trial site can say who takes part.
Inclusion
- +Have completed the main treatment period/phase as well as any off-treatment period/phase of Study OWAA, the parent study for this ISA.
Exclusion
- −Allergy to local anesthetics, such as lidocaine or its derivatives.
- −The participant has conditions that preclude a lumbar puncture (LP), such as:
- −A local infection at the intended siteTrial siteA hospital or clinic where a study is actually run.Read more → of the LP.
- −Less than 100 giga per liter \[(\<100 GI/L) is equivalent to 100,000 per cubic millimeter (100,000/mm³)\] platelets or clinically significant coagulation abnormality or significant active bleeding, or
- −Currently receiving treatment with an anticoagulant, antiplatelet agent, or other drug that affects coagulation or platelet function. Low dose (according to local medical guidelines) aspirin is permitted.
- −A history of clinically significant back pain, back pathology, and/or back injury (for example, degenerative disease, spinal deformity, or spinal surgery) that may predispose to complications or technical difficulty with LP.
