Access to Anonymized individual participant data that support these results is made available 12 months after study completion and not less than 12 months after the product and indication have been approved in the US and/or the EU. Access to data may be declined where there is likelihood a patient could be identified or other feasibility issue, where there is a potential conflict of interest, a planned business activities or an actual or potential competitive risk. Data will be provided contingent upon the approval of a research proposal and the execution of a data sharing agreement. Timeframes for data access may vary and can take up to 6 months or more.
