News on recruitment

ICON7 is now open to recruitment in Australia, Norway and Sweden.

ICON7 closed to recruitment on  Monday 16th February, 2009,  with a total of 1528 patients, 8 more than our target.

The last day on which patients may be randomised to ICON7 is Monday 16th February, 2009.  We recommend that informed consent for all patients currently in pre-screening is obtained 2 weeks prior to 16th February  to allow sufficient time for screening procedures to be carried out.

We now have over 1440 patients randomised to the trial, with September 2008 being our best month for recruitment so far, with 96 patients randomised.

We are pleased to announce that New Zealand open their first site on 07/04/2008, and had their first patient randomised on 16/04/08.
