days between each period.
During the wash out period, patients will continue to receive locally marketed
hydroxyurea.
Note:
ï‚· For period II, a window period of +7 days may be allowed for any social reason
or any other unavoidable circumstances etc. and +14 days may be allowed for AE
management.
ï‚· Dosing activity will be done under sodium vapor lamp in both periods.
