Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
NOE-105, formulated in oral hard gelatine capsules, administered daily, dose-ranging from 2.5mg to 15mg, during 12 weeks. The starting dose of NOE-105 is 2.5mg QD. Based on a clinical assessment and absence of tolerability issues, the investigator may increase the dose weekly by increments of 2.5mg up to a maximum of 15mg QD.
