See Marano et al. for a description of the study groups (9). Prior to sampling at week 30, the 3IM arms (TRT-4IM, TRT-5IM, and TRT-7IM) received 3 intramuscular (IM) doses of AVA (0.5 ml) at 0 and 4 weeks and 6 months with 0.5 ml placebo at 2 weeks; the 4IM arm (TRT-8IM) received 4 IM doses of AVA (0.5 ml) at 0, 2, and 4 weeks and 6 months; and the 4SQ (TRT-8SQ) arm received 4 doses SQ AVA 0.5 ml at 0, 2, and 4 weeks and 6 months. Q1 and Q3, the first and third quartiles, respectively. SQ, subcutaneously; TRT, treatment; SI, stimulation index; Baylor, Baylor College of Medicine; Emory, Emory University School of Medicine; Mayo, Mayo Clinic; UAB, University of Alabama at Birmingham; WRAIR, Walter Reed Army Institute of Research.
