†Significant difference among doublet, triplet and quadruplet on-time doses, p<0.001.

‡Early interval of dose 3 from dose 1 occurred significantly more often than other early dosing intervals, p<0.002.

Six of the seven extra doses were prior to the appropriately timed triplet, and one of the seven was after the appropriately timed triplet.
