Masking Details
The Sarecycline drug used in the study is indistinguishable from the Sarecycline placebo (the shape, color, and appearance are identical). In addition, to ensure the blind method, the drug packaging and batch numbers of the two groups are identical, and the packaging batch numbers are uniformly marked. During the implementation of the study, except for the authorized personnel of the company's supply chain, research management department, and subject security department, members of each research execution group, research center personnel, and CRO data processing personnel cannot view the randomization scheme. The blind method was also used to evaluate the outcome. The subjects were randomly divided into groups and blinded to the members of the adjudication committee.
