If you agree to be in the study, you will be asked to participate in the following:
During the study you will have at least 5 visits, and possibly up to 13 visits, to the hospital/clinic.

During that time, it will be necessary for you to come to the clinic for visits. In total you will be asked to come at least 5 times, and possibly up to 13 times, to the clinic for your clinical evaluation.
