Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Cross-over study. Randomisation is performed by the pharmacy department of the Royal Adelaide Hospital using statistical software. Once the peptide is reconstituted the study drug or placebo is packaged and labelled study drug. The investigator will receive the study drug from the pharmacy department and have no involvement in preparation of solution or randomisation schedule.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
computer generated
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
