Mer - this stage of the trial follows approval received from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency ("MHRA") to escalate VAL201 dosing (announced by the Company on18 December 2017). In the intervening period, the Company has geared up the compound supply chain to meet increased demand for the drug, as a result of the higher dosage TO BE administered. UCLH has spent the period both screening and recruiting patients who are eligible to enter this stage of the study.....they have started administering the drug which signifies the concluding period... between Decembers RNS and now they've recruited and screened patients suitable. The increased dosage is the start of the concluding period mate.
