Overview
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of progesterone given by mouth for minimizing drug EKG response to a drug.
Description
Our objective is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of novel therapeutic approaches to reduce the risk of drug-induced QTc interval prolongation and TdP.
