  1. Effect estimates for the placebo group are total to the given time point while effect estimates for the intervention groups (0.1% loading dose and 0.01%) are differences from the placebo group at the given time point. The baseline effect estimates are means across all groups at baseline. Abbreviations: AL, axial length; BCVA, best-corrected visual acuity; mo, months; p, p-value; adjusted-p, p-value adjusted by False Discovery Rate; SER, Spherical equivalent refraction
  2. a Change in the 0.1% loading dose group compared to placebo at the given time point
  3. b Change in the 0.01% group compared to placebo at the given time point
  4. * Statistically significant below our adjusted-p cut-off of 0.05
