That holds for the injectable. The oral formulation has different absorption behaviour and the dose numbers are not interchangeable, which is worth saying out loud because people quote them as if they were.
If somebody has the primary source to hand I would rather cite it than paraphrase it.

This answered a question I did not know how to ask. Taking it to my next appointment.

Pushing back on PedsEndoPhilly here. The trial means are being read too generously in this thread. STEP populations were selected, supported, and titrated by protocol, and the real-world curves are consistently a few points worse. That difference is not noise, it is what happens when you remove the study infrastructure.
