What does the primary outcome measure?

Establish bioequivalence of generic GPO ritonavir, with Norvir® as the reference drug. (time frame: 2 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
