Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Outcome assessment at the end of the study The primary end point is measurement of kidney function by the estimated glomerular filtration rate and extent of proteinuria as 24h urinary excretion and fractional protein excretion. The results will be compared with the change of eGFR during the preceeding six months, and the mean of two protein excretion measurements at study entry. Progresssion of disease is defined as a significant more rapid decline of eGFR compared to pretreatment values, or a significant higher protein excretion. Improvement of both markers is defined as improvement of the disease, and no change as disease beeing stable. ;Secondary Objective: ;Primary end point(s): The primary end point is measurement of kidney function by the estimated glomerular filtration rate and extent of proteinuria as 24h urinary excretion and fractional protein excretion.
