Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Adjusted Percent Change From Baseline in Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) at Week 12 (Modified Last Observation Carried Forward [MLOCF])From Baseline to Week 12Baseline was defined as the last assessment prior to the start date and time of the first dose of the double-blind study medication. In cases where time of the first dose or time of the assessment was not available, baseline was defined as the last assessment on or prior to the date of the first dose of the double-blind study medication. If no Week 12 measurement was available, the last available post-baseline measurement obtained on or after Day 23 was used regardless of rescue medication. Measurements were obtained during radomization visit, and Week 12 in the double-blind period by a central laboratory.

Adjusted Percent Change From Baseline in Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) at Week 12 (Modified Last Observation Carried Forward [MLOCF])

Baseline was defined as the last assessment prior to the start date and time of the first dose of the double-blind study medication. In cases where time of the first dose or time of the assessment was not available, baseline was defined as the last assessment on or prior to the date of the first dose of the double-blind study medication. If no Week 12 measurement was available, the last available post-baseline measurement obtained on or after Day 23 was used regardless of rescue medication. Measurements were obtained during radomization visit, and Week 12 in the double-blind period by a central laboratory.
