Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Renal Function [ Time Frame: Randomization to Month 6 ]
    The primary variable will be the mean change in renal function assessed by eGFR from randomization to Month 6.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Efficacy (tBPAR, graft loss, death, loss to follow-up) [ Time Frame: To Month 6 ]
    Composite efficacy failure of tBPAR, graft loss, death or loss to follow-up and each of its components at month 6 will be analysed per event rate estimates, Kaplan-Meier and regression models. The time to the first occurrence of the event will be calculated from the randomization date.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Number of participants with adverse events [ Time Frame: at 24 months (end of study) ]
    Routine safety will be assessed via AE reporting, vital signs, and laboratory data.
