Registered outcomes16

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Treatment Failure5 yearsTreatment failure was defined as death, transplantation, meeting minimal listing criteria, development of varices, cholangiocarcinoma, or progression to cirrhosis
SecondaryNumber of Deaths5 yearsDeath at any time up to 5 years
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Have a Liver Transplantation5 yearsLiver transplantation at any time up to 5 years
SecondaryNumber of Participants Meeting Minimal Listing Criteria for Liver Transplantation5 years
Meeting minimal listing criteria for liver transplantation at any time up to 5 years. Minimal listing criteria are defined as a MELD score of 14 or higher. The Model For End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) is a numeric score with a range of 6 to 40, where a higher score means worse liver disease.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Developed Cholangiocarcinoma5 yearsDevelopment of cholangiocarcinoma at any time up to 5 years
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Developed Varices5 yearsDevelopment of esophogeal and/or gastric varices
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Developed Cirrhosis5 yearsDevelopment of cirrhosis based on liver biopsy
SecondaryAlkaline Phosphatase at 12 Months12 monthsAlkaline phosphatase divided by the upper limit of normal
SecondaryAlkaline Phosphatase at 24 Months24 monthsAlkaline phosphatase divided by the upper limit of normal
SecondaryAlkaline Phosphatase at 36 Months36 monthsAlkaline phosphatase divided by the upper limit of normal
