ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPart A: Change From Baseline in Proteinuria at Week 48Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48
Change from baseline in proteinuria was assessed based on urinary protein-to-creatinine ratio (uPCR). Baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug.
PrimaryPart B: Change From Baseline in Proteinuria at Week 168Baseline (Part A, Week 48) and Week 168Change from baseline in proteinuria was assessed based on uPCR. Baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug during Part B.
SecondaryParts A and B: Change From Baseline in Serum Complement 3 (C3) Levels at Week 48 of Part A and Week 168 of Part BPart A: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48; Part B: Baseline (Part A, Week 48) and Week 168
Blood samples were collected to measure serum C3 levels. Part A baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug. Part B baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug during Part B.
SecondaryParts A and B: Change From Baseline in Alternative Pathway Hemolytic Assay (AH50) Activity at Week 48 of Part A and Week 168 of Part BPart A: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48; Part B: Baseline (Part A, Week 48) and Week 168
Blood samples were collected to measure AH50 activity. Part A baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug. Part B baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug during Part B.
SecondaryParts A and B: Change From Baseline in C3a Concentrations at Week 48 of Part A and Week 168 of Part BPart A: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48; Part B: Baseline (Part A, Week 48) and Week 168
Blood samples were collected to measure C3a concentrations. Part A baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug. Part B baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug during Part B.
SecondaryParts A and B: Change From Baseline in Serum Albumin Levels at Week 48 of Part A and Week 168 of Part BPart A: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48; Part B: Baseline (Part A, Week 48) and Week 168
Blood samples were collected to measure serum albumin levels. Part A baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug. Part B baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug during Part B.
SecondaryParts A and B: Number of Subjects With Complete Clinical Remission at Week 48 of Part A and Week 168 of Part BPart A: Week 48; Part B: Week 168The complete clinical remission was defined as normalization of proteinuria as defined by \<200 mg/g uPCR.
SecondaryParts A and B: Number of Subjects With Stabilization or Improvement in Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) From Baseline at Week 48 of Part A and Week 168 of Part BPart A: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48; Part B: Baseline (Part A, Week 48) and Week 168
The eGFR stabilization or improvement was defined as an eGFR value that was no more than a 25% decrease relative to baseline. Part A baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug. Part B baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to or on the first administration of study drug during Part B.
