Limitations and caveats
Recruitment was launched in Dec. 2019 and was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic with most participants enrolling in 2022.~One participant was unable to attend the week 10 visit because of COVID-19 infection, and the week 8 biomarker results were used to determine the primary outcome.

Registered outcomes6

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in Urine MCP1/Cr Levels10 Weeks
MCP1 is an established marker of intra-renal TNF pathway activation. A reduction in MCP1 reflects a reduction in the activation of the TNF pathway in the kidney. Values were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) testing and standardized over serum creatinine.
PrimaryChange in Urine TIMP1/Cr Levels10 Weeks
TIMP1 is an established marker of intra-renal TNF pathway activation. A reduction in TIMP1 reflects a reduction in the activation of the TNF pathway in the kidney. Values were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) testing and standardized over serum creatinine.
SecondaryIncidence of Adverse Events (AEs)14 weeks
AEs for this outcome measure were classified using the following definitions: * Mild: no or mild symptoms, and not requiring intervention * Moderate: with minimal or local intervention, and limiting age-appropriate activities * Severe: intervention necessary and limiting age-appropriate activities but not immediately life-threatening, and requiring hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization * Serious AE: results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, pregnancy or congenital anomaly/birth defect. Some participants experienced multiple types of AE during the course of the trial.
SecondaryChange in Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)10 Weeks
eGFR is a measure of kidney functioning based on a blood sample and clinical information to calculate it. Normal kidney function is greater than 90 ml/min/1.73 m2. Result data is the percent change in eGFR following the intervention. The lower the number shows the greater decline in kidney function.
SecondaryChange in Urine Protein Creatinine Ratio (UPCR)10 Weeks
UPCR is a measure of protein spillage from the kidney based on a urine specimen. Normal reference range is less than 0.03 mg/mg. Result is the percent change in UPCR following the intervention, with lower number showing less protein spilling from the kidney, reflecting better disease control.
SecondaryProportion of Participants Who Achieved Both a Nadir Urine Protein Creatinine Ratio (UPCR) of Less Than 1.5 g/g and at Least a 40% Reduction From Baseline10 Weeks
UPCR is a measure of protein spillage from the kidney based on a urine specimen. Normal reference range is less than 0.03 mg/mg. Result is the count of participants who simultaneously met the criteria of having both a raw UPCR value of less than 1.5 g/g and at least a 40% reduction from baseline.
