Registered outcomes6
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Urinary Kidney Injury Biomarker Kidney Injury Molecule-1 (KIM-1) Above Baseline Within 24 Hours Postoperatively | from baseline (time 0) to 24 hours postoperatively | The area under the curve (AUC) is a summary measure of the concentration of the biomarker over time and is expressed as (ng\*h/mL). |
| Secondary | Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Urinary Kidney Injury Biomarker Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated Lipocalin (NGAL) Above Baseline Within 24 Hours Postoperatively | from baseline (time 0) to 24 hours postoperatively | The area under the curve (AUC) is a summary measure of the concentration of the biomarker over time and is expressed as (ng\*h/mL). |
| Secondary | Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Urinary Kidney Injury Biomarker Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases 2 (TIMP-2) Above Baseline Within 24 Hours Postoperatively | from baseline (time 0) to 24 hours postoperatively | The area under the curve (AUC) is a summary measure of the concentration of the biomarker over time and is expressed as (ng\*h/mL). |
| Secondary | Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Urinary Kidney Injury Biomarker Insulin-like Growth Factor-binding Protein 7 (IGFBP-7) Above Baseline Within 24 Hours Postoperatively | from baseline (time 0) to 24 hours postoperatively | The area under the curve (AUC) is a summary measure of the concentration of the biomarker over time and is expressed as (ng\*h/mL). |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Any-stage Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) | from baseline to postoperative day 7 (or hospital discharge if earlier) | Acute kidney injury (AKI) will be defined using the 2012 Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria: serum creatinine (SCr) increase greater than 50% from baseline or ≥ 0.3 mg/dL increase within 48 hours after surgery. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Major Adverse Kidney Events (MAKE) | from baseline to 30 days after surgery | MAKE is defined as the composite of death, dialysis, renal hospitalization or sustained kidney dysfunction defined as glomerular filtration rate (GFR) decline of 25% or more from preoperative baseline. |

Outcomes6
Each outcome the trial posted results for, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| Type | Outcome | Time frame | Population | Units | Measured as |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PRIMARY | Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Urinary Kidney Injury Biomarker Kidney Injury Molecule-1 (KIM-1) Above Baseline Within 24 Hours Postoperatively | from baseline (time 0) to 24 hours postoperatively | All 100 participants completed the study; however, upon further verification before analysis, 2 participants who completed (1 per arm) were deemed to not meet the inclusion criteria; therefore, these 2 participants (1 per arm) were excluded from the analysis. An intent-to-treat analysis is reported. | ng*h/mL | MEDIAN |
| SECONDARY | Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Urinary Kidney Injury Biomarker Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated Lipocalin (NGAL) Above Baseline Within 24 Hours Postoperatively | from baseline (time 0) to 24 hours postoperatively | All 100 participants completed the study; however, upon further verification before analysis, 2 participants who completed (1 per arm) were deemed to not meet the inclusion criteria; therefore, these 2 participants (1 per arm) were excluded from the analysis. An intent-to-treat analysis is reported. | ng*h/mL | MEDIAN |
| SECONDARY | Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Urinary Kidney Injury Biomarker Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases 2 (TIMP-2) Above Baseline Within 24 Hours Postoperatively | from baseline (time 0) to 24 hours postoperatively | Data for the biomarker TIMP-2 were not collected. This is because in a prior non-interventional validation study, IGFBP-7 could not be validated with ELISA, and because a combination of TIMP-2 and IGFBP-7 are used to predict AKI risk, it was determined that TIMP-2 (which depends on IGFBP-7) will not be used used to predict AKI risk in this trial. The Study Protocol was not amended to reflect this collective team decision. Data collection and analysis will not be conducted in the future. | ng*h/mL | MEDIAN |
