Time to one-year transplant-free survival was calculated as earlier of \[(date of liver transplantation or date of death) - randomization date + 1\] for participants who died or had liver transplant within the analysis period of 361 days. Participants who neither died nor had liver transplant within analysis period had their time to event censored at earlier of date of last contact or cut-off date. Participants who terminated early for reasons other than death were followed up at months 3, 6, and 12 to collect information on liver transplantation and death, these events if reported by cut-off Day 361, were considered for the endpoint. The percentage of participants with events are presented. The percentage of participants was calculated as \[(participants with an event up to the analysis cut-off Day 361) / (number of participants in the ITT group)\].

ADAS-Cog total score as a change from baseline to 14 months The ADAS-Cog Scale is a questionnaire that assesses cognitive performance in 12 different domains. The domains are: word recall, commands, constructional praxis, delayed word-recall task, naming objects/figures, ideational praxis, orientation, word recognition, remembering test instructions, comprehension, word finding difficulty, and spoken language ability. The total score ranges from 0-80 where a higher score indicates more cognitive impairment.

ADCS-ADL total score as a change from baseline to 14 months The ADCS-ADL comprises 23 questions covering a wide array of activities of daily living. Many of the activities begin with an assessment of whether that activity is relevant and then, if yes, follow with an assessment of the difficulty. The total score over all activities ranges from 0-78 where a higher score indicates more autonomy (better outcome).

The ALSFRS-R includes 12 questions to assess the self-sufficiency of participants in 3 sub-domains: bulbar function (questions 1-3), fine and gross motor function (questions 4-9), and respiratory function (question 10-12). Aspects of nourishment, personal care, personal autonomy, and communication were also evaluated. Each task was graded on a five-point scale from 0 (incapable) to 4 (normal ability), with total score range from 0 (worst) to 48 (best). A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement.

The FVC measured the volume of air that can forcibly be exhaled through a spirometer after a full inspiration. It was expressed in a percentage of actual FVC over the expected FVC result in the general population, calculated as: Percent predicted FVC (in %) = \[(observed FVC in liters)/(predicted FVC in liters)\]\*100.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R) includes 12 questions classified into 3 subdomains: bulbar function (3 questions), fine and gross motor skills (6 questions), and respiratory function (3 questions) to assess the level self sufficiency. Each task was graded according to a 5-point scale from 0 (incapable) to 4 (normal ability) with a total score from 0 (worst) to 48 (best).

Change in levels of Aβ1-42 in CSF in the period between baseline lumbar puncture (before the start of treatment) and lumbar puncture immediately after the end of the last plasma exchange (whenever this may be). Separate assays of Aβ1-42 were performed with Innotest and The Genetics Company commercial kits.
