Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change From Baseline for Average Pain Intensity as Measured by the NRS
Baseline, up to Week 8

The NRS was used during the preliminary data entry period and daily throughout the study to describe pain severity. Participants were asked to describe their average pain over the past 24 hours, on a scale of 0 to 10: 0 = no pain, and 10 = pain as bad as you can imagine. Posterior mean change from baseline, 95% credible interval (CrI) was derived using Bayesian mixed model repeated measures. The Bayesian analyses include posterior probabilities instead of p-values, and 95% credible intervals instead of 95% confidence intervals

Change From Baseline in Average Pain Intensity as Measured by the NRS
Baseline, up to Week 8

The NRS was used during the preliminary data entry period and daily throughout the study to describe pain severity. Participants were asked to describe their average pain over the past 24 hours, on a scale of 0 to 10: 0 = no pain, and 10 = pain as bad as you can imagine. Posterior mean change from baseline, 95% credible interval (CrI) was derived using Bayesian mixed model repeated measures.

Change From Baseline in Average Pain Intensity as Measured by the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)
Baseline, up to Week 8

The NRS was used during the preliminary data entry period and daily throughout the study to describe pain severity. Participants were asked to describe their average pain over the past 24 hours, on a scale of 0 to 10: 0 = no pain, and 10 = pain as bad as you can imagine. Posterior mean change from baseline, 95% credible interval (CrI) was derived using Bayesian mixed model repeated measures. The Bayesian analyses include posterior probabilities instead of p-values, and 95% credible intervals instead of 95% confidence intervals.

Part B:Change From Baseline in Proteinuria
Baseline, 16 Weeks

Proteinuria is defined as the ratio of protein to creatinine.

Part A and Part B: Number of Participants With One or More Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) or Any Serious AEs
Baseline up to 32 Weeks

Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are events which were not present at baseline or pre-existing conditions at baseline that worsened in severity following the start of treatment. A summary of other non-serious Adverse Events (AEs), and all Serious Adverse Events (SAE's), regardless of causality, is located in the Reported Adverse Events section.

Number of Participants With One or More Drug-Related Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) or Any Serious AEs (SAE)
From baseline up to 8 weeks post dose

Drug-related TEAEs are any untoward medical occurrence that either occurs or worsens at any time after treatment baseline, and in the opinion of the investigators is possibly related to study drug. A summary of SAEs and other nonserious AEs, regardless of whether or not they were possibly related to study drug, is located in the Reported Adverse Event section.

Secondary Endpoints
