Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Percent Change From Baseline in the Urine Protein/Creatinine (UP/C) at Week 36
Baseline (Day 1) and at Week 36

24-hour urine sample was collected for analysis of UP/C via a mixed-model repeated-measures (MMRM) analysis. Missing responses were imputed prior to analysis using multiple imputation. Change from Baseline during the double-blind period in UP/C on the log scale was the dependent variable. Log Baseline UP/C was included as a covariate along with fixed effects for randomized treatment, time (ie, nominal visit in weeks), randomized treatment-by-time interaction, and randomization strata with participants as random effect. Estimates in log scale were back transformed. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing observation on or prior to the start of the dosing. Using Rubin's approach, estimated treatment effects are combined across all imputations to obtain overall estimates.

Slope of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)
From Day 1 to Week 108

The total eGFR slope over 2 years, defined as the slope of eGFR following initiation of randomized treatment (ie, Day 1 to Week 108). Estimates are calculated from a mixed-effects model with treatment, Baseline eGFR, analysis visit, treatment-by-analysis visit, randomization stratification factors as fixed effects, and intercept and slope for each participant as a random effect.

Percentage of Participants Achieving FSGS Partial Remission Endpoint (FPRE)
Week 36

Percentage of participants achieving FPRE, defined as urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UP/C) ≤1.5 grams/gram (g/g) (170 milligrams per millimoles \[mg/mmol\]) and a \>40% reduction from Baseline was analyzed using a generalized linear model to model probability of achieving FPRE. Missing responses were imputed prior to analysis using multiple imputation. A generalized linear model with appropriate link function was implemented with Baseline log (UP/C), treatment, analysis visit, treatment by analysis visit interaction, and randomization strata as fixed effects. For estimates of probability of achieving FPRE, risk difference, and odds ratio, binomial distribution with logit link was used. For relative risk, Poisson distribution with log link was used. Using Rubin's approach, estimated treatment effects are combined across all imputations to obtain overall estimates for probabilities.
