Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Percentage of Participants Who Survived With a Graft at 12 Months Post-Transplant
Participant and graft survival at 12 months was summarized within each treatment group. Graft loss was defined as either functional loss or physical loss (nephrectomy). Functional loss was defined as a sustained level of serum creatinine ≥ 6.0 mg/dL (530 μmol/L) as determined by central laboratory for ≥4 weeks or 56 or more consecutive days of dialysis.
Month 12 post-transplant
Percentage of Participants With a Measured Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) <60 mL/Min Per 1.73 m^2 at Month 12 or a Decrease in Measured GFR >=10 mL/Min Per 1.73 m^2 From Month 3 to Month 12
GFR was assessed using a true measure of glomerular filtration via non-radiolabeled iothalamate clearance test using a validated procedure.
From Month 3 to Month 12
Secondary Outcomes (21)
Measured Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) by Month 12 and 24
At Month 12 and Month 24
Percentage of Participants With Chronic Allograft Nephropathy (CAN) at Month 12
At Month 12
Percentage of Participants Who Survived With a Graft at 24 and 36 Months Post-Transplant
Month 24 and Month 36 post-transplant
Calculated Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) at 6, 12, 24, 36 and 84 Months
Months 6, 12, 24, 36 and 84
Change in Calculated GFR at Months 12, 24, 36 and 84
