What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Urinary Albumin/Creatinine Ratio (UACR) at Week 24	UACR is a potential marker of chronic kidney disease, calculated as a ratio of Urinary Albumin and Urinary Creatinine. The least squares mean (LS mean) are from mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) analyses which include treatment, baseline estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) group (higher: 50 to 70 mL/min/1.73m² and lower: 25 to <50 mL/min/1.73m²), visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, baseline UACR, and baseline UACR-by-visit interaction.	Baseline, Week 24

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Urinary Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 1 (MCP-1)/Creatinine Ratio		Baseline, Week 24
Change From Baseline in Creatinine Clearance at Week 24	Creatinine clearance is the amount of creatinine cleared from kidney within 24 hours. The LS mean was from MMRM analyses which included treatment, baseline eGRF group, visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, baseline Creatinine Clearance, and baseline Creatinine Clearance-by-visit interaction.	Baseline, Week 24
Change From Baseline in European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) at Week 24	EQ-5D-5L is a 2-part measurement. The first part is comprised of the following 5 participant-reported dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. The responses are used to derive the health state index scores using the United Kingdom (UK) algorithm, with scores ranging from -0.594 to 1, and the United States (US) algorithm, with scores ranging from -0.109 to 1. A higher score indicates better health state. The second part is assessed using a visual analog scale (VAS) that ranged from 0 to 100mm, where 0 is the worst health you can imagine and 100 is the best health you can imagine. The LS means are analyzed using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment, baseline eGFR group, and baseline VAS score or baseline health state index score as covariates.	Baseline, Week 24
Pharmacokinetics (PK): Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve at Steady State (AUC,ss)	Evaluable pharmacokinetic concentrations from the 2-week, 4-week, 8-week, 12-week, 16-week, 20-week and 24-week time points were combined and utilized in a population approach to determine the population mean estimate and standard deviation at steady-state.	Weeks 2 and 4 (1-2 hours postdose), 8 (3-6 hours postdose), 12 (in fasted state), 16 and 20 (6-9 hours postdose), 24 (in fasted state)
