Change in Kidney Disease Quality of Life (KDQOL-36) score across treatment arms. KDQOL-36 is scored on a 0-100 scale across five domains, with higher scores indicating better health-related quality of life.

Change in health-related quality of life measured using the European Quality of Life 5-Dimension, 5-Level questionnaire across treatment arms. A score of 11111 = no problems in any dimension (best), and a score of 55555 = extreme problems in all dimensions (worst).

Change in functional status measured with KDQOL-36™ scores across treatment arms. KDQOL-36 is scored on a 0-100 scale across five domains, with higher scores indicating better health-related quality of life.

Measured via EQ-5D-5L (European Quality of Life five-dimensional, five-level generic measure) scores across treatment arms. A score of 11111 = no problems in any dimension (best), and a score of 55555 = extreme problems in all dimensions (worst).
