Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants Who Experienced a Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)Day 1 to Week 24

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. TEAEs are defined as AEs with a start date and time on or after the first dose of study treatment through the end of study.

Clinically significant changes in vital signs, physical exams, laboratory assessments and electrocardiograms were also reported as TEAEs.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in BK Viral LoadBaseline and Week 24

BK viral load was quantitated using polymerase chain reaction assays at the central laboratory. A negative change from baseline represents a reduction in BK viral load.
