Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Change from baseline in log transformed Urine Albumin Creatinine Ratio (UACR) measured in 10-hour urine after 20 weeks of trial treatment
Secondary outcome measures
Change from baseline in log transformed Urine Albumin Creatinine Ratio (UACR) measured in First Morning Void urine after 20 weeks of trial treatment
Number of patients achieving UACR decreases in 10-hour urine of at least 20% from baseline after 20 weeks of trial treatment
Number of patients achieving UACR decreases in First Morning Void urine of at least 20% from baseline after 20 weeks of trial treatment

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Dose group 3: BI 685509Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Low dose followed by up-titration to medium dose, followed by up-titration to high-dose.
Group II: Dose group 2: BI 685509Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Low dose followed by up-titration to medium dose.
Group III: Dose group 1: BI 685509Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Low dose
Group IV: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
This arm comprises all placebo treated participants. Participants were randomized in the dose group in a 3:1 ratio (test treatment to placebo). Participants were administered film-coated tablets of matching placebo 3 times a day during 20 weeks of treatment. The tablets were taken with water, with or without food. Patients continued the treatment until undue drug toxicity, disease progression, or withdrawal of consent, whichever occurred first.
