EAGLE Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Bardoxolone methylExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Adult participants received bardoxolone methyl capsules, once daily (QD) at a starting dose of 5 milligrams (mg), followed by dose- escalation to 10 mg at Week 2 (Day 14 ± 3), and to 20 mg at Week 4 (Day 28 ± 3). Based on the eligibility UACR >300 milligrams per gram (mg/g), the dose was increased to 30 mg starting from Week 6 (Day 42 ± 3) until the end of the study. Participants under 18 years of age received bardoxolone methyl capsules at a starting dose of 5 mg every other day during the first week and QD during the second week of the study, followed by dose-escalation to 10 mg at Week 2 and to 20 mg at Week 4. Based on the eligibility UACR >300 mg/g, the dose was increased to 30 mg starting from Week 6 until the end of the study.
