a

The full analysis set population included all the patients who had undergone randomisation and had completed efficacy assessment at least once after the baseline.

b

The least squares men changes from baseline between the ubiquinol and the placebo groups at week 48 were estimated using a mixed model for repeated measures. Treatment group, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction were included as fixed effects and with adjustment for the baseline value of each endpoint, presence of the V393A variants in COQ2, and disease subtype (MSA-C or MSA-P). There was no imputation of missing data for the primary efficacy outcome or secondary efficacy outcome. The results for secondary efficacy outcomes were not corrected for multiple comparison.

c

Parameters were converged by the covariance structure AR (1) with random effects.

d

Parameters were converged by the covariance structure UN with no random effects.
