Table 4.

Association of baseline serum albumin (per 0.1 g/L higher) with 54-week eGFR change

n eGFR Change (95% CI) P
All completers 52 0.9 (0.5, 1.4) <0.001
Placebo arm 21 0.4 (−0.2, 1.1) 0.21
Pirfenidone at 1200 mg/d 17 1.1 (0.0, 2.2) 0.06
Pirfenidone at 2400 mg/d 14 0.9 (0.1, 1.7) 0.03

Shown is the association of baseline serum albumin with change in eGFR over the 54-week period using linear regression. Positive values indicate that a higher serum albumin level was associated with improvement in eGFR during the course of the study.
