Clinical trial NCT03941483
Conditions: Acute Kidney Injury (AKI)
Sponsor: Astellas Pharma Inc
Start date: 2019-11-01; Completion date: 2021-10-20
Enrollment: 351 participants; Allocation: RANDOMIZED; Intervention model: PARALLEL

Brief summary:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of postsurgery treatment with ASP1128 in subjects at risk for AKI following CABG and/or valve surgery.

This study also investigated the safety and tolerability of postsurgery treatment with ASP1128, and pharmacokinetic characteristics of ASP1128 in subjects at risk for AKI following CABG and/or valve surgery.

Detailed description:
The study comprised of a screening visit, followed by CABG and/or valve surgery on Day 1, double-blind treatment period and a follow-up period up to Day 90 in subjects with moderate/severe risk of AKI at 2-22 hours post-surgery.

Subjects with low risk of AKI at 2-22 hours post-surgery assessment were enrolled in the observational cohort to evaluate subject characteristics and biomarkers for exploratory objectives.

Arms: arm 1: Participants received ASP1128 solution administered by 15 minutes intravenous infusion with in 24 hours after the end of surgery and thereafter once daily for 2 days. arm 2: Participants received placebo matched to ASP1128 solution administered by 15 minutes intravenous infusion with in 24 hours after the end of surgery and thereafter once daily for 2 days. arm 3: Participant with postoperative negative NephroCheck® (NC) (AKIRisk score was ≤ 0.3 nanogram per milliliter (ng/mL)\^2/1000 at all assessments between 2 to 22 hours after time point 0 (T0) were followed up for 90 days in observational cohort. Participants did not receive any intervention.
Interventions: intervention 1: ASP1128 intervention 2: Placebo
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: Intravenous Infusion intervention 2: Intravenous Infusion

Study Design Overview:   
The study is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study with 1 ASP1128 and 1 placebo 
treatment arm. Randomization will occur in a 1:1 manner. There will be a cap on the proportion of 
subjects randomized with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2 
(assessed at visit 1 as per Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI] equation) 
of 20% of the total randomized. Randomization will be stratified for eGFR at visit 1 < 45 mL/min per 
1.73 m2; eGFR obtained from central laboratory testing will be used. If the eGFR result from the 
central laboratory testing is not yet available at randomization, an eGFR result from local laboratory 
can be used if assessed within 7 days before the day of surgery up to initiation of surgery.  
Subjects are eligible for screening if they are scheduled for non-emergent (i.e., non-acute or directly 
life threatening) CABG and/or valve surgery within 4 weeks after screening. Subjects cannot be 
rescreened once screening has failed.  
Study visits include safety and efficacy assessments: chemistry, hematology and urinalysis laboratory 
assessments, urinary output (UO), pregnancy test, physical examination, vital signs, blood pressure 
and assessment of adverse events (AEs). In addition, blood and urine will be sampled for 
pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenomics (PGx), metabolomics and biomarker 
assessments.  
Visit 1/Screening  
The screening visit is the visit in which the indication for cardiovascular surgery is set, and the 
surgery will take place within 28 days from this visit. If the subject agrees to take part in the study, 
informed consent will be obtained at this visit before performing any study related procedures. 
Subjects will be assessed for presence of inclusion criteria and absence of exclusion criteria before 
surgery. Medical history and medication use (up to 28 days before screening) will be recorded. 
Subjects will be clearly instructed that randomization and treatment with investigational compound or 
placebo will occur after end of surgery and only if the subject qualifies for the NC AKIRisk score 
criterion as detailed below. 
Double-blind Treatment Period (Visits 2, 3, 4 and 5) 
Visit 2/Day of Surgery 
Baseline assessments are performed before surgery on the day of surgery, including medication use 
between screening and day of surgery, safety laboratory tests, kidney function (eGFR, SCr and serum 
cystatin C), biomarkers (e.g., kidney injury molecule-1, NC), vital signs and cardiac function 
(previous ejection fraction data from recent echocardiogram).  
During surgery, various parameters will be recorded (e.g., incision time, cardiopulmonary bypass 
pump [CPB] time, volume and type of blood products and infused fluids, UO and total blood loss). 
End of surgery for this study protocol is referred to as Time point 0 (T0), which is defined as the time 
point when the subject comes off the CPB (i.e., the final separation from CPB and normal circulation 
is restored). This time point is recorded by the perfusionist in the subject’s chart.  
Four hours (with a range of 2 hours before and after) postsurgery (i.e., 2 to 6 hours after T0), a urine 
sample will be collected and the concentration of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 and insulin-
like growth factor binding protein-7 will be assessed utilizing the NC device as per the package insert 
instructions. The urine sample should be fresh (i.e., not from accumulated urine in the bag, so the bag 
should be emptied before the sample is taken); it can be obtained in the operating room/theater, 
recovery room or in the intensive care unit (ICU), as long as it is within the range of 2 to 6 hours post 
T0. The device will calculate the AKIRisk score. If NC assessment is positive (AKIRisk score  
> 0.3 ng/mL2/1000), the subject will be randomized and will start treatment within 8 hours after T0 as 
per the randomization schedule.

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
If the first result is of the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000, the NC assessment should be redone 
once only if within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0 (i.e., the urine sample for NC should be taken 
within the 2 to 6 hours post T0 range).  
If the NC assessment is negative (AKIRisk score ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 [at first and second 
measurements, if applicable]) or not assessable within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0, NC 
assessment may be repeated for up to 4 times within 22 hours after T0. Urine sampling should be 
done at intervals of at least 1 hour. If all the NC assessments are negative up to 22 hours after T0, the 
subject cannot be randomized and will be followed up in the observational cohort (see below). 
Randomized subjects will receive 3 subsequent treatments with ASP1128 or matching placebo, which 
will be administered intravenously through a peripheral/central catheter. The first administration of 
study drug will occur after randomization, as soon as possible after the positive NC. If NC is positive 
in the initial 2 to 6 hours post T0 period, the first dose of IP should be completed within 8 hours after 
T0. If NC is positive in any of the additional NC measurements within 22 hours after T0, the first 
dose should be completed as soon as possible but within 24 hours after T0.  
In case of reoperation on the day of surgery, the same time range for NC and drug administration 
applies in relation to T0 (i.e., NC between 2 and 22 hours and first investigational drug administration 
within 24 hours). A reoperation is no reason for not enrolling a subject as long as the NC can be 
performed at the described time points. 
After surgery, UO will be monitored, safety assessments will be done and laboratory tests (including 
NC, SCr, cystatin C and other biomarkers) will be performed as per the Schedule of Assessments 
[Table 1]. 
Visits 3, 4 and 5 
If the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 hours after T0, the second dose of IP will 
be administered at 24 hours after T0 and the third dose of IP will be at 48 hours after T0. If the first 
dose of IP administration is completed past 8 hours after T0, the second dose of IP will be 
administered at 16 hours after the start of the first dose, and the third dose of IP will be administered 
at 40 hours after the start of the first dose IP.  A window of 2 hours before and after the designated 
time is allowed. Applicable assessments will be done as per the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] up 
to 72 hours after T0 (visit 5) to assess the study endpoints, including AKI (based on SCr and UO). 
When the subject is in the ICU, UO per 12 hours and total fluid intake per 24 hours (including blood 
products and intravenous fluid input) must be recorded. When the subjects are in the ICU, the time to 
ventilator weaning will be recorded. 
Follow-up 
It is assumed that the subjects will be in the hospital up to at least 1 week after the surgery. On days 5, 
6 and 7 after T0 (visits 6, 7 and 8, respectively) applicable assessments will be performed to assess 
study endpoints, including AKI (based on SCr). After end of all the procedures of visit 5, subjects can 
be discharged at the discretion of the investigator. If the subject is discharged before day 7, visit 8 will 
be done on the day of discharge and no site visits are required after discharge up to day 7. If the 
subject is discharged after day 7, visit 8 will be done on day 7 and no additional assessments are 
required after day 7 up to discharge, but the last result of SCr before discharge from local laboratory 
testing will be collected. Following day 7 (visit 8) or discharge, subjects will be followed up on 
day 30 (visit 9) and 90 (visit 10) following surgery. On visits 9 and 10, a composite endpoint of major 
adverse kidney events (MAKE) (all-cause mortality, renal replacement therapy [RRT] and/or ≥ 25% 
sustained reduction in eGFR) will be assessed.

Total number of hospital days and ICU days during initial hospitalization will be recorded. If the 
subjects are readmitted to hospital for any reason during the 90 follow-up days, the total number of 
hospitalizations and number of days hospitalized through day 30 and 90 will be recorded. 
Observational Cohort 
If at randomization NC is negative (AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000) at all assessments between 
2 and 22 hours after T0, the subject cannot be randomized. These subjects will be included in the 
observational cohort. The rationale for following the subjects in the observational cohort is to further 
evaluate the AKIRisk score, as well as other risk factors (including clinical characteristics and 
biomarkers) for AKI and MAKE. The observational cohort will enroll a maximum of 440 subjects.  
The subjects in this cohort can be discharged at the discretion of the investigator and will be followed 
up after surgery for assessment of AKI up to 7 days (AKI-SCr using SCr values from local laboratory 
testing and 24-hour UO to assess stage 3 AKI-UO) and for assessment of MAKE event at day 30 and 
day 90. Hospital and ICU stay will also be recorded. AEs and medication use will be recorded until 
24 hours after T0. Urine samples will be collected for NC and biomarker assessments. If available, 
local laboratory test results and 24-hour UO data will be collected from medical records. No additional 
blood samples will be taken for study purposes after visit 2. See Schedule of Assessments below 
[Table 2].

Sample Size Justification:  
Sample Size: 220 randomized subjects (110 subjects in the ASP1128 group and 110 subjects in the 
placebo group). 
The above sample size provides 80% power to detect the difference between ASP1128 and placebo 
on the primary endpoint of AKI proportion in the case of not considering an interim analysis, 
assuming the following: 
• 
AKI proportion in the placebo group is 60% 
• 
Relative risk of ASP1128 against placebo is 0.7 (30% reduction)

• 
1-sided significance level is 0.05 
• 
Drop-out rate is around 10% 
In addition, an interim analysis at 60% of enrollment as described below is planned by East® 6 
software. Considering the interim analysis, the power is 78%. 
• 
Futility stop criteria: conditional power to detect the relative difference between ASP1128 and 
placebo on the primary endpoint of AKI proportion is less than 10%, that is, 1-sided p-value is 
larger than 0.259, when approximately 60% of the planned AKI-SCr72h data have been collected 
in the study. 
• 
There will be no provision to stop the study for efficacy in the interim analysis, so no efficacy 
stop criteria are defined. 
Primary Efficacy Analysis: 
The primary efficacy endpoint of AKI (AKI-SCr72h) proportion will be analyzed using the Cochran-
Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test with strata to control for baseline eGFR (< 45, ≥ 45) on the Full 
Analysis Set (FAS). The FAS is defined as all randomized subjects who receives at least 1 dose of 
study treatment (ASP1128 or placebo), and the analysis is based on the randomized treatment. The 
Mantel-Haenszel (MH) estimate of the common risk ratio and 2-sided 90% confidence interval will 
be calculated. 
The hypothesis testing on the primary analysis will be performed at 2-sided 0.10 significance level to 
test the null hypothesis that AKI-SCr72h proportion is equal between the 2 treatment arms versus the 
alternative hypothesis that AKI-SCr72h proportion is different between the ASP1128 arm vs the 
placebo arm.  
The supplementary analysis for the primary efficacy endpoint will be performed on the Per Protocol 
Set, which includes all subjects in the FAS and do not have any major protocol deviations. 
As sensitivity analysis, chi-square test will be performed to evaluate the appropriateness of CMH test 
with strata to control for baseline eGFR (< 45, ≥ 45). The estimate of the unadjusted risk ratio and 
2-sided 90% confidence interval will be calculated. 
Additional sensitivity analysis will be performed to evaluate the impact on the analysis of AKI-
SCr72h proportions due to any missing data/assessments and any loss to follow-up. 
Secondary Efficacy Analysis: 
The secondary efficacy endpoints proportions (AKI-SCr7d, AKI-KDIGO72h, AKI-KDIGO7d, 
MAKE30, MAKE90) will be analyzed using the stratified CMH test with strata to control for baseline 
eGFR (< 45, ≥ 45) on the FAS. The hypothesis testing will be performed at 2-sided 0.10 significance 
level. The MH estimate of the common risk ratio and 2-sided 90% confidence intervals will be 
calculated. 
As sensitivity analysis, chi-square test will be performed to evaluate the appropriateness of CMH test 
with strata to control for baseline eGFR (< 45, ≥ 45). The estimates of the risk ratio and 2-sided 90% 
confidence intervals will be calculated.  
Additional sensitivity analysis will be performed to evaluate the impact on the analysis of MAKE 
proportions due to any missing data/assessments and any loss to follow-up. 
Safety Analyses: 
The Safety Analysis Set (SAF) is defined as all subjects who receive at least 1 dose of study treatment 
(ASP1128 or placebo). 
The safety evaluation will be based mainly on AEs, clinical laboratory and vital signs. Descriptive 
statistics will be used to summarize safety data. All safety data will be summarized by treatment. 
All summaries of AEs will include only treatment-emergent events unless otherwise stated. AEs will 
be categorized by system organ class and preferred term using MedDRA.

Pharmacokinetics Analyses: 
Summary statistics (number of subjects, mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variation [CV] and 
median, minimum, maximum, geometric mean and geometric CV) will be tabulated using the data on 
plasma concentrations of ASP1128. Standard graph will be produced. Plasma pharmacokinetic 
parameters for ASP1128 will be summarized using descriptive statistics. 
Pharmacodynamics Analyses: 
Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize gene expression data in the pharmacodynamics 
analysis set. These endpoints will be summarized graphically. 
Exploratory Analyses: 
Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize exploratory efficacy endpoint on the FAS.  
The statistical analyses on other exploratory endpoints include: 
 
• 
CMH test on exploratory endpoints of all-cause mortality, RRT, eGFR reduction proportions,  
AKI proportions 
• 
Wilcoxon-test for AKI severity, AKI duration, number of hospital days, number of ICU days, 
number of hospitalization and number of readmissions 
• 
Kaplan-Meier estimator and log-rank test for time to AKI-SCr72h, time to AKI-SCr7d and time 
to ventilator weaning. 
Other Analyses:  
The Prognostic Factor Analysis Set (PFAS) is defined as the NC positive subjects, who are 
randomized to the placebo group, and the NC negative subjects, who are in the observational cohort. 
The prognostic factors for the followings will be explored and they will be compared to NC test in the 
PFAS. 
• 
AKI-SCr72h 
• 
AKI-SCr7d

Interim Analysis: 
A formal interim analysis for futility is planned when approximately 60% of the planned AKI-SCr72h 
data have been collected in the study to evaluate whether ASP1128 has particularly poor efficacy 
compared to placebo while the study is ongoing. When conditional power to detect the difference 
between ASP1128 and placebo on the primary endpoint of AKI-SCr72h proportion is < 10%, that is, 
2-sided p-value is > 0.518 and/or MH estimate of the common risk ratio (ASP1128/placebo) is > 1, 
the study may stop. No interim stop for efficacy is planned, so the overall 2-sided 0.10 significance 
level is controlled.  
A Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will be instated to perform the interim analysis, which may 
recommend (nonbinding) terminating the study for unfavorable results at the interim analysis as 
described above. 
Details for the interim analysis, primary endpoint of AKI-SCr72h proportion will be contained in the 
interim analysis plan and DMC Charter. Recommendations regarding study conduct will be made by 
the DMC based on their assessment of this result. If the study is stopped at the interim analysis, a final 
analysis will be conducted after the database will be locked.

AE: adverse event; APACHE-II: acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II; DoD: day of discharge from hospital; EoS: end of study; EQ-5D-5L: 5-level European Quality of 
Life 5 Dimensions Questionnaire; ICU: intensive care unit; O: if possible; PGx: pharmacogenomics; T0: time point 0; UO: urine output. 
1. The preoperative period is defined as the part of the day of surgery before the incision. The peri-operative period is defined as the period between incision and T0 (i.e., the time 
point when the subject comes off the cardiopulmonary bypass pump [CPB]). The postoperative period is the period after T0. 
2. During surgery, the following data have to be assessed in the electronic case report form (eCRF): Procedures (coronary artery bypass graft surgery and/or valve surgery, thoracic 
aortic surgery, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, use of ventricular assist device, redo cardiac surgery) and duration of CPB; lowest intraoperative mean arterial pressure; 
perioperative fluid balance and medication (fluid intake, UO, blood products, drain output, blood loss, inotropics/vasopressors and furosemide); time of incision and closing of 
skin; T0 and perioperative complications. 
3. If the subject is discharged from hospital before day 7, visit 8 will be done on the day of discharge and no site visits are required after discharge up to day 7. If discharged after 
day 7, no additional assessments are required after day 7 up to discharge except for the recording SCr from local laboratory testing. 
4. At days 30 and 90, only body weight needs to be measured. A full physical examination is not required. 
5. Subjects will only be randomized if postoperative NephroCheck® (NC) AKIRisk® score (assessed between 2 to 22 hours after T0) is > 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000. If the AKIRisk score is 
≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000, the subject cannot be randomized and will be followed up in the observational arm, see Schedule of Assessments [Table 2].  
NC measurements at visits 3, 4 and 5 do not have to be performed at sites: urine samples at visits 3, 4 and 5 will be taken, but frozen until later assessment at central lab.  
6. Safety central laboratory tests including serum creatinine (SCr) and cystatin C. 
7. If the subject is discharged from hospital after day 7, the last result of SCr before discharge from local laboratory testing will be collected. 
8. UO assessment: from T0 (visit 2) to T72 (visit 5) when the subject is in the ICU, UO will be recorded every 12 hours and fluid intake will be recorded every 24 hours. The eCRF 
should indicate when UO data have to be recorded from the subject ICU record. During the first 72 hours following surgery (i.e., visits 3 to 5), the investigator will be asked to 
record information on AKI-UO stages 1 to 3 in the eCRF to assess their occurrence as per investigator discretion. When the subject is discharged from the ICU, but is still in the 
hospital UO and fluid intake every 24 hours will be recorded up to day 7 (visit 8). 
9. Include albuminuria dipstick. 
10. The first dose of investigational product (IP)/study drug to be administered as soon as possible after the NC AKIRisk score is assessed between 2 and 22 hours after T0 is > 0.3 
(ng/mL)2/1000 to allow completion of first treatment within 24 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 hours after T0, the second dose of IP will 
be administered at 24 hours after T0 and the third dose of IP will be administered at 48 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed past 8 hours after T0, the 
second dose of IP will be administered at 16 hours after the start of the first dose, and the third dose of IP will be administered at 40 hours after the start of the first dose of IP. 
Second and third dosing of the IP: a 2-hour treatment window before or after designated administration time is allowed. 
11. Additional urine samples will be taken and stored to assess various clinical and compound related biomarkers. 
12. AE will be collected from informed consent until visit 9 or until the subject is determined to be a screen failure. If the subject is discontinued from the study prior to visit 9, AEs 
will be collected until the EoS visit has been completed. After the end of all the procedures of visit 9 until visit 10, only serious AEs will be collected. 
13. Assess data on renal replacement therapy, mortality, ICU stay, total hospital stay and duration of mechanical ventilation (time ventilation weaning, i.e., time from T0 to 
extubation).

14. APACHE-II score is recorded on visit 2 preoperatively, postoperatively and during the time of drug administration at visits 2, 3 and 4 and at day 4 (visit 5) if the subject is still in 
the ICU. Results from local laboratory testing can be used, and the result closest to the indicated time points should be recorded. 
15. Blood samples for pharmacokinetics will be collected at predose, at end of infusion and twice after study drug administration at 2 to 4 hours postdose and at 4 to 12 hours postdose 
of first administration, at end of infusion of second administration, and at predose and at end of infusion of third administration. 
16. Blood samples for gene expression measurements will be collected at predose and 2 to 4 hours postdose of first and third administrations.  
17. Visit 1 can be close to the day of surgery. If the results from the central laboratory testing of AST, ALT, total bilirubin and eGFR are not yet available at time of randomization, 
results from local laboratory can be used for verifying randomization requirements if assessed within 7 days before the day of surgery up to initiation of surgery. When the surgery 
is scheduled within 2 days after screening visit 1 and it is not feasible to perform blood and/or urine samplings at visit 1, the sampling at visit 1 can be by-passed if the results from 
local laboratory are available for verifying randomization requirements.  
18. Presurgery pregnancy test at the day of surgery will be assessed locally with urine dipstick test. 
19. When an assessment of a full physical examination is available and performed within 30 days before surgery, the assessment can be used even if it was performed prior to the 
informed consent.

INTRODUCTION 
1.1 
Background 
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a clinical syndrome characterized by rapid loss of renal function 
and is associated with increased morbidity and short and long term mortality. AKI occurs as a 
result of various etiologies, such as sepsis, cardiac surgery, exogenous and endogenous 
nephrotoxins and others [Bellomo et al, 2012].  Renal ischemia and reperfusion injury is 1 of 
the most common and significant causes of developing AKI [Bonventre & Yang, 2011].  AKI 
is associated with tubular dysfunction and as tubular cells rely on oxidative phosphorylation 
to provide energy, mitochondrial dysfunction has been recognized as a key factor in 
progression of tubular damage leading to AKI [Ishimoto & Inagi, 2016].  Persistent 
mitochondrial dysfunction occurs within damaged proximal tubular cells after AKI and may 
contribute to the sustained injury observed in these renal regions [Hall & Schuh, 2016; 
Ishimoto & Inagi, 2016].  In nonclinical studies, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor δ 
(PPARδ) modulators have been demonstrated to increase gene expression of mitochondrial 
associated genes resulting in an increase in mitochondrial function through increased fatty 
acid oxidation, as well as decreases in inflammation and fibrosis [Feng et al, 2014; Sahebkar 
et al, 2014]. The non-clinical pharmacology data generated with ASP1128 show that it 
prevents or reduces the impact of surgery-induced AKI by increasing expression of PPARδ 
target including mitochondrial function-related genes in the kidney. As has been shown in the 
rat AKI model, these effects are associated with improved renal injury and function 
parameters. Therefore, PPARδ modulators may show beneficial effects on AKI. 
Various definitions of AKI are used in the literature, but the most widely used are described 
in the 2012 Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines [KDIGO, 
2012] [see also Section 2.3 Endpoints]. Approximately 2 million major cardiovascular 
operations are performed globally per year, and AKI occurs often in this subject population. 
AKI stages 1 to 3 occur in 22.3% and an estimated 1.6% to 5.8% develop AKI that requires 
dialysis and has an overall mortality of 30% [Hu, 2016]. A large cohort study of 
4466 subjects undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and/or valve surgery 
showed a similar occurrence of AKI: of all AKI 20.1%, and in those with chronic kidney 
failure (CKD) at baseline, 34.1% were reported to have AKI after surgery [Billings et al, 
2016]. 
Cardiovascular surgery is associated with significant systemic ischemia and reperfusion 
because of the nature or the surgical processes: clamping of the aorta and the use of 
cardio-pulmonary bypass pump (CPB) and general low systemic blood flow will cause 
systemic visceral ischemia, while the restoration of the circulation at the end of the surgery 
(i.e., when the subject is taken off of the CPB) will induce reperfusion of the ischemic 
viscera. Various factors contribute to the development of AKI following cardiovascular 
surgery. These include the use of nephrotoxic agents (e.g., aminoglycoside antibiotics, 
radio-contrast), renal hypoxia (e.g., catecholamine release, emboli), hemo-dilution, toxins 
released after blood cell injury (e.g., heme pigments, catalytic iron), oxidative stress, and 
inflammation [Fuhrman & Kellum, 2017; Thiele et al, 2015].

So far, no specific medical treatment for AKI has been established. Primary treatment of AKI 
consists of management of blood pressure and cardiac output, which require careful titration 
of fluids and vasoactive medication. Vasopressors can further reduce blood flow to the 
tissues if there is insufficient circulating blood volume. Conversely, subjects with AKI are 
also at increased risk for fluid overload and continued fluid resuscitation despite increased 
intravascular volume can cause harm. Fluids and vasoactive medications should be managed 
carefully and in concert with hemodynamic monitoring. Available therapies to manage 
hypotension include fluids, vasopressors and protocols, which integrate these therapies with 
hemodynamic goals [KDIGO, 2012]. 
Renal replacement therapy (RRT) might play a key role in the treatment of critically ill 
subjects with AKI. Several clinical issues associated with RRT for AKI are yet to be solved. 
There is some consensus regarding the most appropriate RRT modality (intermittent or 
continuous RRT) and the optimal RRT dose for AKI. No definitive conclusions have been 
reached concerning the optimal timing of the initiation and discontinuation of RRT, the use 
of anticoagulants during RRT, and the most suitable dialysis membranes for AKI. Further 
investigations are needed to improve the morbidity and mortality rate of subjects with AKI 
[Negi et al, 2016]. 
ASP1128 (also known as MA-0217) is a new molecular entity and a potent and highly 
selective PPARδ modulator. 
Peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARs) act as transcription factors when 
activated and modulate (increase or decrease) gene transcription [Lee & Kim, 2015].  
Activated PPAR protein complexes bind to a variety of transcription factors in combinations 
that regulate expression of specific sets of genes.  In this way, many functions are regulated, 
such as fatty acid uptake and oxidation, cell proliferation and differentiation, lipid 
metabolism and inflammation [Takahashi et al, 2007].  Of the 3 PPAR isoforms (PPARα, 
PPARδ and PPARγ), PPARδ is most ubiquitously expressed, and is detected in a variety of 
tissues/cells in many systems including cardiovascular, urinary, respiratory, digestive, 
endocrine, nervous, hematopoietic, immune, musculoskeletal, sensory and reproductive organ 
systems [Higashiyama et al, 2007]. 
PPARδ is naturally activated by fatty acid ligands such as long-chain fatty acids, prostacyclin, 
lipoprotein lipase and very low-density lipoprotein [Takahashi et al, 2007].  As such, PPARδ 
expression levels are highest in metabolically active tissues such as skeletal muscle, liver and 
adipose tissue [Kleiner et al, 2009]. 
ASP1128 is being developed to prevent AKI or reduce its severity in subjects who are at 
increased risk of developing moderate to severe AKI after CABG and/or valve surgery. 
ASP1128 is believed to have protective effects on kidney cells that are under cellular stress as 
a result of ischemia, inflammation and oxidative stress following CABG and/or valve 
surgery. In addition, ASP1128 will reduce inflammatory responses and increased oxidative 
stress systemically, which is expected to reduce the immediate consequences of stress 
responses following CABG and/or valve surgery. Because injury occurs at a discrete point in 
time (i.e., after CPB is ended) in these subjects the timing of interventional treatment can be

planned and monitored accurately. This way treatment with ASP1128 can be timed optimally 
to provide efficacy in this subject population. 
The phase 1 combined single and multiple ascending intravenous dose study was conducted 
to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics of intravenously 
administered ASP1128 in healthy adult and healthy elderly subjects [Study 1128-CL-0101]. 
Additionally, the drug was shown to be safe and well tolerated. 
The present clinical study is a phase 2a proof of concept, double-blind, randomized, 
placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of ASP1128 in subjects at risk for AKI 
following CABG and/or valve surgery. 
1.2 
Nonclinical and Clinical Data 
1.2.1 
Nonclinical Data 
Key nonclinical data are summarized in this section.  A detailed summary of nonclinical data 
is found in the Investigator’s Brochure (IB). 
Unless stated otherwise in this summary of nonclinical data, all administrations in in vivo 
studies were intravenous. 
ASP1128 is a potent and selective PPARδ modulator with a half-maximal effective 
concentration of 5.9 and 158 nmol/L against human and rat PPARδ, respectively.  For 
human, selectivity for PPARδ over PPARα and PPARγ was more than 20000-fold.  
Selectivity for the rat has not been determined.  Potency and selectivity in monkey could not 
be determined due to limitations of species-specific tools available. 
ASP1128 (10 µmol/L, 4.61 µg/mL) was tested for affinity against a panel of receptors, ion 
channels, cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and transporters.  ASP1128 did not result in 
more than 50% inhibition in any of the targets tested. 
The efficacy of ASP1128 in AKI was tested in a rat ischemia reperfusion injury model with 
intravenous treatment starting 4 hours post reperfusion.  ASP1128 was effective in inhibiting 
ischemia reperfusion injury effects on renal function and kidney injury endpoints at a dose of 
0.3 mg/kg. 
Gene expression of PPARδ responsive genes in both blood and kidney tissue has been used 
to determine target engagement of ASP1128 in vivo.  ASP1128 administered intravenously 
to normal rats at doses of 0.3, 3 and 10 mg/kg induced PPARδ target genes in blood and 
kidney tissue between 1 and 12 hours following administration at all dose levels. 
Plasma protein binding of ASP1128 at 10 µmol/L was 96.1%, 98.1%, 97.3% and 99.4% in 
mice, rats, monkeys and humans, respectively. 
No human specific ASP1128 metabolites were formed by human hepatocytes.  The main 
metabolites were estimated to be a glucuronide of ASP1128 and a metabolite formed via ring 
opening of the methylimidazole followed by acetylation and deimination.

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
ASP1128 did not show inhibitory potential for CYP metabolizing enzymes in vitro. 
Preliminary data suggest a weak CYP1A2 induction potential. 
Two Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) 2-week toxicity studies were conducted: 1 in monkeys 
and the other in rats. 
In the GLP 2-week toxicity study in monkeys, ASP1128 was administered by intravenous 
bolus injection at doses of 0, 1, 10 and 60 mg/kg per day.  At a dose of 60 mg/kg (1.5 mL/kg 
body weight at 40 mg/mL), several clinical signs including decreased activity, abnormal 
posture, ataxia (once in 1 animal), tremor, twitching, rapid breathing and salivation were 
observed shortly after dose administration and had resolved within 1 hour postdose.  During 
the second study week of the 2-week toxicity study in monkeys, clinical signs including 
excessive struggling, vocalizing and salivation were observed during dose administration of 
60 mg/kg and had resolved within 1 hour postdose.  Despite trying different veins for dose 
administration, and decreasing the formulation concentrations (down to 20 mg/mL), these 
clinical signs returned upon each dose administration.  For ethical reasons, it was decided to 
stop dosing the animals on days 9 or 10.  Subsequent histopathological and clinical chemistry 
assessments did not reveal abnormalities in any organ, including the central nervous system.  
At doses of 1 and 10 mg/kg, no effects were observed.  The no observed adverse effect level 
(NOAEL) was 10 mg/kg.  In the GLP 2-week toxicity study in rats, ASP1128 was 
administered at doses of 0, 3, 10 and 30 mg/kg per day.  No adverse finding was observed in 
any examination and the NOAEL was 30 mg/kg. 
A cardiovascular safety pharmacology study was conducted in monkeys at doses of 0, 10, 30 
and 60 mg/kg.  At doses from 10 to 60 mg/kg, rapid and dose related increases in arterial 
blood pressure ranging from 22% to 35% were observed and had resolved within 1 hour 
postdose.  At a dose of 60 mg/kg, an increase in heart rate of 29% was observed and had also 
resolved within 1 hour postdose.  No effect of ASP1128 on QT or corrected QT interval was 
observed. 
In human ether à go go related gene (hERG) transfected HEK293 cells, the hERG current 
was inhibited up to 22.3% and 21.0% at 100 and 300 µM, respectively. 
ASP1128 did not have any effect in neurobehavioral tests conducted as part of the 2-week 
repeated dose toxicity study in rats up to the highest tested dose of 30 mg/kg per day. 
A safety pharmacology study on the respiratory system in monkeys did not reveal any effect 
of ASP1128 on respiratory parameters up to doses of 60 mg/kg administered by intravenous 
bolus injections. 
ASP1128 did not reveal any genotoxic potential in the AMES test up to 5000 µg/plate.  In the 
in vitro chromosomal aberration test in human peripheral blood lymphocytes, ASP1128 was 
positive for the induction of structural chromosomal aberrations in the presence of an 
exogenous metabolic activation, and ASP1128 was negative for the induction of structural 
chromosomal aberrations in the absence of the exogenous metabolic activation system and 
negative for the induction of numerical chromosomal aberrations under all test conditions.  In 
an in vivo peripheral blood micronucleus assay in rats, ASP1128 at intravenous doses up to

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
60 mg/kg per day was considered to be negative for clastogenic activity and/or disruption of 
the mitotic apparatus.  In the in vivo comet assay in rats, ASP1128 at intravenous doses up to 
60 mg/kg was considered to be negative for induction of DNA damage in the liver.  Overall 
and in conclusion, even though a positive result was noted in 1 in vitro study (chromosomal 
aberration test), the negative results in 2 appropriate in vivo studies (micronucleus assay and 
comet assay) are considered sufficient to demonstrate absence of genotoxic risk of ASP1128 
in accordance with the International Council for Harmonization of Technical Requirements 
for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) guideline S2 (R1). 
The results of the in vitro phototoxicity test with cultured mammalian cells (Balb/c 3T3 cells) 
indicate absence of phototoxicity of ASP1128.  ASP1128 did not cause hemolysis or 
flocculation in human peripheral blood up to 1000 µg/mL. 
In a preliminary non-GLP 5-day toxicity study in rats, ASP1128 was administered as 
intravenous bolus injections at a dose of 100 mg/kg.  Dosing was stopped after the second 
dose because of injection site reactions (i.e., minimal to moderate congestion and 
vasodilatation, mild edema, mild to moderate hemorrhage and minimal to moderate 
inflammation).  These injection site reactions suggest that ASP1128 has the potential to cause 
local irritation.  No local irritation was observed in any other toxicity study. 
1.2.2 
Clinical Data 
Study 1128-CL-0101 is a first-in-human phase 1 randomized, placebo-controlled, combined 
single and multiple ascending intravenous dose study to assess the safety, tolerability, 
pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ASP1128 in healthy adult subjects and healthy 
elderly subjects. Preliminary results of 1128-CL-0101 study are summarized in this section. 
For detailed information on the study, please refer to the IB. 
Part 1 Single Ascending Dose: 
A total of 49 healthy adult subjects have been enrolled into the 6 dose cohorts ranging from 
0.3 to 100 mg. ASP1128 was well tolerated in healthy adult subjects after a single 
intravenous administration. All of treatment- emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild. 
The most commonly reported TEAEs regarded to be related to study drug was feeling hot.  
Increase in dose from 0.3 to 100 mg seemed dose proportional for Cmax, and a little more than 
dose proportional for AUC24 with a low to moderate between-subject variability. The t1/2 for 
3 mg and higher dose groups ranged from 8.92 to 16.7 hours.  
ASP1128 at dose levels of 10 mg or higher showed consistent, treatment- and 
dose-dependent up-regulation of the PPARδ target genes in the whole blood cell. The gene 
set test revealed statistical significant result for 10, 30 and 100 mg dose levels.  
Part 2 Multiple Ascending Dose:  
A total of 48 healthy adult subjects have been enrolled into the 4 dose cohorts ranging from 
3 to 100 mg and 5 healthy elderly subjects have been enrolled into the 1 dose cohort 
(100 mg). ASP1128 was well tolerated in healthy adult subjects and healthy elderly subjects

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
after a once daily intravenous administration for 7 days. All of TEAEs were mild. The most 
commonly reported TEAEs regarded to be related to study drug was infusion site reaction.  
Increase in dose from 3 to 100 mg seemed dose proportional for Cmax, and AUCtau with a low 
between-subject variability. The t1/2 ranged from 8.75 to 17.4 hours. Rac (AUC)s and PTRs 
were consistent across the dose range of 3 to 100 mg ASP1128. Cmax and AUCtau were 
slightly higher in elderly relative to nonelderly subjects.  
ASP1128 at dose levels of 10 mg or higher showed consistent, treatment- and 
dose-dependent up-regulation of the PPARδ target genes in the whole blood cell. The gene 
set test revealed statistical significant result for 10, 30 and 100 mg dose levels.  
1.3 
Summary of Key Safety Information for Study Drugs 
ASP1128 showed proof of principle in animal studies for the applicability of the modulation 
of the PPARδ effect (i.e., improved mitochondrial function, inflammation and fibrosis) to 
ameliorate and prevent AKI. 
There was no evidence for the formation of human-specific metabolites and no other critical 
absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination or excretion issues that would prevent 
conducting clinical studies.  
The main toxicity findings from the safety pharmacology and toxicity studies of ASP1128 
were hemodynamic effects (short-lived increases in blood pressure and heart rate), clinical 
signs at high dose (60 mg/kg per day) and potential local irritation. The clinical signs 
observed at 60 mg/kg in the monkey 14-day toxicity study included excessive struggling, 
vocalizing, salivation, decreased activity, abnormal posture, rapid breathing, ataxia, tremors 
and twitching. They occurred shortly after infusion and are thought to be related to local 
irritation of the high concentration drug substance during infusion. The exposure margins for 
the findings are large. These findings were all transient, but will be monitored in the phase 2 
clinical study. 
Based on historical safety concerns with PPARδ and γ modulators, effects on cardiac and 
skeletal muscle tissue were assessed in exploratory toxicity studies. At high exposures, 
minimal degeneration in cardiac and skeletal muscle was observed. These findings were not 
confirmed in follow up 14-day GLP-toxicity studies. In addition, no changes were observed 
in markers for cardiac or muscle toxicity (cardiac troponins and creatine kinase [CK]). 
Although a direct toxic effect of ASP1128 on cardiac and skeletal muscle is considered 
unlikely, monitoring of vital signs, troponins, CK and CK-isoenzymes were be included in 
the phase 1 clinical study. These did not show clinically significant changes. Similar 
monitoring will be continued in the current study. 
In the clinical phase 1 study (1128-CL-0101), there were no deaths or SAEs during the study. 
Drug treatment was discontinued on day 7 in 1 subject who received 3 mg in the multiple 
dosing cohort. On day 6 the subject reported a TEAE of infusion site erythema (mild of 
severity and recovering on day 7). The most commonly reported TEAEs regarded to be 
related to study drug in the single dose part were “feeling hot” (3 subjects 100 mg ASP1128),

and in the multiple dosing part 7 “infusion site reactions” (2 in 3 mg, 1 in 30 mg and 4 in 
100 mg ASP1128). Drug-related TEAEs were considered to be mild and monitorable in the 
clinic, and have proven to be reversible upon stopping of treatment.  No TEAEs from other 
preclinical toxicological targets were observed, except for local irritation (i.e., infusion site 
reactions, swelling and erythema). However, they were considered mild in severity and 
occurred on average after 5 days of multiple infusion. It was therefore concluded that 
peripheral intravenous administration is feasible in the current study.  There were no 
clinically relevant findings in any of the laboratory parameters, vital signs or ECG 
assessments. No minimally intolerable dose or maximally tolerable dose was identified, 
because the tolerability of ASP1128 was overall good up to the highest dose (100 mg once 
daily up to 7 days). In phase 1, there was no need to dose higher than 100 mg, because 
upregulation of expression of genes related to the mode of action of ASP1128 seemed to 
stabilize below and around a dose of 100 mg and plasma concentrations of doses higher than 
100 mg would approach the exposure limit. 
1.4 
Risk Benefit Assessment 
Based on preclinical data there is a realistic probability that ASP1128 may be efficacious in 
the treatment of AKI. Therefore, subjects at risk of AKI, for which there currently is no 
approved drug treatment available, may benefit from treatment with ASP1128. Furthermore, 
a time and dose-dependent pharmacodynamic effect on expression of genes involved in the 
mechanism of action of ASP1128 was observed from doses of 10 mg onwards and was 
maintained during multiple dosing of 7 days. This effect indicates pharmacological effect of 
ASP1128, which may translate into clinical efficacy in AKI. 
For ASP1128, the toxicological target organs and other AEs that were identified at high 
doses in the nonclinical toxicology studies in animals include hemodynamic effects, clinical 
signs of distress at high dose and potential local irritation.  
Preliminary results of the phase 1 single ascending dose and multiple ascending dose study 
indicate that doses up to 100 mg once daily (single and up to 7 days multiple dosing) are safe and 
well tolerated in non-elderly and elderly healthy volunteers. However, in the current study 
subjects might experience AEs that may be related to the study drug or to procedural 
complications (e.g., infusion site reactions or inconvenience from blood draws). There are no 
severe side effects expected from the study treatment.  Furthermore, for AEs reported in the first 
in man study, effects were regarded to be monitorable and reversible upon stopping of treatment. 
Subjects randomized to the placebo arm are unlikely to benefit from the study while subjects 
in the non-placebo treatment arm of the study may benefit from reduction of severity of AKI 
during the study.  At randomization subjects have 50% chance of being randomized to either 
of the arms, but it has to be emphasized that subjects randomized into the placebo group will 
not be denied any treatment for AKI, related or non-related conditions. 
Additionally, enrollment in the study may be seen as an opportunity to contribute to the 
discovery of an effective drug for this unmet medical need. In general, the subject is free to

withdraw from the study treatment and/or study at any time, which can be done if they 
experience side effects or inconvenience from participation in the study. 
The sponsor considers that the overall benefit-risk ratio to treat patients at risk for AKI is 
acceptable with a confirmed positive signal on targeted pharmacological effect in phase 1 
healthy volunteers and a low risk to subjects participating in current study.

Study Design and Dose Rationale 
2.2.1 
Study Design 
The study is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study with 1 ASP1128 and 
1 placebo treatment arm. Randomization will occur in a 1:1 manner. There will be a cap on 
the proportion of subjects randomized with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 
< 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2 (assessed at visit 1 as per the Chronic Kidney Disease 
Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI] equation) of 20% of the total randomized. 
Randomization will be stratified for eGFR at visit 1 < 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2. The eGFR 
will be calculated using the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation equation.

The subject’s age at visit 1 should be used for calculation in this study. 
Subjects are eligible for screening if they are scheduled for non-emergent (i.e., non-acute or 
directly life threatening) CABG and/or valve surgery within 4 weeks after screening. Subjects 
cannot be rescreened once screening has failed. 
Study visits include safety and efficacy assessments: chemistry, hematology and urinalysis 
laboratory assessments, urinary output (UO), pregnancy test, physical examination, vital 
signs, blood pressure and assessment of AEs. In addition, blood and urine will be sampled for 
pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenomics (PGx), metabolomics and 
biomarker assessments. 
Visit 1/Screening 
The screening visit is the visit in which the indication for cardiovascular surgery is set, and 
the surgery will take place within 28 days from this visit. If the subject agrees to take part in 
the study, informed consent will be obtained at this visit before performing any study related 
procedures. Subjects will be assessed for presence of inclusion criteria and absence of 
exclusion criteria before surgery.  Medical history and medication use (up to 28 days before 
screening) will be recorded. Subjects will be clearly instructed that randomization and 
treatment with investigational compound or placebo will occur after end of surgery and only 
if the subject qualifies for the NC AKIRisk® score criterion as detailed below. 
Double-blind Treatment Period (Visits 2, 3, 4 and 5) 
Visit 2/Day of Surgery 
Baseline assessments are performed before surgery on the day of surgery, including 
medication use between screening and day of surgery, safety laboratory tests, kidney function 
(eGFR, SCr and serum cystatin-C), biomarkers (e.g., kidney injury molecule-1 [KIM1], NC 
[see Section 5.4.2 Laboratory Assessments, Table 7), vital signs and cardiac function 
(previous ejection fraction data from recent echocardiogram). 
During surgery, various parameters will be recorded (e.g., incision time, CPB time, volume 
and type of blood products and infused fluids, UO and total blood loss). End of surgery for 
this study protocol is referred to as T0, which is defined as the time point when the subject 
comes off the CPB (i.e., the final separation from CPB and normal circulation is restored). 
This is thought to be the time point when the ischemia-reperfusion state starts that mediated 
the development of tubular damage and AKI. This time point is recorded by the perfusionist 
in the subject chart. 
Four hours (with a range of 2 hours before and after) postsurgery (i.e., 2 to 6 hours after T0) a 
urine sample will be collected and the concentration of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 
(TIMP2) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-7 (IGFBP7) will be assessed utilizing 
the NC device as per the package insert instructions. The urine sample should be fresh (i.e., 
not from accumulated urine in the bag so the bag should be emptied before the sample is 
taken); it can be obtained in the operating room/theater, recovery room or in the intensive 
care unit (ICU), as long as it is within the range of 2 to 6 hours post T0. For urine [TIMP-2] *

[IGFBP7], a cutoff of 0.3 yielded good sensitivity and specificity at 4 hours after CPB 
[Meersch et al, 2014] and constituted an increased risk for developing AKI [Meersch et al, 
2017]. The NC device will calculate the AKIRisk score. If NC is positive, i.e., the result of 
the AKIRisk score is > 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000, the subject will be randomized and start treatment 
within 8 hours after T0 as per randomization schedule. 
If the first result of the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000 the NC assessment should be 
redone once only if within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0 (i.e., the urine sample for NC 
should be taken within the 2 to 6 hours post T0 range).  
If the NC is negative, i.e., the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000 (at first and second 
measurement, if applicable) or not assessable within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0, NC 
assessment may be repeated up to 4 times until 22 hours after T0. Urine sampling should be 
done at intervals of at least 1 hour. If all the NC assessments are negative up to 22 hours after 
T0, the subject cannot be randomized and will be followed up in the observational cohort (see 
below). 
Randomized subjects will receive 3 subsequent treatments with ASP1128 or matching 
placebo, which will be applied intravenously through a peripheral/central catheter. The first 
administration of study drug will occur after randomization, as soon as possible after the 
positive NC. If NC is positive in the initial 2 to 6 hours post T0 period, the first dose of IP 
should be completed within 8 hours after T0. If NC is positive in any of the additional NC 
measurements within 22 hours after T0, the first dose should be completed as soon as 
possible but within 24 hours after T0. 
In case of reoperation on the day of surgery (e.g., for immediate surgical complications like 
ongoing hemorrhage), the same time range for NC and drug administration applies in relation 
to T0 (i.e., NC between 2 and 22 hours and first investigational drug administration within 
24 hours). A reoperation is no reason for not enrolling a subject as long as the NC can be 
performed at the described time points. If for any reason the AKIRisk score cannot be 
assessed within the 2 to 22 hours from T0, the subject cannot be randomized and will be a 
screen failure. If the subject is randomized, but for any reason the first administration of the 
study drug cannot be done within 24 hours after T0, the subject should not be withdrawn 
from the study as an intention-to-treat principle. The indication of reoperation will be 
recorded as an adverse event (AE) in the electronic case report form (eCRF) as well as the 
(reason for) missed drug administration. 
Study drug will need to be prepared for infusion by the study staff in the ICU. A detailed 
instruction is described in the pharmacy manual. The pH of the solution for injection is 
around 10 and there is a minor risk for irritation at the infusion site. Based on the results of 
the phase 1 study in healthy subjects it was determined that administration via a central line is 
allowed, but not required. The study drug can also be infused in a peripheral line on the 
forearm. The chosen peripheral line has to be reserved for study drug administration to avoid 
physicochemical interaction. If subjects have a central line this can be used for administration 
of study drug provided that 1 of the lumina is reserved for study drug in order to avoid 
physicochemical interactions.

After surgery, UO will be monitored, safety assessments will be done and laboratory tests 
(including NC, serum creatinine (SCr; cystatin-C and other biomarkers) will be performed as 
per the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1]. 
Visit 3, 4 and 5 
It is expected that the subject will leave the ICU within 12 to 48 hours after surgery, but will 
remain in the hospital. Drug administration may be done via a central line in the ICU; 
however, this central line may have to be removed when the subject leaves the ICU. In this 
case, the study drug can also be infused in a peripheral line on the forearm. The chosen 
peripheral line has to be reserved for study drug administration to avoid physicochemical 
interaction. Please note that blood samples for pharmacokinetic measurements should be 
taken from a different location than the location of the peripheral intravenous device used for 
drug administration. A detailed instruction on drug preparation and administration is 
described in the pharmacy manual. 
If the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 hours after T0, the second dose of 
IP will be administered at 24 hours after T0 and the third dose of IP will be administered at 
48 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed past 8 hours after T0, the 
second dose of IP will be administered at 16 hours after the start of the first dose, and the 
third dose of IP will be administered at 40 hours after the start of the first dose of IP. 
Applicable assessments will occur as per the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] up to 
72 hours after T0 (visit 5) to assess the study endpoints, including AKI (based on SCr and 
UO). When the subject is in the ICU, UO per 12 hours and total fluid intake per 24 hours 
(including blood products and intravenous fluid input) must be recorded. 
In case of reoperation, or any other event that interferes with study drug administration, at the 
time of second or third administration of study drug, the subject will not be discontinued. A 
window of 2 hours before and after the designated time is allowed. The indication of 
reoperation will be recorded as an AE in the eCRF, as well as the (reason for) missed drug 
administration or changed drug administration time if applicable. 
When the subjects are in the ICU the time to ventilator weaning (i.e., the time from T0 to 
extubation) will be recorded. 
Follow up 
It is assumed that the subjects will be in the hospital up to at least 1 week after the surgery. 
On days 5, 6 and 7 after T0 (visits 6, 7 and 8, respectively), applicable assessments will be 
performed to assess study endpoints, including AKI (based on SCr). After end of all the 
procedures of visit 5, subjects can be discharged at the discretion of the investigator. If the 
subject is discharged before day 7, visit 8 will be done on the day of discharge and no site 
visits are required after discharge up to day 7. If the subject is discharged after day 7, visit 8 
will be done on day 7 and no additional assessments are required after day 7 up to discharge, 
but the last result of SCr before discharge from local laboratory testing will be collected. 
Following day 7 (visit 8) or discharge, subjects will be followed up on day 30 (visit 9) and 
90 (visit 10) following surgery. On visits 9 and 10 a composite endpoint of major adverse

kidney events (MAKE), including all-cause mortality, RRT and/or ≥ 25% sustained reduction 
in eGFR will be assessed.  
Total number of hospital days and ICU days during initial hospitalization will be recorded. If 
the subjects are readmitted to hospital for any reason during the 90 follow-up days, the total 
number of hospitalizations and number of days hospitalized through day 30 and 90 will be 
recorded. 
Observational Cohort 
If at randomization NC is negative (AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 at all assessments 
between 2 and 22 hours after T0), the subject cannot be randomized. These subjects will be 
included in the observational cohort.  The observational cohort will enroll a maximum of 
440 subjects. The aim of following up the subjects in the observational cohort is to further 
evaluate the AKIRisk score, as well as other risk factors (including clinical characteristics 
and biomarkers) for AKI and MAKE. Clinical endpoints will be investigated in the 
subgroups defined by AKIRisk score at randomization and other baseline risk factors, in the 
population of the NC positive subjects, who are randomized to the active or the placebo 
group, and the NC negative subjects, who are in the observational cohort. The subjects in this 
cohort can be discharged at the discretion of the investigator and will be followed up after 
surgery for assessment of AKI up to 7 days (acute kidney injury based on serum creatinine 
KDIGO criteria [AKI-SCr] using SCr values from local laboratory testing and 24-hour UO to 
assess stage 3 AKI-UO) and for assessment of MAKE event at day 30 and day 90. Hospital 
and ICU stay will also be recorded. AEs and medication use will be recorded until 24 hours 
after T0. Urine samples will be collected for NephroCheck® (NC) and biomarker 
assessments. If available, local laboratory test results and 24-hour UO data will be collected 
from medical records. No additional blood samples will be taken for study purposes after 
visit 2. See Schedule of Assessments [Table 2]. 
2.2.2 
Dose Rationale 
A dose of 100 mg once daily was selected for this proof-of-concept study. This dose was 
considered safe and well-tolerated in the phase 1 study 1128-CL-0101 with up to 7 days 
multiple dosing in healthy non-elderly and elderly subjects.  
Pharmacokinetics of ASP1128 (Cmax and AUC24) increased dose proportionally ranging from 
3 mg to 100 mg in multiple doses in healthy non-elderly subjects. Because of the limited 
exposure data in the elderly subjects (n = 3) an age difference (higher exposure in elderly) 
could not be ruled out. In both elderly and non-elderly plasma exposure of 100 mg was 
well-balanced vs exposure limit set on non-clinical adverse local irritation effects. 
PPARδ target gene up-regulation demonstrated consistently and dose dependent increase. 
The gene set test reveals statistical significant result for 100 mg at all-time points in single 
and multiple dosing. Some genes showed saturated dose-responses at higher dose levels, i.e., 
no major increments from 30 mg to 100 mg in a single and/or multiple doses. However, some 
genes showed more extensive up-regulation at 100 mg. At 100 mg a more consistent effect 
was seen, also in “saturated” genes (i.e., earlier onset, more protracted effect).

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
Similar PPARδ target engagement patterns and saturation effects were observed 
non-clinically. In animal AKI efficacy models, dosing above the saturation point did not 
increase efficacy: 100 mg is suspected to be at this tipping point, so no higher dose proposed. 
Study treatment will be administered 3 times as follows:  
● As soon as possible after the NC AKIRisk score is assessed between 2 and 22 hours after 
T0 is > 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000. If NC is positive in the initial 2 to 6 hours post T0 period, the 
first dose of IP should be completed within 8 hours after T0. If NC is positive in any of 
the additional NC measurements within 22 hours after T0, the first dose should be 
completed as soon as possible but within 24 hours after T0. 
● If the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 hours after T0, the second dose 
of IP will be administered at 24 hours after T0 and the third dose of IP will be 
administered at 48 hours after T0.  
● If the first dose of IP administration is completed past 8 hours after T0, the second dose 
of IP will be administered at 16 hours after the start of the first dose, and the third dose of 
IP will be administered at 40 hours after the start of the first dose of IP. 
● For the second and third dose, a 2-hour treatment window before or after designated 
administration time is allowed. 
2.3 
Endpoints  
The current study will focus on assessing the emergence of AKI. AKI can be defined in 
various different ways, but in this study AKI KDIGO stage determination criteria are utilized 
[KDIGO, 2012]. 
AKI is defined as any of the following: 
● Increase in SCr by ≥ 0.3 mg/dl (≥ 26.5 µmol/L) within 48 hours 
● Increase in SCr to ≥ 1.5 times baseline, which is known or presumed to have occurred 
within the prior 7 days or 
● UO < 0.5 ml/kg per hour for 6 hours or more 
The eGFR(SCr) will be calculated using the GFR estimation equation (2009 CKD-EPI 
creatinine equation) [KDIGO, 2013]. The subject’s age at visit 1 should be used for 
calculation in this study.

Various derivations of these definitions are used as efficacy outcome parameters in the 
current study. 
A retrospective analysis of a large cohort database (HiDenIC15) inducing more than 
120000 critically and 6610 subjects undergoing cardiovascular surgery was performed in 
cooperation with Pittsburgh University. One finding was that subjects who had isolated mild 
to moderate oliguria (no increase in creatinine) postoperatively were not likely to develop 
clinically significant related MAKE. Therefore, it was concluded that stage 1 AKI based on 
UO was not clinically relevant, and data on UO for 12 hours, not 6 hours, will be recorded in 
the current study to be able to analyze stage 2 and 3 AKI-UO.

Primary Endpoints 
Proportion of subjects developing AKI (any stage) based on SCr criteria from the KDIGO

in SCr to ≥ 1.5 times baseline) within 72 hours after T0 (AKI-SCr72h).

4.2 
Packaging and Labeling 
All study drugs used in this study will be prepared, packaged and labeled under the 
responsibility of qualified staff at sponsor’s designee in accordance with sponsor’s designee 
Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) guidelines, 
ICH Good Clinical Practices (GCP) guidelines and applicable local laws/regulations. 
Each vial will bear a label conforming to regulatory guidelines, GMP and local laws and 
regulations that identifies the contents as investigational drug. 
4.3 
Study Drug Handling 
Current ICH GCP Guidelines require the investigator to ensure that study drug deliveries 
from the sponsor are received by the investigator/or designee and that: 
● Such deliveries are recorded 
● Study drug is handled and stored according to labeled storage conditions 
● Study drug with appropriate expiry/retest date is used and is only dispensed to study 
subjects in accordance with the protocol 
● Any unused study drug is returned to the sponsor 
Study drug inventory and accountability records will be kept by the investigator or designee. 
Study drug accountability throughout the study must be documented and reconciled. The 
following guidelines are therefore pertinent: 
● The investigator or designee agrees not to supply study drugs to any persons except the 
eligible subjects in this study in accordance with the protocol. 
● The investigator or designee (i.e., study drug manager) will keep the study drugs in a 
pharmacy or other locked and secure storage facility under controlled storage conditions, 
accessible only to those authorized by the investigator to dispense these study drugs. 
● A study drug inventory will be maintained by the investigator or designee (i.e., study 
drug manager). The inventory will include details of material received and a clear record 
of when they were dispensed and to which subject. 
● At the conclusion or termination of this study, the investigator or designee (i.e., study 
drug manager) agrees to conduct a final drug supply inventory and to record the results of 
this inventory on the Drug Accountability Record. It must be possible to reconcile 
delivery records with those of used and/or returned study drug. Any discrepancies must

be accounted for and documented. Appropriate forms of deliveries and returns must be 
signed by the site staff delegated this responsibility. 
● The site staff must return study drug to the sponsor or designee at the end of the study or 
upon expiration unless otherwise approved by the sponsor. 
4.4 
Blinding 
4.4.1 
Blinding Method 
For the purpose of this study, the efficacy and safety of ASP1128 and placebo will be 
compared in a double-blind manner. ASP1128 and placebo will be indistinguishable in 
appearance. Packaging for each treatment group will also be indistinguishable in appearance. 
The randomization number will be assigned based on information obtained from the 
interactive response technology (IRT). The randomization code will remain confidential until 
completion of the study. 
4.4.2 
Confirmation of the Indistinguishability of the Study Drugs 
The appearance and the form of both the drug and packaging of ASP1128 are identical to 
those of their matching placebo. 
4.4.3 
Retention of the Assignment Schedule and Procedures for Treatment Code 
Breaking  
The randomization list and study drug blind will be maintained by the IRT system. 
4.4.4 
Breaking the Treatment Code for Emergency  
The treatment code for each randomized subject will be provided by the IRT in the event of a 
medical emergency requiring knowledge of the treatment assigned to the subject. The IRT 
will be programmed with blind-breaking instructions that may only be requested by the 
investigator or subinvestigators designated to have access to perform blind-break. In case of a 
medical emergency, the investigator has the sole responsibility for determining if unblinding 
of subject’s treatment assignment is warranted. Subject safety must always be the first 
consideration in making such determination. If the investigator decides that unblinding is 
warranted, the investigator should make every effort to contact the sponsor prior to 
unblinding a subject’s treatment assignment unless this could delay emergency treatment for 
the subject.  
The investigator must have confirmed functionality to access code-break through the IRT 
system and must have a designated back up (e.g., redundant processes) to support emergency 
unblinding requirements.  
Prior to randomization, subjects should be provided with information that includes the site 
emergency contact number and back-up contact number in case of a medical emergency. Any 
unblinding by the investigational staff must be reported immediately to the sponsor and 
include an explanation of why the study drug was unblinded. If unblinding is associated with 
a SAE the investigator is to follow the instructions in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious 
Adverse Events].

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
Care should be taken to limit knowledge of the randomization arm, in case this could affect 
the blinding of other subjects or future study assessment for the subject.  
4.4.5 
Breaking the Treatment Code by the Sponsor  
The sponsor may break the treatment code for subjects who experience a Suspected 
Unexpected Serious Adverse Reaction (SUSAR), in order to determine if the individual case 
or a group of cases requires expedited regulatory reporting. Individual Emergency Codes will 
be provided to the limited staff who are responsible to break the codes for all SUSAR cases 
for reporting purposes. 
4.5 
Assignment and Allocation 
Subjects who have a NC AKIRisk score of > 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000 will be randomized in a 1:1 
ratio to a treatment arm according to the randomization schedules through IRT. There will be 
a cap on the proportion of subjects randomized with a eGFR < 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2 
(assessed at visit 1 as per CKD-EPI equation) of 20% of total randomized. Randomization 
will also be stratified for eGFR < 45 and ≥ 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2 to allocate subjects 
equally between study groups within each stratification. The site personal will dispense the 
treatment according to the IRT system’s assignment. Specific procedures for randomization 
through the IRT are contained in the study procedures manual.  
Subjects with NC AKIRisk score of 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 or less will be enrolled in the 
observational cohort. The observational cohort will enroll a maximum of 440 subjects.

Dosing and Administration of Study Drug(s) and Other 
Medication(s) 
5.1.1 
Dose/Dose Regimen and Administration Period 
5.1.1.1 Randomized Subjects 
Randomized subjects will receive 3 subsequent treatments with 100 mg of ASP1128 or 
matching placebo. The study drugs will be supplied as solution in 20 mL vial, which contains 
10 mL of 5 mg/mL ASP1128 or 10 mL of matching placebo. The study drugs will be applied 
intravenously through a peripheral/central catheter. The catheter should remain until the last 
administration ends. The first administration of study drug will occur after randomization, as 
soon as possible after positive NC. If the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 
hours after T0, the second dose of IP will be administered at 24 hours after T0 and the third 
dose of IP will be administered at 48 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is 
completed past 8 hours after T0, the second dose of IP will be administered at 16 hours after 
the start of the first dose, and the third dose of IP will be administered at 40 hours after the 
start of the first dose of IP.  For the second and third dosing of IP, a 2-hour treatment window 
before or after the designated administration time is allowed.  
The preparation and administration procedures of study drug will be described in the 
pharmacy manual.

5.1.1.2 Subjects in the Observational Cohort 
If the NC is negative, i.e., the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 at all assessments 
between 2 and 22 hours after T0, the subject cannot be randomized. These subjects will be 
included in the observational cohort and receive no study drug administration. 
5.1.2 
Increase or Reduction in Dose of the Study Drug(s) 
Dose increases and decreases are not allowed. 
5.1.3 
Previous and Concomitant Treatment (Medication and Non-Medication 
Therapy) 
The investigator should record the use of previous (up to 28 days before screening) and 
concomitant (any medication between screening and surgery, and following surgery to EoS) 
treatment in the eCRF, both medication and non-medication treatments. Subjects should be 
instructed not to start any new medication, both prescribed and over-the-counter (including 
herbals, alternative and homeopathic medicines) or non-medication treatments, without 
consulting the investigator, unless the new treatment is required for emergency use. In 
addition, non-medication treatments, including pacemakers, use of LVAD, IABP or other 
cardiac devices should be reported (also refer to exclusion criterion #11). 
Medication Treatment 
Prescribed, over-the-counter and all alternative medicines will be recorded. This includes 
medicines used on a chronic or as needed basis. Previous medicines taken within the 28 days 
prior to screening (visit 1) will be recorded. 
To assess the possible contribution of nephrotoxic drugs to the occurrence of postsurgery 
AKI all medications taken from screening to day of surgery should be recorded. Special 
attention should be given to known neprotoxins (e.g., intravenous radio-contrast) and 
aminoglycosides. Nephrotoxic drugs should be avoided if possible, but will not be prohibited 
if clinically indicated. Subjects can only be enrolled providing the subject meets the criteria 
for enrollment, most specifically the subject should not have AKI (any stage) present at 
presurgery baseline (exclusion criterion #18). If the required clinical use of nephrotoxic 
medications results in conditions that exclude the subject from study enrollment the subject is 
not eligible for study participation. 
Non-Medication Treatment 
During the study non-medication treatment is not prohibited if clinically indicated. 
Non-medication treatments, including pacemakers, use of LVAD, IABP or other cardiac 
devices should be reported (also refer to exclusion criterion #11). Previous treatment taken 
within the 28 days prior to screening (visit 1) will be recorded.  
5.1.3.1 Prohibited and Restricted Treatment 
A list of prohibited medications is provided in [Appendix 12.4 List of Excluded Concomitant 
Medications].

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
Prohibited Medications 
Medications that may significantly affect plasma creatinine levels without influencing kidney 
function are prohibited. These medications should be stopped more than 28 days before 
screening until EoS. They include cimetidine, trimethoprim, pyrimidine analogues or 
derivatives, phenacemide and calcitriol or alfacalcidol [Andreev, 1999]. 
Following surgery up to 72 hours postsurgery the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory 
drugs [NSAIDs], angiotensin-converting enzyme [ACE] inhibitors and angiotensin receptor 
blockers is prohibited because of their potentially confounding effect on kidney function. 
After the subject is enrolled in the observational cohort, these medications are not prohibited 
if clinically indicated. 
Restricted Medications 
Restricted medication are medications, which are permitted to be used during the study 
provided that the subject has been taking the medication on a long-term basis, the subject 
remains on the medication at the same dose during the course of the double-blind treatment 
period and the follow-up period. Medication use is not restricted in the current study if 
clinically indicated. All medication used will be recorded in the eCRF. 
Prohibited non-medication treatment (from screening until EoS) 
During the study non-medication treatment is not prohibited if clinically indicated. 
5.1.4 
Treatment Compliance 
The dose (prepared and actual) and schedule of the study drugs administered to each subject 
will be recorded on the appropriate form throughout the treatment period. Reasons for dose 
delay, reduction or omission will also be recorded.  
5.1.5 
Restrictions During the Study  
Subjects ensure that the investigator will be informed about following events occurring 
outside the study sites: 
● Number of hospitalizations and number of days hospitalized 
● Start of RRT 
● Death 
5.2 
Demographics and Baseline Characteristics 
Baseline assessments are performed before surgery on the day of surgery, including safety 
laboratory tests, SCr and serum cystatin-C, biomarkers and vital signs, and will be used as 
baseline of each endpoint. 
During surgery the following parameters will be recorded: 
● 
Procedures (CABG surgery and/or valve surgery, thoracic aortic surgery, ECMO, use of 
VAD, redo thoracic surgery and indication of redo surgery). 
● 
Duration of CPB (including aortic cross clamp time)

End of surgery for this study protocol is referred to as Time point 0 (T0) which is defined as 
the time point when the subject comes off the CPB, i.e., the final separation from CPB and 
normal circulation is restored. This time point is recorded by the perfusionist in the subject 
chart.  
5.2.1 
Demographics 
Demographic information will be collected for all subjects at screening (visit 1) as allowed 
per local regulation and will include age, sex, race, ethnicity, history of smoking and history 
of alcohol and recreational drug use. Ejection fraction value will be collected from the most 
recent local echocardiography, which was conducted within 90 days before the surgery. 
5.2.2 
Medical History 
Medical history will include all significant medical conditions that have resolved prior to 
informed consent or are ongoing at the time of consent. Conditions that are ongoing at the 
time of consent will be collected as baseline conditions. Out of conditions that have resolved 
prior to informed consent, those can be a risk factor of AKI will be collected. Risk factors as 
per the KDIGO guideline [KDIGO, 2012] and the data source are described in Table 4. 
Several AKI risk factors will not be present at the start of the current study because they are 
exclusion criteria (e.g., sepsis, critical illness, cancer, major non-cardiac surgery), or will not 
be a significant factor because the study includes non-emergent surgery only (burns, trauma). 
Details that will be collected include the onset date and recovery date for resolved conditions 
(including any prior AKI) and, if applicable for ongoing conditions.

5.3 
Efficacy, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Assessments 
5.3.1 
Efficacy Assessments 
Laboratory tests and UO will be performed to assess occurrence and severity of AKI. An 
incidence of MAKE will be assessed until visit 10. MAKE is a composite endpoint including 
all-cause mortality, RRT and/or ≥ 25% sustained reduction in eGFR. All-cause mortality over 
30 and 90 days and the number of subjects needing RRT over 30 and 90 days will be also 
assessed. Sustained loss of renal function is defined as a reduction of kidney function (i.e., a 
reduction of eGFR of 25% or more compared to the baseline presurgery sample at visit 2) 
assumed to be present longer than 24 hours at the time of assessment, i.e., at day 30 and 
day 90 following surgery. 
The numbers of hospital days and ICU days during initial hospitalization and up to day 30 
and 90, respectively, will be also recorded, as well as the number of readmissions to the ICU 
and hospital. 
5.3.1.1 Laboratory Assessments 
Biochemistry tests utilized for AKI assessment, SCr and serum cystatin-C, will be done 
according to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] [see also Section 5.4.2 Laboratory 
Assessments]. SCr and S-cystatin-C data will also be used to calculate the number of subjects 
with ≥ 25% reduction in eGFR (based on SCr or S-cystatin-C) and proportion of subjects 
with renal recovery [see Section 2.3.3 Exploratory Endpoints]. If the subject is discharged 
from hospital after day 7, the last result of SCr before discharge from local laboratory testing 
will be collected. 
5.3.1.2 Urinary Output 
For randomized subjects, UO every 12 hours and total fluid intake every 24 hours will be 
recorded when the subject is in the ICU. During the first 72 hours following surgery (i.e., 
visit 3 to visit 5) the investigator will record information on AKI-UO stages 1 to 3 in the 
eCRF to assess their occurrence as per investigator discretion. When the subject is discharged 
from the ICU, but is still in the hospital, UO and fluid intake every 24 hours will be recorded 
up to day 7 (visit 8). 
5.3.1.3 Follow-up Parameters 
In addition to safety labs, vital signs, AEs and medication use for randomized subjects data 
on RRT, mortality, ICU stay, total hospital stay and duration of mechanical ventilation (time 
ventilation weaning, i.e., time from T0 to extubation) will be collected and assessed 
according to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1]. Postoperative inotropic/vasopressor use 
should be registered on the ICU in the medication list. These include phosphodiesterase 
inhibitors (amrinone, milrinone), antidiuretic hormone analogues (vasopressin), pure alpha 
adrenergic agonists (phenylephrine) and both natural (epinephrine, dopamine) and synthetic 
(dobutamine, dopexamine) catecholamines [Williams et al, 2011].

5.3.1.4 Quality of Life 
The EQ-5D-5L is an international standardized non-disease specific (i.e., generic) instrument 
for describing and valuing health status. It is a multidimensional measure of health-related 
quality of life, capable of being expressed as a single index value and specifically designed to 
complement other health status measures [EuroQol Group, 1990; Herdman et al, 2011].  
The EQ-5D-5L has 5 dimensions: Mobility, Self-Care, Usual Activities, Pain/Discomfort and 
Anxiety/Depression.  Each dimension has 5 response levels (e.g., no problems, slight 
problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems/unable to perform the 
activity). In addition, it has a visual analogue scale that elicits a self-rating by the respondent 
of his/her health status. 
The EQ-5D-5L will be completed at or after visit 1 up to visit 2 (presurgery), at visit 8 (day 7 
or hospital discharge), at visit 9 (day 30) and at visit 10 (day 90). 
5.3.1.5 APACHE-II Score 
APACHE-II is a prognostic scoring system used to quantify severity-of-disease in adult ICU 
subjects [Knaus et al, 1985]. An integer score from 0 to 71 is computed based on several 
measurements; higher scores correspond to more severe disease and a higher risk of death. 
To measure severity of disease 12 physiologic variables constitute the Acute Physiology 
Score (APS; Table 5): pulse rate, mean arterial blood pressure, temperature, respiratory rate 
or alveolar oxygen partial pressure, alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient, hematocrit, white blood 
cell count, SCr, serum sodium, serum potassium, pH arterial and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS; 
Table 6). The weighted outcomes of these APS parameters are combined with information 
about previous health status (i.e., Chronic Health points based on recent surgery, history of 
severe organ insufficiency, immunocompromised state; see below) and baseline age 
demographics to calculate the overall score (= APS points + Age points + Chronic Health 
points).

The GCS is a neurological scale (ranging from 3 to 15) which aims to give a reliable and 
objective way of recording the conscious state of a subject for initial as well as subsequent 
assessment based on eye movement, verbal and motor function categories [Teasdale, 1974]. 
The GCS is the sum score of the Eye, Verbal and Movement scores [Table 6]. As lower scores 
indicate worse outcomes, the GCS subtracted from 15 is included in the APACHE-II score.

Chronic Health Points should be added to the total score when the subject has a history of 
severe organ system insufficiency or is immunocompromised as defined below. Assign 
points as follows: 5 points for non-operative or emergency postoperative subjects and 
2 points for elective postoperative subjects.  
Organ insufficiency or immunocompromised state must have been evident prior to this 
hospital admission and are defined to be present when 1 of the following conditions apply 
conform to the following criteria: 
● Liver biopsy proven cirrhosis and documented portal hypertension; episodes of past upper 
GI bleeding attributed to portal hypertension; or prior episodes of hepatic 
failure/encephalopathy/coma.  
● Cardiovascular: New York Heart Association Class IV.  
● Respiratory: Chronic restrictive, obstructive, or vascular disease resulting in severe 
exercise restriction (i.e., unable to climb stairs or perform household duties; or 
documented chronic hypoxia, hypercapnia, secondary polycythemia, severe pulmonary 
hypertension (> 40 mmHg), or respirator dependency.  
● Renal: receiving chronic dialysis.  
● Immunocompromised: the subject has received therapy that suppresses resistance to 
infection (e.g., immunosuppression, chemotherapy, radiation, long term or recent high 
dose steroids) or has a disease that is sufficiently advanced to suppress resistance to 
infection (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome).

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
The APACHE-II score will be measured on visit 2 preoperatively and postoperatively during 
the time of drug administration at visits 2, 3 and 4, and at day 4 (visit 5) if the subject is still 
on the ICU. Results from local laboratory testing can be used and the results closest to the 
indicated time points should be recorded in the eCRF. 
5.3.2 
Pharmacokinetic Assessments 
Blood samples will be collected for pharmacokinetic analysis of ASP1128 as indicated in the 
Schedules of Assessments [Table 1]. Each sample should be collected before a meal as much 
as possible and fed or fasted state will be recorded in the eCRF. Definition of fasting is at 
least 10 hours passed after subject last ate. The sample time schedule is as the followings: 
● First administration: predose, at end of infusion and twice after study drug administration 
at 2 to 4 hours postdose and at 4 to 12 hours postdose 
● Second administration: at end of infusion 
● Third administration: predose and at end of infusion 
The actual date and time of pharmacokinetic blood sample collection will be documented in 
the source. Blood sample collection, handling and storage will be described in the laboratory 
manual. Blood samples may not be collected from the same arm as where the intravenous 
infusion will be administered. 
5.3.3 
Pharmacodynamic Assessments 
Blood samples will be collected for the analysis of expression of genes indicating target 
engagement as indicated in the Schedules of Assessments [Table 1]. Key genes are those that 
are considered to be pivotal for the efficacy mechanism of action of ASP1128, i.e., genes 
involved in the regulation of fatty acid oxidation (carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1α, acetyl-
coenzyme A acyltransferase 2, pyruvate dehydrogenase lipoamide kinase isozyme 4, ATP 
binding cassette subfamily A member 1, catalase, acyl-CoA dehydrogenase very long chain 
and solute carrier family 25 member 20). The sample time schedule is as follows:  
● First administration: predose and 2 to 4 hours after study drug administration 
● Third administration: predose and 2 to 4 hours after study drug administration 
The actual date and time of pharmacodynamic blood and urine sample collection will be 
documented in the source. Blood and urine sample collection, handling and storage will be 
described in the laboratory manual.

Safety Assessment 
5.4.1 
Vital Signs 
Vital signs, including systolic and diastolic blood pressure (mmHg), pulse (beats/minute) and 
body temperature will be obtained according to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] and 
recorded. All vital sign measures will be obtained with the subject in the sitting or supine 
position prior to the administration in case on the day of administration of study drug.

Laboratory Assessments 
The laboratory tests that will be performed during the conduct of the study are provided in 
Table 7 Laboratory tests will be performed according to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] 
and sent to a central laboratory for analysis except for the presurgery pregnancy test. 
Presurgery pregnancy test at the day of surgery will be assessed locally with urine dipstick test. 
If the results from the central laboratory testing of AST, ALT, total bilirubin and eGFR at visit 
1 are not yet available at time of randomization, results from local laboratory can be used for 
verifying randomization requirements if assessed within 7 days before the day of surgery up 
to initiation of surgery.  
When the surgery is scheduled within 2 days after screening visit 1 and it is not feasible to 
perform blood and/or urine samplings at visit 1, the sampling at visit 1 can be by-passed if the 
results from local laboratory are available for verifying randomization requirements. 
If the subject is discharged from hospital after day 7, the last result of SCr before discharge 
from local laboratory testing will be collected.

Physical Examination  
A full physical examination will be performed at screening to assess general appearance, 
skin, eyes, ears, nose, throat, neck, cardiovascular, chest and lungs, abdomen, 
musculoskeletal, neurologic status, mental status and lymphatic systems. Significant medical 
conditions will be recorded in appropriate eCRF (Medical History or AEs). When an 
assessment of a full physical examination is available and performed within 30 days before 
surgery, the assessment can be used even if it was performed prior to the informed consent.  
At screening, body weight and height are measured and recorded. If body weight and height 
are available within 30 days before surgery, they still need to be measured at the screening 
visit. At visit 9 and visit 10, only body weight needs to be measured and recorded.

5.5 
Adverse Events and Other Safety Aspects 
5.5.1 
Definition of Adverse Events  
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a study drug, which 
does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.  An AE can 
therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), 
symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal 
product whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. 
In order to identify any events that may be associated with study procedures and could lead to 
a change in the conduct of the study, Astellas collects AEs even if the subject has not 
received study drug treatment. AE collection begins after the signing of the ICF. 
For screen failures, AEs will be collected until the subject is determined to be a screen 
failure. 
For randomized subjects, all AEs will be collected until visit 9. If the subject is discontinued 
from the study prior to visit 9, AEs will be collected until the EoS visit has been completed. 
After end of all the procedures of visit 9 until visit 10, only SAEs will be collected.  
For subjects in the observational cohort, AEs will be collected until 24 hours after T0. 
However, AEs related to MAKE parameters will be collected until the EoS visit. This 
includes events resulting in death or in RRT or relating to reduction in renal function. 
Care will be taken not to introduce bias when detecting AEs and/or SAEs. Open-ended and 
non-leading verbal questioning of the subject is the preferred method to inquire about 
AE occurrences. 
5.5.1.1 Abnormal Laboratory Findings 
Any abnormal laboratory test result (e.g., hematology, clinical chemistry, or urinalysis) or 
other safety assessment (e.g., radiographic scans, vital signs measurements, physical 
examination), including those that worsen from baseline, that is considered to be clinically 
significant in the medical and scientific judgment of the investigator and not related to 
underlying disease, is to be reported as an (S)AE. 
Any clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding or other abnormal safety assessment 
that is associated with the underlying disease does not require reporting as an (S)AE, unless 
judged by the investigator to be more severe than expected for the subject’s condition. 
Repeating an abnormal laboratory test or other safety assessment, in the absence of any of the 
above criteria, does not constitute an AE.  Any abnormal test result that is determined to be 
an error does not require reporting as an AE. 
5.5.1.2 Potential Cases of Drug-Induced Liver Injury 
Refer to [Appendix 12.5 Liver Safety Monitoring and Assessment] for detailed instructions 
on Drug Induced Liver Injury. Abnormal values in AST and/or ALT concurrent or with 
abnormal elevations in total bilirubin that meet the criteria outlined in [Appendix 12.5 Liver

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
Safety Monitoring and Assessment], in the absence of other causes of liver injury, are 
considered potential cases of drug-induced liver injury (potential Hy’s Law cases) and are 
always to be considered important medical events and reported per [Section 5.5.5 Reporting 
of Serious Adverse Events]. 
5.5.1.3 Disease Progression and Study Endpoints 
Under this protocol, the following event will not be considered as an(S)AE: 
● 
Preplanned and elective hospitalizations or procedures for diagnostic, therapeutic, or 
surgical procedures for a preexisting condition that did not worsen during the course of 
the clinical study. These procedures are collected per the eCRFs Completion Guidelines. 
5.5.1.4 Infusion Site Reactions 
When infusion site reactions at a site of administration of study drug occur, detailed information 
including site and extent of reaction and duration of event will be collected in AE eCRF When 
the infusion site reactions lead catheter relocation, relocated place of catheter will be recorded in 
appropriate eCRF as a treatment for infusion site reactions. Infusion site reactions at any other 
sites than administration site will be handled in the same way as other AEs. 
5.5.2 
Definition of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) 
An AE is considered “serious” if, in the view of either the investigator or sponsor, it results in 
any of the following outcomes:  
● 
Results in death 
● 
Is life-threatening (an AE is considered “life-threatening” if, in the view of either the 
investigator or sponsor, its occurrence places the subject at immediate risk of death. It 
does not include an AE that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might have caused 
death) 
● 
Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity or substantial disruption of the

● 
Results in congenital anomaly, or birth defect 
● 
Requires inpatient hospitalization (except for planned procedures as allowed per study) 
or leads to prolongation of hospitalization (except if prolongation of planned 
hospitalization is not caused by an AE). Hospitalization for 
treatment/observation/examination caused by AE is to be considered as serious.)  
● 
Other medically important events (defined in paragraph below) 
Medical and scientific judgment should be exercised in deciding whether expedited reporting 
is appropriate in other situations, such as important medical events that may not be 
immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization, but may jeopardize the 
subject or may require intervention to prevent 1 of the other outcomes listed in the definition 
above. These events, including those that may result in disability/incapacity, usually are 
considered serious. Examples of such events are intensive treatment in an emergency room or 
at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in 
hospitalization; or development of drug dependency or drug abuse.

5.5.2.1 Always Serious Adverse Events 
The sponsor has a list of events that they classify as “always serious” events.  If an AE is 
reported that is considered by the sponsor to be an SAE per this classification as “always 
serious”, additional information on the event (e.g., investigator confirmation of seriousness, 
causality) will be requested.   
5.5.3 
Criteria for Causal Relationship to Study Drug 
A medically qualified investigator is obligated to assess the relationship between the study 
drug and each occurrence of each (S)AE. This medically qualified investigator will use 
medical judgment as well as the Reference Safety Information to determine the relationship. 
The causality assessment is 1 of the criteria used when determining regulatory reporting 
requirements. 
The medically qualified investigator is requested to provide an explanation for the causality 
assessment for each (S)AE and must document in the medical notes that he/she has reviewed 
the (S)AE and has provided an assessment of causality. 
Following a review of the relevant data, the causal relationship between the study drug and 
each (S)AE will be assessed by answering ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to the question “Do you consider that 
there is a reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the study drug”. 
When making an assessment of causality, the following factors are to be considered when 
deciding if there is evidence and/or arguments to suggest there is a ‘reasonable possibility’ 
that an (S)AE may have been caused by the study drug (rather than a relationship cannot be 
ruled out) or if there is evidence to reasonably deny a causal relationship: 
● 
Plausible temporal relationship between exposure to the study drug and (S)AE onset 
and/or resolution. Has the subject actually received the study drug? Did the (S)AE occur 
in a reasonable temporal relationship to the administration of the study drug?  
● 
Plausibility; i.e., could the event been caused by the study drug? Consider biologic 
and/or pharmacologic mechanism, half-life, literature evidence, drug class, preclinical 
and clinical study data, etc. 
● 
Dechallenge/Dose reduction/Rechallenge:  
o Did the (S)AE resolve or improve after stopping or reducing the dose of the 
suspect drug? Also consider the impact of treatment for the event when evaluating 
a dechallenge experience.  
o Did the (S)AE reoccur if the suspected drug was reintroduced after having been 
stopped?   
● 
Laboratory or other test results; a specific lab investigation supports the assessment of 
the relationship between the (S)AE and the study drug (e.g., based on values pre, during 
and posttreatment) 
● 
Available alternative explanations independent of study drug exposure; such as other 
concomitant drugs, past medical history, concurrent or underlying disease, risk factors 
including medical and family history, season, location, etc. and strength of the alternative 
explanation

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
There may be situations in which an SAE has occurred and the investigator has minimal 
information to include in the initial report to the sponsor. However, it is very important that 
the medically qualified investigator always make an assessment of causality for every event 
before the initial transmission of the SAE data to the sponsor. With limited or insufficient 
information about the event to make an informed medical judgment and in absence of any 
indication or evidence to establish a causal relationship, a causality assessment of ‘no’ is to 
be considered. In such instance, the investigator is expected to obtain additional information 
regarding the event as soon as possible and to reevaluate the causality upon receipt of 
additional information. The medically qualified investigator may revise his/her assessment of 
causality in light of new information regarding the SAE and shall send an SAE follow-up 
report and update the eCRF with the new information and updated causality assessment.  
5.5.4 
Criteria for Defining the Severity of an Adverse Event 
AEs, including abnormal clinical laboratory values, will be graded using the National Cancer 
Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Event (NCI-CTCAE) guidelines 
(Version 5.0). The items that are not stipulated in the NCI-CTCAE Version 5.0 will be 
assessed according to the criteria below and entered into the eCRF. 
Grade 
Assessment Standard 
1-Mild 
Asymptomatic or mild symptoms, clinical or diagnostic observations 
noted; intervention not indicated. 
2-Moderate 
Local or noninvasive intervention indicated. 
3-Severe 
Medically significant, but not immediately life threatening, 
hospitalization or prolonged hospitalization. 
4-Life Threatening 
Life threatening consequences, urgent intervention indicated 
5-Death 
Death related to AE 
 
5.5.5 
Reporting of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) 
The collection of AEs and the expedited reporting of SAEs will start following receipt of the 
ICF.  
For screen failures, AEs will be collected until the subject is determined to be a screen 
failure. 
For randomized subjects, all AEs will be collected until visit 9. If the subject is discontinued 
from the study prior to visit 9, AEs will be collected until the EoS visit has been completed. 
After end of all the procedures of visit 9 until visit 10, only SAEs will be collected.  
For subjects in the observational cohort, AEs will be collected until 24 hours after T0. 
However, AEs related to MAKE parameters will be collected until the EoS visit. This 
includes events resulting in death or in RRT or relating to reduction in renal function. 
In the case of an SAE, the investigator must contact the sponsor by fax or email immediately 
(within 24 hours of awareness).

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
The investigator must complete and submit an SAE worksheet containing all information that 
is required by local and/or regional regulations to the sponsor by email or fax immediately 
(within 24 hours of awareness).   
The SAE worksheet must be signed by a medically qualified investigator (as identified on 
Delegation of Authority Log). Signature confirms accuracy and completeness of the SAE 
data as well as the investigator causality assessment including the explanation for the 
causality assessment. 
If the SAE is associated with emergency unblinding as outlined in [Section 4.4.4 Breaking 
the Blind for Emergency] this is to be recorded on the SAE worksheet. Within the SAE 
worksheet, the investigator is to include when unblinding took place in association with the 
SAE.  
For contact details, see [Section II Contact Details of Key Sponsor's Personnel]. Fax or email 
the SAE/Special Situations Worksheet to: 
Astellas Pharma Global Development – United States 
Pharmacovigilance 
Email: Safety-US@astellas.com 
Fax number +1 888-396-3750 
If there are any questions, or if clarification is needed regarding the SAE, please contact the 
sponsor's Medical Monitor/Study Physician or his/her designee [Section II Contact Details of 
Key Sponsor’s Personnel].  
Follow-up information for the event should be sent promptly (within 7 days of the initial 
notification). 
Full details of the SAE should be recorded on the medical records, SAE/Special Situation 
Worksheet and on the eCRF. 
The following minimum information is required: 
● 
International Study Number/Study number,  
● 
Subject number, sex and age, 
● 
The date of report, 
● 
A description of the SAE (event, seriousness criteria),  
● 
Causal relationship to the study drug (including reason) and 
● 
Date(s) and time(s) of study drug administration 
The sponsor or sponsor’s designee will medically evaluate the SAE and determine if the 
report meets the requirements for expedited reporting based on seriousness, causality and 
expectedness of the events (e.g., SUSAR reporting) according to current local/regional 
regulatory requirements in participating countries. The sponsor or sponsor's designee will 
submit expedited safety reports (e.g., IND Safety Reports, SUSAR, Council for International 
Organizations of Medical Sciences [CIOMS]-I) to Competent Authorities (CA) and 
concerned Ethics Committee (cEC) per current local regulations, and will inform the 
investigators of such regulatory reports as required. Investigators must submit safety reports

as required by their IRB/IEC within timelines set by regional regulations (e.g., EMA, FDA) 
where required. Documentation of the submission to and receipt by the IRB/ local IEC of 
expedited safety reports should be retained by the site. 
The sponsor/delegated CRO will notify all investigators responsible for ongoing clinical 
studies with the study drug of all SUSARs which require submission per local requirements 
IRB/local IEC. 
The investigators should provide written documentation of IRB/IEC notification for each 
report to the sponsor. 
The investigator may contact the sponsor's medical monitor/study physician for any other 
problem related to the safety, welfare or rights of the subject. 
5.5.6 
Follow-up of Adverse Events 
All AEs occurring during or after the subject has discontinued the study are to be followed up 
until resolved or judged to be no longer clinically significant, or until they become chronic to 
the extent that they can be fully characterized by the investigator.  
If after the protocol defined AE collection period [see Section 5.5.1 Definition of Adverse 
Event], an AE progresses to a SAE, or the investigator learns of any (S)AE including death, 
where he/she considers there is reasonable possibility it is related to the study drug treatment 
or study participation, the investigator must promptly notify the sponsor. 
5.5.7 
Monitoring of Common Serious Adverse Events 
Common SAEs are SAEs commonly anticipated to occur in the study population independent 
of drug exposure. SAEs classified as “common” are provided in [Appendix 12.6 Common 
Serious Adverse Events] for reference. The list does NOT change the investigator’s reporting 
obligations, nor his obligations to perform a causality assessment, or prevent the need to 
report an AE meeting the definition of an SAE as detailed above. The purpose of this list is to 
alert the investigator that some events reported as SAEs may not require expedited reporting 
to the regulatory authorities based on the classification of “common SAEs” as specified in 
[Appendix 12.6 Common Serious Adverse Events].  The sponsor will monitor these events 
throughout the course of the study for any change in frequency. Any changes to this list will 
be communicated to the participating investigational sites. Investigators must report 
individual occurrences of these events as stated in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious 
Adverse Events].  
5.5.8 
Special Situations  
Certain Special Situations observed in association with the study drug(s), such as incorrect 
administration (e.g., wrong dose of study drug, comparator, or background therapy) are 
collected in the eCRF, as Protocol Deviation per [Section 8.3 Major Protocol Deviations] or 
may require special reporting, as described below. These Special Situations are not considered 
AEs, but do require to be communicated to Astellas as per the timelines defined below.

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
If a Special Situation is associated with, or results in, an AE, the AE is to be assessed 
separately from the Special Situation and captured as an AE in the eCRF. If the AE meets the 
definition of a SAE, the SAE is to be reported as described in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of 
Serious Adverse Events] and the details of the associated Special Situation are to be included 
in the clinical description on the SAE worksheet. 
The Special Situations are: 
● Pregnancy  
● Medication Error, Overdose and “Off-label use” 
● Misuse/abuse 
● Occupational exposure 
● (Suspicion of) Transmission of infectious agent 
● Suspected Drug-Drug interaction 
5.5.8.1 Pregnancy 
If a female subject becomes pregnant during the study period or within 30 days from the 
discontinuation of dosing, the investigator is to report the information to the sponsor 
according to the timelines in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious Adverse Events] using the 
Pregnancy Reporting Form and in the eCRF.  
The investigator will attempt to collect pregnancy information on any female partner of a 
male subject who becomes pregnant during the study period or within 30 days from the 
discontinuation of dosing and report the information to sponsor according to the timelines in 
[Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious Adverse Events] using the Pregnancy Reporting Form.  
The expected date of delivery or expected date of the end of the pregnancy, last menstruation, 
estimated conception date, pregnancy result and neonatal data etc., should be included in this 
information. 
While pregnancy itself is not considered to be an AE or SAE, any pregnancy complication or 
termination (including elective termination) of a pregnancy is to be reported for a female 
study subject as an AE in the eCRF or SAE per [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious Adverse 
Events]. For (S)AEs experienced by a female partner of a male subject, (S)AEs are to be 
reported via the Pregnancy Reporting Form.  
Additional information regarding the outcome of a pregnancy when also categorized as an 
SAE is mentioned below: 
● "Spontaneous abortion" includes miscarriage, abortion and missed abortion. 
● Death of a newborn or infant within 1 month after birth is to be reported as an SAE 
regardless of its relationship with the study drug. 
● If an infant dies more than 1 month after the birth, is to be reported if a relationship 
between the death and intrauterine exposure to the study drug is judged as "possible" by 
the investigator. 
● Congenital anomaly (including anomaly in miscarried fetus)

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
Unless a congenital anomaly is identified prior to spontaneous abortion or miscarriage, the 
embryo or fetus should be assessed for congenital defects by visual examination. (S)AEs 
experienced by the newborn/infant should be reported via the Pregnancy Reporting Form. 
Generally, follow-up will be no longer than 6 to 8 weeks following the estimated delivery 
date. 
5.5.8.2 Medication Error, Overdose and “Off-Label Use” 
If a Medication Error, Overdose or “Off label Use” (i.e., use outside of what is stated in the 
protocol) is suspected, refer to [Section 8.3 Major Protocol Deviations]. Any associated 
(S)AEs are to be reported in the eCRF. If the AE meets the definition of a SAE, the SAE is 
also to be reported as described in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious Adverse Events] 
together with the details of the medication error, overdose and/or “Off-Label Use”. 
In the event of suspected ASP1128 overdose, the subject should receive supportive care and 
monitoring. The medical monitor/expert should be contacted as applicable. 
5.5.8.3 Misuse/Abuse 
If misuse or abuse of the study drug(s) is suspected, the investigator must forward the Special 
Situation worksheet to the sponsor by fax or email immediately (within 24 hours of 
awareness). Any associated (S)AEs are to be reported in the eCRF. If the AE meets the 
definition of a SAE, the SAE is also to be reported as described in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting 
of Serious Adverse Events] together with details of the misuse or abuse of the study drug(s). 
5.5.8.4 Occupational Exposure 
If occupational exposure (e.g., inadvertent exposure to the study drug(s) of site staff while 
preparing it for administration to the subject) to the study drug(s) occurs, the investigator 
must forward the Special Situation worksheet to the sponsor by fax or email immediately 
(within 24 hours of awareness).  Any associated (S)AEs occurring to the individual 
associated with or resulting from the Special Situation are to be reported on the Special 
Situations worksheet. 
5.5.8.5 (Suspicion of) Transmission of Infectious Agent  
If transmission of an infectious agent associated with the study drug(s) is suspected, the 
investigator must forward the Special Situation worksheet to the sponsor by fax or email 
immediately (within 24 hours of awareness) and any associated (S)AEs are to be reported in 
the eCRF. If the AE meets the definition of a SAE, the SAE is also to be reported as 
described in [Section 5.5.5 Reporting of Serious Adverse Events] together with the details of 
the suspected transmission of infectious agent.  
5.5.8.6 Suspected Drug-Drug Interaction 
If a suspected drug-drug interaction associated with the study drug(s) is suspected, the 
investigator must forward the Special Situation worksheet to the sponsor by fax or email 
immediately (within 24 hours of awareness). Any associated (S)AEs are to be reported in the 
eCRF. If the AE meets the definition of a SAE, the SAE is also to be reported as described in

5.5.9 
Supply of New Information Affecting the Conduct of the Study 
When new information becomes available necessary for conducting the clinical study 
properly, the sponsor will inform all investigators involved in the clinical study as well as the 
regulatory authorities. Investigators should inform the IRB/IEC of such information when 
needed.  
The investigator will also inform the subjects, who will be required to sign an updated ICF in 
order to continue in the clinical study. 
5.5.10 Urgent Safety Measures 
An Urgent Safety Measure (USM) is an intervention, which is not defined by the protocol 
and can be put in place with immediate effect without needing to gain prior approval by the 
sponsor, relevant CA, IRB/IEC, where applicable, in order to protect study participants from 
any immediate hazard to their health and/or safety. Either the investigator or the sponsor can 
initiate an USM. The cause of an USM can be safety, product or procedure related.  
5.5.11 Reporting Urgent Safety Measures 
In the event of a potential USM, the investigator must contact the Astellas study physician 
(within 24 hours of awareness).  Full details of the potential USM are to be recorded in the 
subject’s medical records.  The sponsor may request additional information related to the 
event to support their evaluation.  
If the event is confirmed to be an USM the sponsor will take appropriate action to ensure the 
safety and welfare of the subjects. These actions may include, but are not limited to, a change 
in study procedures or study treatment, halting further enrollment in the study, or stopping 
the study in its entirety. The sponsor or sponsor's designee will notify CA and cEC within the 
timelines required per current local regulations, and will inform the investigators as required. 
When required, investigators must notify their IRB/IEC within timelines set by regional 
regulations. 
5.6 
Test Drug Concentration 
Blood samples for the analysis of ASP1128 in plasma will be collected as indicated in the 
Schedules of Assessments [Table 1] for evaluation of clinical pharmacokinetics. Each sample 
should be collected before a meal. The sample time schedule is as the followings: 
● First administration: predose, at end of infusion and twice after study drug administration 
at 2 to 4 hours postdose and at 4 to 12 hours postdose 
● Second administration: at end of infusion 
● Third administration: predose and at end of infusion 
The actual date and time of pharmacokinetic blood sample collection will be documented in 
the source. Blood sample collection, handling and storage will be described in the laboratory 
manual. Blood samples will be collected via a peripherally placed intravenous cannula or by

direct venipuncture in a suitable forearm vein. Blood samples may not be collected from the 
same arm as where the intravenous infusion will be administered. 
When deemed appropriate at a later date, plasma samples remaining after the 
pharmacokinetic analysis may be used for exploratory metabolite profiling or exploratory 
biomarker analysis after the study. These tests will be described in a separate report and will 
not be incorporated in the integrated clinical study report. 
5.7 
Other Measurements, Assessments or Methods 
5.7.1 
NephroCheck 
Urine samples will be collected as indicated in the Schedules of Assessments [Table 1] and 
[Table 2] and the concentration of TIMP2 and IGFBP7 will be assessed utilizing the NC as 
per the package insert instructions of the NC device. The device automatically multiplies the 
concentrations of the 2 biomarkers together and divides this product by 1,000 to report a 
single numeric test result with units of (ng/mL)2/1,000 (the units for all TIMP2•IGFBP7 
values in this protocol) referred to as the AKIRisk score. The urine sample should be fresh 
(i.e., not from accumulated urine in the bag), so the bag should be emptied before the sample 
is taken; on the day of surgery, it can be obtained in the operating room/theater, recovery 
room or in the ICU, as long as it is within the range of 2 to 6 hours post T0. A second urine 
sample for the assessment of the AKIRisk score can be collected within the 2 to 6 hour post 
T0 range and should be done if the first result was 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 or less. If the NC is 
negative, i.e., the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000 (at first and second measurement, if 
applicable) or not assessable within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0, NC assessment may be 
repeated for up to 4 times until 22 hours after T0. Urine sampling should be done at intervals 
of at least 1 hour [see Section 2.2.1]. The NC measurements at visits 3, 4 and 5 do not have to 
be performed at sites. Urine samples at visits 3, 4 and 5 will be taken, but frozen until later 
assessment at central lab. In the observational cohort the NC will be measured if the subject 
is still in the ICU and urine can be sampled from the catheter bag. 
5.7.2 
Biomarkers 
Urine samples will be collected for the assessment of KIM1, a primary biomarker for tubular 
damage [KDIGO, 2012], and stored for potential future analysis of other clinical and/or 
compound related biomarkers on visits 2, 3, 4, 5 and 8 as indicated in the Schedules of 
Assessments [Table 1] and [Table 2] [see also Section 5.4.2 Laboratory Assessments and 
Section 5.7.4 Subjects in the Observational Cohort].  
5.7.3 
Blood Sample for Banked PGx Sample Analysis 
A PGx research may be conducted in the future to analyze or determine genes of relevance to 
clinical response, pharmacokinetics and toxicity/safety issues. At a presurgery assessment on 
visit 2 (see schedule of assessments [Table 1]), a 6 mL sample of whole blood for possible 
retrospective PGx analysis will be collected. Samples will be shipped to a sponsor designated 
banking CRO.

banking procedures. 
5.7.4 
Subjects in the Observational Cohort 
If the NC is negative, i.e., the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 at all assessments 
between 2 and 22 hours after T0, the subject cannot be randomized. These subjects will be 
included in the observational cohort. The aim of following up the subjects in the 
observational cohort is to further evaluate the AKIRisk score, as well as other risk factors 
(including clinical characteristics and biomarkers) for AKI and MAKE. The subjects in this 
cohort can be discharged at the discretion of the investigator and will be followed up after 
surgery for assessment of AKI up to 7 days (AKI-SCr using SCr values from local laboratory 
testing and 24-hour UO to assess stage 3 AKI-UO) and for assessment of MAKE event at day 
30 and day 90. Days 30 and 90 may be conducted by phone if the subject is unable to visit 
the site. 
For subjects in the observational cohort, local laboratory test results of the parameters 
mentioned in Table 8 and 24-hours UO data will be collected, if available at visits according 
to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 2]. Urine sampling for NC and biomarkers will be 
performed separately according to the Schedule of Assessments [Table 2] for posthoc 
analysis of study outcomes, and only if the subject has a urinary catheter to facilitate 
sampling. MAKE parameters, i.e., all-cause mortality, RRT and/or ≥ 25% sustained reduction 
in eGFR based on SCr or S-Cystatin-C will be assessed according to the Schedule of 
Assessments [Table 2]. AEs and medication use will be recorded until 24 hours after T0.

DISCONTINUATION 
6.1 
Discontinuation of Individual Subject(s) From Study Treatment  
A discontinuation from treatment is a subject who enrolled in the study and for whom study 
treatment is permanently discontinued for any reason. Because study treatment will start after 
randomization discontinuation applies to randomized subjects only. The reason for 
discontinuation from study treatment must be documented in the subject’s medical records. 
The subject is free to withdraw from the study treatment and/or study for any reason and at 
any time without giving reason for doing so and without penalty or prejudice. The 
investigator is also free to discontinue the subject from study treatment or to terminate a 
subject's involvement in the study at any time if the subject's clinical condition warrants it. 
Even though a subject discontinues study-drug administration, follow-up assessment will be 
conducted to the extent possible. 
If a subject is discontinued from the study with an ongoing AE or an unresolved laboratory 
result that is significantly outside of the reference range, the investigator will attempt to 
provide follow-up until the condition stabilizes or no longer is clinically significant.  
The investigator should consider to discontinue administration of the study drug to a subject 
in any of the following cases: 
● When the study drug cannot be safely administered due to AEs as reported by the subject, 
or as per the investigator’s discretion, or when the sponsor requests discontinuation of the 
study drug due to safety issues related to the subject. 
● When the subject withdraws consent for further treatment. 
● When a female subject becomes pregnant 
● Other cases in which the investigator judges it inappropriate to continue administration of 
the study drug. 
The reason for discontinuation, medical findings, and other relevant data should be recorded

STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY 
A Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP) will be written to provide details of the analysis, along with 
specifications for tables, listings and figures to be produced. The SAP will be finalized before 
the database lock at the latest. Any changes from the analyses planned in SAP will be 
justified in the Clinical Study Report. 
In general, continuous data will be summarized with descriptive statistics (number of subjects, 
mean, SD, minimum, median and maximum) and frequency and percentage for categorical 
data. 
7.1 
Sample Size 
Sample size of this study is 220 randomized subjects (110 subjects in the ASP1128 group and 
110 subjects in the placebo group). 
The above sample size provides 80% power to detect the difference between ASP1128 and 
placebo on the primary endpoint of AKI proportion in the case of not considering an interim 
analysis, assuming the followings: 
● AKI proportion in the placebo group is 60% 
● Relative risk of ASP1128 against placebo is 0.7 (30% reduction) 
● 1-sided significance level is 0.05 
● Drop-out rate is around 10% 
In addition, an interim analysis at 60% of enrollment as described below is planned by East® 
6 software. Considering the interim analysis, the power is 78%. 
● Futility stop criteria: conditional power to detect the relative difference between ASP1128 
and placebo on the primary endpoint of AKI proportion is less than 10%, that is, 1-sided 
p-value is larger than 0.259, when approximately 60% of the planned AKI-SCr72h data 
have been collected in the study. 
● There will be no provision to stop the study for efficacy in the interim analysis, so no 
efficacy stop criteria are defined. 
Subjects who meet the presurgery selection criteria will be enrolled. Subjects who meet the 
postsurgery criterion of having a NC AKIRisk score > 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 between 2 and 22 
hours after surgery can be randomized: the number of subjects to be randomized is 220.  The 
subjects that have an AKIRisk score of ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 at the postsurgery assessment 
will be enrolled in the observational cohort. The observational cohort will enroll a maximum 
of 440 subjects. 
7.2 
Analysis Sets 
Detailed criteria for analysis sets will be laid out in Classification Specifications and the 
allocation of subjects to analysis sets will be determined prior to database hard-lock.

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
For each treatment group, the number and percentage of subjects will be characterized for all 
randomized subjects and by each analysis set. 
7.2.1 
Full Analysis Set 
The Full Analysis Set (FAS) will consist of all randomized subjects who receives at least 
1 dose of study treatment (ASP1128 or placebo), and the analysis is based on the randomized 
treatment. This will be the primary analysis set for efficacy analyses. 
7.2.2 
Per Protocol Set 
The Per Protocol Set (PPS) will consist of the subset of the FAS who do not meet criteria for 
PPS exclusion. These criteria are to capture relevant non-adherence to the protocol and will 
be defined in the SAP. Further criteria may be defined in the SAP. The PPS will be a 
secondary analysis set for efficacy analyses. Select demographic and baseline characteristics 
may also be summarized for the PPS. 
7.2.3 
Safety Analysis Set 
The Safety Analysis Set (SAF) consists of all subjects who receives at least 1 dose of study 
treatment (ASP1128 or placebo), and will be used for safety analyses.  
For the statistical summary of the safety data, the SAF will be used. 
7.2.4 
Pharmacokinetic Analysis Set 
The Pharmacokinetic Analysis Set (PKAS) consists of the subset of SAF for which at least 
1 concentration available. Additional subjects may be excluded from the PKAS at the 
discretion of the pharmacokineticist.   
The PKAS will be used for all summaries and analyses of the pharmacokinetic data. 
7.2.5 
Pharmacodynamic Analysis Set 
The Pharmacodynamic Analysis Set (PDAS) will include the subjects from the administered 
population for whom sufficient pharmacodynamic measurements were collected The PDAS 
will be used for all analyses of pharmacodynamic data. 
The PDAS will be used for all summaries and analyses of pharmacodynamic data. 
7.2.6 
Prognostic Factor Analysis Set 
The Prognostic Factor Analysis Set (PFAS) consists of NC positive subjects, who are 
randomized to placebo group, and the NC negative subjects, who are in the observational 
cohort. 
The PFAS will be used for exploring the prognostic factors and comparison with to NC test.

7.3.1 
Subject Disposition  
The number and percentage of subjects who completed and discontinued treatment and 
reasons for treatment discontinuation will be presented for all randomized subjects and for 
subjects in the SAF by treatment group and overall. Similar tables for screening disposition, 
investigational period disposition and follow-up disposition will also be presented for all 
randomized subjects by treatment group and overall. All disposition details and dates of first 
and last evaluations for each subject will be listed.

Previous and Concomitant Medications  
All previous and concomitant medications will be presented in a listing. 
7.3.3 
Medical History  
Medical history for each subject will be presented in a listing. 
7.4 
Analysis of Efficacy  
Efficacy analysis will be conducted on the FAS and PPS. The interpretation of results from 
statistical tests will be based on the FAS. The PPS will be used to assess the robustness of the 
results from the statistical tests based on the FAS. 
7.4.1 
Analysis of Primary Endpoint  
7.4.1.1 Primary Analysis 
The primary efficacy endpoint of AKI (AKI-SCr72h) proportion will be analyzed using the 
Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test with strata to control for baseline eGFR (< 45, ≥ 45) 
on the FAS. The hypothesis testing on the primary analysis will be performed at 2-sided 0.10 
significance level to test the null hypothesis that the AKI-SCr72h proportion is equal between 
the 2 treatment arms vs the alternative hypothesis that AKI-SCr72h proportion is different 
between the ASP1128 arm vs the placebo arm. 
The Mantel-Haenszel (MH) estimate of the common risk ratio and 2-sided 90% confidence 
interval will be calculated. 
Subjects whose status of AKI-SCr72h is unknown due to, say, the missing data of SCr will be 
counted as AKI event. 
7.4.1.2 Sensitivity Analysis 
As a sensitivity analysis for the primary endpoint of AKI (AKI-SCr72h) proportion, the 
chi-square test will be performed to evaluate the appropriateness of CMH test with strata to 
control for baseline eGFR (< 45, ≥ 45). The estimate of the unadjusted risk ratio and 2-sided 
90% confidence interval will be calculated. This analysis will be conducted using the FAS. 
Additional sensitivity analyses will be performed to evaluate the impact on the analysis of 
AKI-SCr72h proportions due to any missing data/assessments and any loss to follow-up. The 
details of the additional sensitivity analyses will be described in the SAP.

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
As a supplementary analysis, the same analysis of the primary endpoint as described in 
[Section 7.4.1.1 Primary Analysis] will be conducted using PPS. 
7.4.2 
Analysis of Secondary Endpoints  
The secondary efficacy endpoints proportions (AKI-SCr7d, AKI-KDIGO72h, AKI-
KDIGO7d, MAKE30, MAKE90) will be analyzed using the stratified CMH test with strata 
to control for baseline eGFR (< 45, ≥ 45) on the FAS. The hypothesis testing will be 
performed at 2-sided 0.10 significance level. The MH estimate of the common risk ratio and 
2-sided 90% confidence intervals will be calculated. 
As sensitivity analysis, chi-square test will be performed to evaluate the appropriateness of 
CMH test with strata to control for baseline eGFR (< 45, ≥ 45). The estimates of the risk ratio 
and 2-sided 90% confidence intervals will be calculated.  
Subjects whose status of AKI and MAKE is unknown due to, say, the missing data of SCr 
will be counted as AKI/MAKE event. Additional sensitivity analysis will be performed to 
evaluate the impact on the analysis of AKI/MAKE proportions due to any missing 
data/assessments and any loss to follow-up. 
As exploratory analyses, the association between MAKE30/MAKE90 and primary, 
secondary and exploratory endpoint of AKI proportion is evaluated by a contingency table. 
7.4.3 
Subgroup Analysis 
The estimate of the unadjusted risk ratio and 2-sided 90% confidence interval for the primary 
efficacy endpoint of AKI (AKI-SCr72h) proportion and secondary endpoints will be 
calculated for the following factors; 
● Diabetics: diabetes mellitus type 1 or 2, yes vs no 
● Gender 
● Kidney failure: eGFR at presurgery baseline < 45 vs ≥ 45, < 60 vs ≥ 60 
● Surgery type: lower risk surgery (i.e., only CABG or single valve surgery, excluding 
Aortic root and ascending Aorta surgery) vs higher risk surgery (i.e., combined CABG 
and valve surgery, surgery for more than 1 cardiac valve, surgery for Aortic root, or 
ascending Aorta without circulatory arrest) 
● NC AKIRisk score at randomization > 0.7 vs > 0.3 to 0.7 (ng/ml)2/1000 
● IV radio-contrast between screening and surgery, yes vs no 
● Peripheral arterial disease, yes vs no 
● Cardiac function: ejection fraction% < 40 vs ≥ 40 
● Duration of CPB <median vs ≥ median 
In addition, the forest plot will be provided. This analysis will be conducted using the FAS. 
For the continuous type subgroup factors, including eGFR at baseline, AKIRisk score at 
randomization, cardiac function (ejection fraction %) and duration of CPB, logistic regression 
model will be fitted for each continuous type subgroup factor 1 by 1. For each logistic 
regression model, response variable is primary or secondary endpoints and explanatory

variables are treatment group, the subgroup factor and the interaction term of treatment group 
and the subgroup factor. The details of model specification will be described in the SAP. 
7.4.4 
Analysis of Exploratory Endpoints  
Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize exploratory efficacy endpoint on the FAS. 
These endpoints will be summarized graphically. 
The statistical analyses on other exploratory endpoints include: 
● CMH test on exploratory endpoints of all-cause mortality, RRT, eGFR reduction 
proportions, AKI proportions 
● Wilcoxon-test for AKI severity, AKI duration, number of hospital days, number of ICU 
days, number of hospitalization and number of readmissions 
● Kaplan-Meier estimator and log-rank test for time to AKI-SCr72h, time to AKI-SCr7d 
and time to ventilator weaning.

Analysis of Safety 
7.5.1 
Adverse Events  
AEs will be coded using MedDRA.   
TEAE is defined as an AE observed after starting administration of the study drug and by 
visit 9 (day 30). 
The number and percentage of subjects with TEAEs, treatment emergent SAEs, TEAEs 
leading to withdrawal of treatment and TEAEs related to study drug will be summarized by 
system organ class, preferred term and treatment group. The number and percentage of 
TEAEs by severity will also be summarized. All AEs will be listed. 
A study drug-related TEAE is defined as any TEAE with a causal relationship of YES by the 
investigator. 
7.5.2 
Laboratory Assessments  
For quantitative laboratory measurements descriptive statistics will be used to summarize 
results and change from baseline for subjects in the SAF by treatment group and visit.  
Shifts relative to normal ranges from baseline to each time point during treatment period in 
lab tests will also be tabulated.  Laboratory data will be displayed in listings. 
7.5.3 
Vital Signs  
Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize vital sign results and changes from baseline 
for subjects in the SAF by treatment group and visit. Vital signs data will be displayed in 
listings.

Major Protocol Deviations and Other Analyses 
7.8.1 
Major Protocol Deviations 
Major protocol deviations as defined in [Section 8.3 Major Protocol Deviations] will be 
summarized for all randomized subjects by treatment group and total as well as by site. A 
data listing will be provided by site and subject. 
The major protocol deviation criteria will be uniquely identified in the summary table and 
listing. 
7.8.2 
Analysis for Observational Cohort 
Potential risk factors (demographics, subject characteristics, biomarkers) for development of 
AKI and MAKE (listed below) will be explored:  
● AKI-SCr72h 
● AKI-SCr7d 
● MAKE30 
● MAKE90 
Risk factor for AKI and MAKE will be compared to NC test in the PFAS. Details of the 
analysis method for PFAS will be described in the SAP. 
7.9 
Interim Analysis (and Early Discontinuation of the Clinical Study) 
A formal interim analysis for futility is planned when approximately 60% of the planned 
AKI-SCr72h data have been collected in the study to evaluate whether ASP1128 has 
particularly poor efficacy compared to placebo while the study is ongoing. When conditional 
power to detect the difference between ASP1128 and placebo on the primary endpoint of 
AKI-SCr72h proportion is < 10%, that is, 2-sided p-value is > 0.518 and/or MH estimate of 
the common risk ratio (ASP1128 / placebo) is > 1, the study may stop. No interim stop for 
efficacy is planned, so the overall 2-sided 0.10 significance level is controlled.  
A Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will be instated to perform the interim analysis, which 
may recommend (nonbinding) terminating the study for unfavorable results at the interim 
analysis as described above. 
Details for the interim analysis, primary endpoint of AKI-SCr72h proportion will be 
contained in the interim analysis plan and DMC Charter. Recommendations regarding study 
conduct will be made by the DMC based on their assessment of this result. If the study is

stopped at the interim analysis, a final analysis will be conducted after the database will be 
locked.  
7.10 
Handling of Missing Data, Outliers, Visit Windows and Other 
Information 
For the primary and secondary endpoints of proportion of AKI and MAKE, subjects whose 
status of AKI and MAKE is unknown due to, say, the missing data of SCr will be counted as 
AKI/MAKE event.  
Because AKI/MAKE is a composite variable based on SCr, urine volume or eGFR, it is 
sometimes possible that part of such component data is available (e.g., SCr up to visit 4 is 
available, but that of visit 5 is missing). In such a case, the following analysis will also be 
conducted; the multiple imputation will be conducted for each missing component data firstly, 
then AKI/MAKE endpoint will be derived based on the imputed data. The derived AKI/MAKE 
endpoint will be used for the same analysis of the primary endpoint as described in 
[Section 7.4.1.1 Primary Analysis].  
See the SAP for details of the multiple imputation and the definition for windows to be used 
for analyses by visit.

OPERATIONAL CONSIDERATIONS 
8.1 
Data Collection 
The investigator or site designee will enter data collected using an electronic data capture 
system. In the interest of collecting data in the most efficient manner, the investigator or site 
designee should record data (including laboratory values, if applicable) in the eCRF within 
5 days after the subject’s visit. 
The investigator or site designee is responsible to ensure that all data in the eCRFs and 
queries are accurate and complete and that all entries are verifiable with source documents. 
These documents should be appropriately maintained by the site. 
The monitor should verify the data in the eCRFs with source documents and confirm that 
there are no inconsistencies between them. 
Laboratory tests are performed at a central laboratory unless otherwise instructed. Central 
Laboratory data will be transferred electronically to the sponsor or designee at predefined 
intervals during the study. The Central laboratory will provide the sponsor or designee with a 
complete and clean copy of the data.  
8.2 
Screen Failures 
For screen failures the demographic data, reason for failing, ICF, inclusion and exclusion 
criteria and AEs will be collected in the eCRF.

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
8.3 
Major Protocol Deviations 
A major protocol deviation is generally an unplanned excursion from the protocol that is not 
implemented or intended as a systematic change. The investigator is responsible for ensuring 
the study is conducted in accordance with the procedures and evaluations described in this 
protocol and must protect the rights, safety and welfare of subjects. The investigator should 
not implement any deviation from, or changes of, the protocol, unless it is necessary to 
eliminate an immediate hazard to study subjects.   
A protocol waiver is a documented prospective approval of a request from an investigator to 
deviate from the protocol. Protocol waivers are strictly prohibited. 
The major protocol deviation criteria are as follows: 
PD1 - Entered into the study even though they did not satisfy entry criteria,  
PD2 - Developed withdrawal criteria during the study and was not withdrawn, 
PD3 - Received wrong treatment or incorrect dose, 
PD4 - Received excluded concomitant treatment. 
When a major deviation from the protocol is identified for an individual subject, the 
investigator or designee must ensure the sponsor is notified. The sponsor will follow-up with 
the investigator, as applicable, to assess the deviation and the possible impact to the safety 
and / or efficacy of the subject to determine subject continuation in the study.  
If a major deviation impacts the safety of a subject, the investigator must contact the sponsor 
immediately.  
The investigator will also assure that deviations meeting IRB/IEC and applicable regulatory 
authorities’ criteria are documented and communicated appropriately. All documentation and 
communications to the IRB/IEC and applicable regulatory authorities will be provided to the 
sponsor and maintained within the trial master file.

END OF STUDY  
The end of the study is defined as the last visit or scheduled procedure shown in the Schedule 
of Assessments [Table 1 and Table 2] for the last study participant in the study.

Liver Safety Monitoring and Assessment 
Any subject enrolled in a clinical study with active drug therapy and reveals an increase of 
serum aminotransferases (AT) to > 3 × ULN or bilirubin > 2 × ULN should undergo detailed 
testing for liver enzymes (including at least ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase [ALP] and total 
bilirubin [TBL]). Testing should be repeated within 72 hours of notification of the test results. 
For studies for which a central laboratory is used, alerts will be generated by the central 
laboratory regarding moderate and severe liver abnormality to inform the investigator and 
study team. Subjects should be asked if they have any symptoms suggestive of hepatobiliary 
dysfunction. 
Definition of Liver Abnormalities 
Confirmed abnormalities will be characterized as moderate and severe where ULN: 
 
ALT or AST 
 
Total Bilirubin 
Moderate 
> 3 × ULN  
or 
> 2 × ULN 
Severe 
> 3 × ULN 
and 
> 2 × ULN 
The subject should be considered to have severe hepatic abnormalities for any of the 
following: 
● 
ALT or AST > 8 × ULN. 
● 
ALT or AST > 5 × ULN for more than 2 weeks.   
● 
ALT or AST > 3 × ULN and International Normalized Ratio (INR) > 1.5 (If INR testing 
is applicable/evaluated). 
● 
ALT or AST > 3 × ULN with the appearance of fatigue, nausea, vomiting, right upper 
quadrant pain or tenderness, fever, rash and/or eosinophilia (> 5%).  
The investigator may determine that abnormal liver function results, other than as described 
above, may qualify as moderate or severe abnormalities and require additional monitoring 
and follow-up. 
Follow-up Procedures 
Confirmed moderate and severe abnormalities in hepatic functions should be thoroughly 
characterized by obtaining appropriate expert consultations, detailed pertinent history, 
physical examination and laboratory tests. The site staff is to complete the liver abnormality 
case report form (LA-CRF). Subjects with confirmed abnormal liver function testing should 
be followed as described below. 
Confirmed moderately abnormal liver function tests (LFTs) should be repeated 2 to 3 times 
weekly then weekly or less if abnormalities stabilize or the study drug has been discontinued 
and the subject is asymptomatic.   
Severe hepatic liver function abnormalities as defined above, in the absence of another 
etiology, may be considered an important medical event and may be reported as a SAE.  The 
sponsor should be contacted and informed of all subjects for whom severe hepatic liver 
function abnormalities possibly attributable to study drug are observed.

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
To further assess abnormal hepatic laboratory findings, the investigator is expected to: 
● 
Obtain a more detailed history of symptoms and prior or concurrent diseases.  Symptoms 
and new-onset diseases is to be recorded as “AEs” within the eCRF. Illnesses and 
conditions such as hypotensive events, and decompensated cardiac disease that may lead 
to secondary liver abnormalities should be noted. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis is seen in 
obese hyperlipoproteinemic and/or diabetic subjects, and may be associated with 
fluctuating AT levels.  The investigator should ensure that the medical history form 
captures any illness that predates study enrollment that may be relevant in assessing 
hepatic function.  
● 
Obtain a history of concomitant drug use (including nonprescription medication, 
complementary and alternative medications), alcohol use, recreational drug use and 
special diets.  Medications, is to be entered in the eCRF.  Information on alcohol, other 
substance use and diet should be entered on the LA-CRF or an appropriate document. 
● 
Obtain a history of exposure to environmental chemical agents. 
● 
Based on the subject’s history, other testing may be appropriate including:  
o 
Acute viral hepatitis (A, B, C, D, E or other infectious agents),  
o 
Ultrasound or other imaging to assess biliary tract disease, 
o 
Other laboratory tests including INR, direct bilirubin. 
● 
Consider gastroenterology or hepatology consultations. 
● 
Submit results for any additional testing and possible etiology on the LA-CRF or an 
appropriate document. 
Study Treatment Discontinuation 
In the absence of an explanation for increased LFT’s, such as viral hepatitis, preexisting or 
acute liver disease, or exposure to other agents associated with liver injury, the subject may 
be discontinued from study treatment. The investigator may determine that it is not in the 
subject’s best interest to continue study treatment. Discontinuation of study treatment should 
be considered if: 
● 
ALT or AST > 8 × ULN. 
● 
ALT or AST > 5 × ULN for more than 2 weeks. 
● 
ALT or AST > 3 × ULN and TBL > 2 × ULN or INR > 1.5) (If INR testing is 
applicable/evaluated). 
● 
ALT or AST > 3 × ULN with the appearance of fatigue, nausea, vomiting, right upper 
quadrant pain or tenderness, fever, rash and/or eosinophilia (> 5%).  
If close monitoring for a subject with moderate or severe hepatic laboratory tests is not 
possible, study treatment should be discontinued.

The 2 “requirements” for Hy’s Law are:  
1. Evidence that a drug can cause hepatocellular-type injury, generally shown by an increase 
in transaminase elevations higher 3 × ULN (“2 × ULN elevations are too common in 
treated and untreated subjects to be discriminating”).  
2. Cases of increased bilirubin (at least 2 × ULN) with concurrent transaminase elevations at 
least 3 × ULN and no evidence of intra- or extra-hepatic bilirubin obstruction (elevated 
ALP) or Gilbert’s syndrome [Temple, 2006]. 
FDA Guidance for Industry, “Drug-Induced Liver Injury: Premarketing Clinical Evaluation,” 
2009: 
1. The drug causes hepatocellular injury, generally shown by a higher incidence of 3-fold or 
greater elevations above the ULN of ALT or AST than the (nonhepatotoxic) control drug 
or placebo. 
2. Among study subjects showing such AT elevations, often with ATs much greater than 
3 × ULN, 1 or more also show elevation of serum TBL to > 2 × ULN, without initial 
findings of cholestasis (elevated serum ALP). 
3. No other reason can be found to explain the combination of increased AT and TBL, such 
as viral hepatitis A, B, or C; preexisting or acute liver disease; or another drug capable of 
causing the observed injury.

Pharmacogenomic Analysis With Banked Sample (Optional)  
INTRODUCTION 
PGx research aims to provide information regarding how naturally occurring differences in a 
subject’s gene and/or expression of genes based on genetic variation may impact what 
treatment options are best suited for the subject. Through investigation of PGx by 
technologies such as genotyping, gene sequencing, statistical genetics and Genome-Wide 
Association Studies, the relationship between gene profiles and a drug’s kinetics, efficacy or 
toxicity may be better understood. As many diseases may be influenced by 1 or more genetic 
variations, PGx research may identify which genes are involved in determining the way a 
subject may or may not respond to a drug. 
OBJECTIVES 
The PGx research that may be conducted in the future with acquired blood samples is 
exploratory. The objective of this research will be to analyze or determine genes of relevance 
to clinical response, pharmacokinetics and/or toxicity/safety issues. 
By analyzing genetic variations, it may be possible to predict an individual subject’s response 
to treatment in terms of efficacy and/or toxicity. 
SUBJECT PARTICIPATION 
Subjects who have consented to participate in this study may participate in this PGx 
sub-study. Subjects must provide written consent prior to providing any blood samples that 
may be used at a later time for PGx analysis. 
SAMPLE COLLECTION AND STORAGE 
Subjects who consent to participate in this sub-study will provide 1 tube of whole blood of 
approximately 4 to 6 mL per Astellas’ instructions. Each sample will be identified by the 
unique subject number. Samples will be shipped to a designated banking CRO as directed by 
Astellas. 
PGx ANALYSIS 
Details on the potential PGx analysis cannot be established yet. Astellas may initiate the PGx 
analysis if evidence suggests that genetic variants may be influencing the drug’s kinetics, 
efficacy and/or safety.  
DISPOSAL OF PGx SAMPLES / DATA 
All PGx samples collected will be stored for a period of up to 15 years following study 
database hardlock. If there is no requirement for analysis, the whole blood sample will be 
destroyed after the planned storage period. The subject has the right to withdraw consent at 
any time. When a subject’s withdraw notification is received, the PGx sample will be 
destroyed. The results of any PGx analysis conducted on a sample prior to its withdrawal will  
be retained at Astellas indefinitely unless otherwise specified by local regulation.

INTRODUCTION 
The purpose of this appendix is to provide acceptable alternate methods to assess safety and 
efficacy parameters, as appropriate, in the event the clinical study is interrupted at the 
country, state, site or participant level during any crisis (e.g., natural disaster, pandemic). 
BENEFIT-RISK RATIONALE 
Maintaining the safety of clinical study participants and delivering continuity of care in the 
clinical study setting is paramount during any crisis. The site is expected to follow the 
protocol and associated Schedule of Assessments/Table 1 unless the site PI discusses the 
need with the Astellas Medical Monitor to implement the alternate measures.  
The approach outlined within this appendix defines which assessments are required to 
maintain a favorable benefit/risk to the participant, to maintain overall study integrity and to 
provide acceptable alternate methods to complete the study required assessments and 
procedures if study activities are unable to be performed as described in Section 5 due to a 
crisis. 
INFORMED CONSENT 
Participants who need to follow any or all of the alternate measures outlined in this Appendix 
will be required to provide informed consent which explicitly informs them of the nature of, 
and rationale for these changes, and gain their agreement to continue participation in the 
study prior to the implementation of any of these changes. In the event the urgency of 
implementing the alternate measures does not allow for the participant to provide written 
consent prior to implementation, the PI or designee will obtain oral agreement from the 
subject followed by written documentation as soon as is feasible. A separate addendum to the 
study informed consent will be provided to document the participant’s consent of the 
changes. 
PARTICIPANT PROCEDURES ASSESSMENT 
Sites with participants who are currently enrolled into this clinical study may consider 
implementing the alternate methods outlined below if one or more of the following 
conditions are met due to the crisis: 
● Regional or local travel has been restricted, inclusive of mandatory shelter in place 
measures, which makes participant travel to/from the study site nearly impossible 
● Site facilities have been closed for clinical study conduct  
● Site has been restricted to treating patients with conditions outside of the scope of the 
study 
● Site personnel have temporarily relocated the conduct of the study to a location that place 
a burden on the participant with respect to time and travel 
● Participant(s) have temporarily relocated from the current study site to an alternate study 
site avoid placing a burden on the participant with respect to travel

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
● Participant(s) have temporarily relocated from their home location and the new distances 
from the site would cause undue burden with respect to time and travel 
● Participant has risk factors for which traveling to the site poses an additional risk to the 
participant’s health and safety 
Adherence to the original protocol as reflected in the Schedule of Assessment Table 1 is 
expected, where plausible, in the case of a crisis. The alternate measures as noted in the table 
below are only permissible in the event of a crisis, and after discussing the need with the 
Astellas Medical Monitor and/or designee to implement the alternate measures. This is to 
allow for maintaining critical safety and efficacy assessments for patients participating in the 
study at a time of crisis. 
If one or more of the alternate measures noted below is implemented for a participant, the site 
should document in the participant’s source document the justification for implementing the 
alternate measure and the actual alternate measures that were implemented, along with the 
corresponding time point(s).

AE: adverse event; APACHE-II: acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II; DoD: day of discharge from hospital; EoS: end of study; EQ-5D-5L: 5-level European Quality of 
Life 5 Dimensions Questionnaire; ICU: intensive care unit; O: if possible; PGx: pharmacogenomics; T0: time point 0; UO: urine output. 
1. The preoperative period is defined as the part of the day of surgery before the incision. The peri-operative period is defined as the period between incision and T0 (i.e., the time 
point when the subject comes off the cardiopulmonary bypass pump [CPB]). The postoperative period is the period after T0. 
2. During surgery, the following data have to be assessed in the electronic case report form (eCRF): Procedures (coronary artery bypass graft surgery and/or valve surgery, thoracic 
aortic surgery, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, use of ventricular assist device, redo cardiac surgery) and duration of CPB; lowest intraoperative mean arterial pressure; 
perioperative fluid balance and medication (fluid intake, UO, blood products, drain output, blood loss, inotropics/vasopressors and furosemide); time of incision and closing of 
skin; T0 and perioperative complications. 
3. If the subject is discharged from hospital before day 7, visit 8 will be done on the day of discharge and no site visits are required after discharge up to day 7. If discharged after 
day 7, no additional assessments are required after day 7 up to discharge except for the recording SCr from local laboratory testing. 
4. At days 30 and 90, only body weight needs to be measured. A full physical examination is not required. 
5. Subjects will only be randomized if postoperative NephroCheck® (NC) AKIRisk® score (assessed between 2 to 22 hours after T0) is > 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000. If the AKIRisk score is 
≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000, the subject cannot be randomized and will be followed up in the observational arm, see Schedule of Assessments [Table 2].  
NC measurements at visits 3, 4 and 5 do not have to be performed at sites: urine samples at visits 3, 4 and 5 will be taken, but frozen until later assessment at central lab.  
6. Safety central laboratory tests including serum creatinine (SCr) and cystatin C. 
7. If the subject is discharged from hospital after day 7, the last result of SCr before discharge from local laboratory testing will be collected. 
8. UO assessment: from T0 (visit 2) to T72 (visit 5) when the subject is in the ICU, UO will be recorded every 12 hours and fluid intake will be recorded every 24 hours. The eCRF 
should indicate when UO data have to be recorded from the subject ICU record. During the first 72 hours following surgery (i.e., visits 3 to 5), the investigator will be asked to 
record information on AKI-UO stages 1 to 3 in the eCRF to assess their occurrence as per investigator discretion. When the subject is discharged from the ICU, but is still in the 
hospital UO and fluid intake every 24 hours will be recorded up to day 7 (visit 8). 
9. Include albuminuria dipstick.

10. The first dose of investigational product (IP)/study drug to be administered as soon as possible after the NC AKIRisk score is assessed between 2 and 22 hours after T0 is 
> 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 to allow completion of first treatment within 24 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 hours after T0, the second dose of 
IP will be administered at 24 hours after T0 and the third dose of IP will be administered at 48 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed past 8 hours after 
T0, the second dose of IP will be administered at 16 hours after the start of the first dose, and the third dose of IP will be administered at 40 hours after the start of the first dose of 
IP. Second and third dosing of the IP: a 2-hour treatment window before or after designated administration time is allowed.  
11. Additional urine samples will be taken and stored to assess various clinical and compound related biomarkers. 
12. AE will be collected from informed consent until visit 9 or until the subject is determined to be a screen failure. If the subject is discontinued from the study prior to visit 9, AEs 
will be collected until the EoS visit has been completed. After the end of all the procedures of visit 9 until visit 10, only serious AEs will be collected. 
13. Assess data on renal replacement therapy, mortality, ICU stay, total hospital stay and duration of mechanical ventilation (time ventilation weaning, i.e., time from T0 to 
extubation). 
14. APACHE-II score is recorded on visit 2 preoperatively, postoperatively and during the time of drug administration at visits 2, 3 and 4 and at day 4 (visit 5) if the subject is still in 
the ICU. Results from local laboratory testing can be used, and the result closest to the indicated time points should be recorded. 
15. Blood samples for pharmacokinetics will be collected at predose, at end of infusion and twice after study drug administration at 2 to 4 hours postdose and at 4 to 12 hours postdose 
of first administration, at end of infusion of second administration, and at predose and at end of infusion of third administration. 
16. Blood samples for gene expression measurements will be collected at predose and 2 to 4 hours postdose of first and third administrations.  
17. Visit 1 can be close to the day of surgery. If the results from the central laboratory testing of AST, ALT, total bilirubin and eGFR are not yet available at time of randomization, 
results from local laboratory can be used for verifying randomization requirements if assessed within 7 days before the day of surgery up to initiation of surgery. When the surgery 
is scheduled within 2 days after screening visit 1 and it is not feasible to perform blood and/or urine samplings at visit 1, the sampling at visit 1 can be by-passed if the results from 
local laboratory are available for verifying randomization requirements. 
18. Presurgery pregnancy test at the day of surgery will be assessed locally with urine dipstick test. 
19. When an assessment of a full physical examination is available and performed within 30 days before surgery, the assessment can be used even if it was performed prior to the 
informed consent. 
20. In the event of crisis, the alternate measures may be implemented for study procedures and assessments only for visits 9 and 10/EoS after discussion with the Astellas Medical 
Monitor and/or designee. 
21. Assess remotely. Telephone script can be available for EQ-5D-5L. 
22. Collect local data, if available. 
23. Alternative lab collection at a local clinic and results submitted to principal investigator.

ATTACHMENT 1:  SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT 1 
I.  The purpose of this amendment is: 
Substantial Changes 
1. Changes in Enrollment Numbers 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
The number of subjects to be enrolled in the observational cohort is changed to be capped at 
440. 
 
RATIONALE: 
The current number of subjects in the observational cohort compared to the other cohort is 
higher than anticipated. The change is to cap the enrollment at the previously planned 
number. A higher number is not needed for the objectives of this cohort. 
 
2. Changes in NephroCheck® (NC) Assessment 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
The time window for post-surgical (coronary artery bypass graft and/or valve surgery) NC 
assessment is extended.  
 
RATIONALE: 
Review of the emerging data from the observation cohort showed a significant number of 
subjects had NC value > 0.3 after the current assessment window (i.e., 2 to 6 hours 
post-surgery). Based on available scientific literature and after confirmation with Key 
Opinion Leaders, NC increase within 24 hours after surgery is most likely due to an insult 
incited during surgery, and NC is approved to assess the acute kidney injury (AKI) risk in 
patients who have had acute cardiovascular compromise within the prior 24 hours.  
Extending the NC assessment window will identify subjects who have moderate or high risk 
for developing AKI, and therefore potentially be eligible for study treatment randomization. 
 
3. Addition of Details for Duration of Treatment 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
Parameters related to dosing of the investigational product are updated according to the 
extension of the NC assessment window. 
 
RATIONALE: 
The change is made to accommodate the extension of the NC assessment window. It is also 
expected that the wider treatment window after the surgery is supported to be effective based 
on preclinical data.

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
4. Endpoint Clarifications 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
The timing of primary and secondary endpoint assessments is clarified. 
 
RATIONALE: 
The change is to add a clarification to ensure that those endpoints will be assessed according 
to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guideline. 
 
5. Changes in Exploratory Endpoints 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
The exploratory endpoint related to the proportion of subjects developing AKI based on 
serum creatinine criteria from the Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) guideline is 
replaced with 2 new exploratory endpoints. These endpoints are related to the proportion of 
subjects developing AKI during treatment, both based on Kidney Disease Improving Global 
Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria.  
 
RATIONALE: 
The replacement is made to add additional endpoints that are comparable to the competitor’s 
endpoint in order to compare results between studies, and also to evaluate the best timing of 
AKI assessment for later studies. 
 
6. Changes to Schedule of Central Laboratory Sampling 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
The schedule of central laboratory sampling is updated in the Schedule of 
Assessments/Evaluations and Section 5.4.2. The sampling for blood and/or urine at screening 
visit 1 may be by-passed when the surgery is scheduled within 2 days and if the results from 
local laboratory are available. 
 
RATIONALE: 
The requirement for the sampling is relaxed due to the challenge of frequent samplings 
before the surgery. The subject eligibility can be verified using local laboratory results per 
the protocol and the change makes the study more feasible without an impact on the safety or 
scientific value of the clinical study. 
 
7. Remove Analysis of Pharmacokinetic Parameters 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
Section 7.6.2, Pharmacokinetic Parameters, is removed from the protocol. 
 
RATIONALE: 
The analysis plan is changed to not calculate pharmacokinetic parameters.

Nonsubstantial Changes 
1. Update Planned Study Period   
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
The study completion date is extended from the fourth quarter of 2020 to the 1Q 2022. 
 
RATIONALE: 
To update the study period based on the actual enrollment. 
 
2. Change to Number of Study Centers 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
The number of study centers in North America is increased from 40 to 50. 
 
RATIONALE: 
To update the number of study centers based on the actual enrollment. 
 
3. Clarification to Blood Sampling Times 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
The timing of blood sampling for pharmacokinetic and genetic testing is clarified in the 
Schedule of Events. 
 
RATIONALE: 
To clarify the timing according to the change in the schedule of study drug administration. 
 
4. Clarification to Visit Windows for the Observational Cohort 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
Visit windows for the follow-up period for the observational cohort are updated to provide 
clarification. 
 
RATIONALE: 
To provide clarifications to the protocol and to ensure complete understanding of study 
procedures. 
 
5. Details for Adverse Events (AEs) Collection and Follow-up in Observational Cohort 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
Collection of AEs related to major adverse kidney events and follow-up of the events in the 
observational cohort is clarified.

procedures. 
 
6. Add Clinical Study Continuity Plan 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE: 
Clinical study continuity procedures are added in Section 12.8. 
 
RATIONALE: 
To outline procedures to be prioritized and alternate methods of assessing safety and efficacy 
in the event the study is interrupted. 
 
7. Minor Administrative-type Changes 
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE:  
Include minor administrative-type changes (e.g., typos, format, numbering and consistency 
throughout the protocol) and update list of abbreviations.

IV Synopsis, Study Design Overview 
WAS: 
Visit 2/Day of Surgery 
Four hours (with a range of 2 hours before and after) postsurgery (i.e., 2 to 6 hours after T0), 
a urine sample will be collected and the concentration of tissue inhibitor of 
metalloproteinase-2 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-7 will be assessed utilizing 
the NC device as per the package insert instructions. The urine sample should be fresh (i.e., 
not from accumulated urine in the bag, so the bag should be emptied before the sample is 
taken); it can be obtained in the operating room/theater, recovery room or in the intensive 
care unit (ICU), as long as it is within the range of 2 to 6 hours post T0. The device will 
calculate the AKIRisk score. If NC assessment is positive (AKIRisk score > 0.3 
ng/mL2/1000), the subject will be randomized and will start treatment per the randomization 
schedule. 
If the result is of the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000, the NC assessment should be 
redone once only if within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0 (i.e., the urine sample for NC 
should be taken within the 2 to 6 hours post T0 range). If the NC assessment is negative 
(AKIRisk score ≤ 0.3 [at 1st and 2nd measurement, if applicable]), the subject cannot be 
randomized and will be followed up in the observational cohort (see below). 
Randomized subjects will receive 3 subsequent treatments with ASP1128 or matching 
placebo, which will be administered intravenously through a peripheral/central catheter. The 
first administration of study drug will occur after randomization, as soon as possible after the 
positive NC. Administration should be completed within 8 hours after T0.  
In case of reoperation on the day of surgery, the same time range for NC and drug 
administration applies in relation to T0. A reoperation is no reason for not enrolling a subject 
as long as the NC can be performed at the described time points. 
Visits 3, 4 and 5 
The second administration of study drug will occur the day after surgery: 24 hours after T0 
(visit 3). The third administration will occur at 48 hours after T0 (visit 4). A margin of 2 
hours before and after the designated time is allowed. Applicable assessments will be done as 
per the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] up to 72 hours after T0 (visit 5) to assess the study 
endpoints, including AKI (based on SCr and UO). When the subject is in the ICU, UO per 
12 hours and total fluid intake per 24 hours (including blood products and intravenous fluid 
input) must be recorded. When the subjects are in the ICU, the time to ventilator weaning 
will be recorded. 
Observational Cohort 
If at randomization NC is negative (AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 at t = 4 hours 
[range 2 to 6 hours; at 1st and 2nd measurement, if applicable]), the subject cannot be 
randomized. These subjects will be included in the observational cohort. The rationale for 
following the randomization failures is to further evaluate the AKIRisk score, as well as other 
risk factors (including clinical characteristics and biomarkers) for AKI and MAKE.

If the result is of the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000, the NC assessment should be 
redone once only if within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0 (i.e., the urine sample for NC 
should be taken within the 2 to 6 hours post T0 range).  
If the NC assessment is negative (AKIRisk score ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 [at 1st first and 2nd  
measurement second measurements, if applicable]),]) or not assessable within the 2- to 6-
hour window after T0, NC assessment may be repeated for up to 4 times within 22 
hours after T0. Urine sampling should be done at intervals of at least 1 hour. If all the 
NC assessments are negative up to 22 hours after T0, the subject cannot be randomized 
and will be followed up in the observational cohort (see below). 
Randomized subjects will receive 3 subsequent treatments with ASP1128 or matching 
placebo, which will be administered intravenously through a peripheral/central catheter. The 
first administration of study drug will occur after randomization, as soon as possible after the 
positive NC. Administration If NC is positive in the initial 2 to 6 hours post T0 period, the 
first dose of IP should be completed within 8 hours after T0. If NC is positive in any of the 
additional NC measurements within 22 hours after T0, the first dose should be 
completed as soon as possible but within 24 hours after T0.  
In case of reoperation on the day of surgery, the same time range for NC and drug 
administration applies in relation to T0 (i.e., NC between 2 and 22 hours and first 
investigational drug administration within 24 hours). A reoperation is no reason for not 
enrolling a subject as long as the NC can be performed at the described time points.

after T0, the second dose of IP will occur the day after surgery:  be administered at 24 
hours after T0 (visit 3). The and the third administration dose of IP will occur be at 48 hours

assessments will be done as per the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] up to 72 hours after 
T0 (visit 5) to assess the study endpoints, including AKI (based on SCr and UO). When the 
subject is in the ICU, UO per 12 hours and total fluid intake per 24 hours (including blood 
products and intravenous fluid input) must be recorded. When the subjects are in the ICU, the 
time to ventilator weaning will be recorded. 
Observational Cohort 
If at randomization NC is negative (AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 at t = 4 hours 
[range 2 to 6 hours; at 1st and 2nd measurement, if applicable]) at all assessments between 2 
and 22 hours after T0, the subject cannot be randomized. These subjects will be included in 
the observational cohort. The rationale for following the randomization failures subjects in 
the observational cohort is to further evaluate the AKIRisk score, as well as other risk 
factors (including clinical characteristics and biomarkers) for AKI and MAKE. The 
observational cohort will enroll a maximum of 440 subjects.   
 
IV Synopsis, Duration of Treatment 
WAS: 
ASP1128/placebo will be administered on day 1 (day of surgery; within 8 hours after T0), 
day 2 (24 hours after T0) and day 3 (48 hours after T0). 
 
IS AMENDED TO: 
ASP1128/placebo will be administered on day 1 (day as soon as possible after the NC 
AKIRisk score is assessed between 2 and 22 hours after T0 is > 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000. If NC 
is positive in the initial 2 to 6 hours post T0 period, the first dose of surgery; IP should be 
completed within 8 hours after T0), day 2 (. If NC is positive in any of the additional NC 
measurements within 22 hours after T0, the first dose should be completed as soon as 
possible but within 24 hours after T0).  
If the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 hours after T0, the second 
dose of IP will be at 24 hours after T0 and day 3 ( the third dose of IP will be at 48 hours 
after T0).  
If the first dose of IP administration is completed past 8 hours after T0, the second dose 
of IP will be at 16 hours after the start of the first dose, and the third dose of IP will be 
at 40 hours after the start of the first dose IP. 
For the second and third dose, a 2-hour treatment window before or after designated 
administration time is allowed.

third dose of IP will be administered at 40 hours after the start of the first dose of IP. Second and third dosing of the IP: a 2-hour treatment window before or after 
designated administration time is allowed. 
15. Blood samples for pharmacokinetics will be collected at predose, at end of infusion and twice after study drug administration at 2 to 4 hours postdose and at 4 to 12 hours postdose 
on visit 2 of first administration, at end of infusion on visit 3 of second administration, and at predose and at end of infusion on visit 4.of third administration. 
16. Blood samples for gene expression measurements will be collected at predose and 2 to 4 hours after study drug administration on visits 2 and 4.postdose of first and third 
administrations.  
17. Visit 1 can be close to the day of surgery. If the results from the central laboratory testing of AST, ALT, total bilirubin and eGFR are not yet available at time of randomization, 
results from local laboratory can be used for verifying randomization requirements if assessed within 7 days before the day of surgery up to initiation of surgery. When the 
surgery is scheduled within 2 days after screening visit 1 and it is not feasible to perform blood and/or urine samplings at visit 1, the sampling at visit 1 can be by-passed 
if the results from local laboratory are available for verifying randomization requirements.

The preoperative period is defined as the part of the day of surgery before the incision. The peri-operative period is defined as the period between incision and T0 (i.e., the time 
point when the subject comes off the cardiopulmonary bypass pump [CPB]). The postoperative period is the period after T0. 
2.

2 Study Objective(s), Design and Endpoints 
2.2.1 Study Design 
WAS: 
Visit 2/Day of Surgery 
Four hours (with a range of 2 hours before and after) postsurgery (i.e., 2 to 6 hours after T0) a 
urine sample will be collected and the concentration of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 
(TIMP2) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-7 (IGFBP7) will be assessed utilizing 
the NC device as per the package insert instructions. The urine sample should be fresh (i.e., 
not from accumulated urine in the bag so the bag should be emptied before the sample is 
taken); it can be obtained in the operating room/theater, recovery room or in the intensive 
care unit (ICU), as long as it is within the range of 2 to 6 hours post T0. For urine [TIMP-2] * 
[IGFBP7], a cutoff of 0.3 yielded good sensitivity and specificity at 4 hours after CPB 
[Meersch et al, 2014] and constituted an increased risk for developing AKI [Meersch et al, 
2017]. The NC device will calculate the AKIRisk score. If NC is positive, i.e., the result of 
the AKIRisk score is > 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000, the subject will be randomized and start treatment 
as per randomization schedule. 
If the result of the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000 the NC assessment should be redone 
once only if within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0 (i.e., the urine sample for NC should be 
taken within the 2 to 6 hours post T0 range).  
If the NC is negative, i.e., the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000 (at 1st and 2nd 
measurement, if applicable) ,  the subject cannot be randomized and will be followed up in 
the observational cohort (see below). 
Randomized subjects will receive 3 subsequent treatments with ASP1128 or matching 
placebo, which will be applied intravenously through a peripheral/central catheter. The first 
administration of study drug will occur after randomization, as soon as possible after the 
positive NC. Administration should be completed within 8 hours after T0. The limit of 
8 hours is set to provide the best window of induction of ASP1128 effect and development of 
tubular cell damage and AKI.   
In case of reoperation on the day of surgery (e.g., for immediate surgical complications like 
ongoing hemorrhage), the same time range for NC and drug administration applies in relation 
to T0 (i.e., end of CPB of initial operation). A reoperation is no reason for not enrolling a 
subject as long as the NC can be performed at the described time points. If for any reason the 
AKIRisk score cannot be assessed with the 2 to 6 hours from T0 the subject cannot be 
randomized and will be a screen failure. If the subject is randomized, but for any reason the 
first administration of the study drug cannot be done within 8 hours after T0, the subject 
should not be withdrawn from the study as an intention-to-treat principle. The indication of 
reoperation will be recorded as an adverse event (AE) in the electronic case report form 
(eCRF) as well as the (reason for) missed drug administration. 
The second administration of study drug will occur the day after surgery: 24 hours after T0 
(visit 3). The third administration will be given at 48 hours after T0 (visit 4). Applicable

assessments will occur as per the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1] up to 72 hours after T0 
(visit 5) to assess the study endpoints, including AKI (based on SCr and UO). When the 
subject is in the ICU, UO per 12 hours and total fluid intake per 24 hours (including blood 
products and intravenous fluid input) must be recorded. 
In case of reoperation, or any other event that interferes with study drug administration, at the 
time of second or third administration of study drug, the subject will not be discontinued. A 
margin of 2 hours before and after the designated time is allowed. The indication of 
reoperation will be recorded as an AE in the eCRF, as well as the (reason for) missed drug 
administration or changed drug administration time if applicable. 
Observational Cohort 
If at randomization NC is negative (AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 at t = 4 hours 
[range 2 to 6 hours; at 1st and 2nd measurement, if applicable]), the subject cannot be 
randomized. These subjects will be included in the observational cohort. The aim of 
following up the randomization failures is to further evaluate the AKIRisk score, as well as 
other risk factors (including clinical characteristics and biomarkers) for AKI and MAKE. 
Clinical endpoints will be investigated in the subgroups defined by AKIRisk score at 
randomization and other baseline risk factors, in the population of the NC positive subjects, 
who are randomized to the active or the placebo group, and the NC negative subjects, who 
are in the observational cohort. The subjects in this cohort can be discharged at the discretion 
of the investigator and will be followed up after surgery for assessment of AKI up to 7 days 
(acute kidney injury based on serum creatinine KDIGO criteria [AKI-SCr] using SCr values 
from local laboratory testing and 24-hour UO to assess stage 3 AKI-UO) and for assessment 
of MAKE event at day 30 and day 90. Hospital and ICU stay will also be recorded. AEs and 
medication use will be recorded until 24 hours after T0. Urine samples will be collected for 
NephroCheck® (NC) and biomarker assessments. If available, local laboratory test results 
and 24-hour UO data will be collected from medical records. No additional blood samples 
will be taken for study purposes after visit 2. See Schedule of Assessments [Table 2].

Visit 2/Day of Surgery 
Four hours (with a range of 2 hours before and after) postsurgery (i.e., 2 to 6 hours after T0) a 
urine sample will be collected and the concentration of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 
(TIMP2) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-7 (IGFBP7) will be assessed utilizing 
the NC device as per the package insert instructions. The urine sample should be fresh (i.e.,

within 8 hours after T0 as per randomization schedule. 
If the first result of the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000 the NC assessment should be 
redone once only if within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0 (i.e., the urine sample for NC 
should be taken within the 2 to 6 hours post T0 range).  
If the NC is negative, i.e., the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000 (at 1st first and 2nd 
second measurement, if applicable) or not assessable within the 2- to 6-hour window after 
T0, NC assessment may be repeated up to 4 times until 22 hours after T0. Urine 
sampling should be done at intervals of at least 1 hour. If all the NC assessments are 
negative up to 22 hours after T0, the subject cannot be randomized and will be followed up 
in the observational cohort (see below). 
Randomized subjects will receive 3 subsequent treatments with ASP1128 or matching 
placebo, which will be applied intravenously through a peripheral/central catheter. The first 
administration of study drug will occur after randomization, as soon as possible after the 
positive NC. Administration If NC is positive in the initial 2 to 6 hours post T0 period, the 
first dose of IP should be completed within 8 hours after T0. The limit of 8 hours is set to 
provide the best window of induction of ASP1128 effect and development of tubular cell 
damage and AKI. If NC is positive in any of the additional NC measurements within 22 
hours after T0, the first dose should be completed as soon as possible but within 
24 hours after T0. 
In case of reoperation on the day of surgery (e.g., for immediate surgical complications like 
ongoing hemorrhage), the same time range for NC and drug administration applies in relation 
to T0 (i.e., end of CPB of initial operation NC between 2 and 22 hours and first 
investigational drug administration within 24 hours). A reoperation is no reason for not 
enrolling a subject as long as the NC can be performed at the described time points. If for any 
reason the AKIRisk score cannot be assessed with within the 2 to 6 22 hours from T0 the 
subject cannot be randomized and will be a screen failure. If the subject is randomized, but 
for any reason the first administration of the study drug cannot be done within 8 24 hours 
after T0, the subject should not be withdrawn from the study as an intention-to-treat 
principle. The indication of reoperation will be recorded as an adverse event (AE) in the 
electronic case report form (eCRF) as well as the (reason for) missed drug administration. 
The second administration of study drug will occur the day after surgery: 24 hours after T0 
(visit 3). The third administration will be given at 48 hours after T0 (visit 4). Applicable If 
the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 hours after T0, the second dose 
of IP will be administered at 24 hours after T0 and the third dose of IP will be 
administered at 48 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed 
past 8 hours after T0, the second dose of IP will be administered at 16 hours after the 
start of the first dose, and the third dose of IP will be administered at 40 hours after the 
start of the first dose of IP. Applicable assessments will occur as per the Schedule of 
Assessments [Table 1] up to 72 hours after T0 (visit 5) to assess the study endpoints, 
including AKI (based on SCr and UO). When the subject is in the ICU, UO per 12 hours and

Observational Cohort 
If at randomization NC is negative (AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 at t = 4 hours 
[range all assessments between 2 to 6 hours; at 1st and 2nd measurement, if applicable]), 22 
hours after T0), the subject cannot be randomized. These subjects will be included in the 
observational cohort.  The observational cohort will enroll a maximum of 440 subjects. 
The aim of following up the randomization failures subjects in the observational cohort is 
to further evaluate the AKIRisk score, as well as other risk factors (including clinical 
characteristics and biomarkers) for AKI and MAKE. Clinical endpoints will be investigated 
in the subgroups defined by AKIRisk score at randomization and other baseline risk factors, 
in the population of the NC positive subjects, who are randomized to the active or the 
placebo group, and the NC negative subjects, who are in the observational cohort. The 
subjects in this cohort can be discharged at the discretion of the investigator and will be 
followed up after surgery for assessment of AKI up to 7 days (acute kidney injury based on 
serum creatinine KDIGO criteria [AKI-SCr] using SCr values from local laboratory testing

5 Treatments and Evaluation 
5.1.1.2 Subjects in the Observational Cohort 
WAS: 
If the NC is negative, i.e., the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 at t = 4 hours (range 2 to 6 hours; at 1st 
and 2nd measurement, if applicable), the subject cannot be randomized. These subjects will be 
included in the observational cohort and receive no study drug administration. 
 
IS AMENDED TO: 
If the NC is negative, i.e., the AKIRisk score is ≤ 0.3 at t = 4  (ng/mL)2/1000 at all 
assessments between 2 and 22 hours (range 2 to 6 hours; at 1st and 2nd measurement, if 
applicable), after T0, the subject cannot be randomized. These subjects will be included in 
the observational cohort and receive no study drug administration. 
 
5 Treatments and Evaluation 
5.1.3.1 Prohibited and Restricted Treatment 
WAS: 
Following surgery up to 72 hours postsurgery the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory

5.2.3 Diagnosis of the Target Disease, Severity and Duration of Disease 
WAS: 
A risk of developing AKI following surgery will be assessed at screening (visit 1) according 
to inclusion criteria #5 based on AKI risk factors. Further risk assessment will be done after 
the surgery at visit 2: 4 hours (with a range of 2 hours before and after) postsurgery (i.e., 2 to 
6 hours after T0) urine will be collected for an examination by the NC to calculate the 
AKIRisk score, which indicates the risk of tubular damage that could lead to AKI. If the 
AKIRisk score is > 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000, the subject will be randomized and start treatment as 
per randomization schedule. If the AKIRisk score is 0.3 or less, the NC assessment should be 
redone once only if within the 2- to 6-hour window after T0. If the NC is negative, i.e., the 
AKIRisk score is 0.3 or less (at 1st and 2nd measurement, if applicable) the subject cannot be 
randomized and will be followed up in the observational cohort.

per the package insert instructions of the NC device. The device automatically multiplies the 
concentrations of the 2 biomarkers together and divides this product by 1,000 to report a 
single numeric test result with units of (ng/mL)2/1,000 (the units for all TIMP2•IGFBP7 
values in this protocol) referred to as the AKIRisk score. The urine sample should be fresh 
(i.e., not from accumulated urine in the bag), so the bag should be emptied before the sample 
is taken; on the day of surgery, it can be obtained in the operating room/theater, recovery 
room or in the ICU, as long as it is within the range or 2 to 6 hours post T0. A second urine 
sample for the assessment of the AKIRisk score can be collected within the 2 to 6 hour post 
T0 range and should be done if the first result was 0.3 or less [see Section 2.2.1]. The NC 
measurements at visits 3, 4 and 5 do not have to be performed at sites. Urine samples at visits

INTRODUCTION 
The purpose of this appendix is to provide acceptable alternate methods to assess safety 
and efficacy parameters, as appropriate, in the event the clinical study is interrupted at 
the country, state, site or participant level during any crisis (e.g., natural disaster, 
pandemic).

Version 2.0 Incorporating Substantial Amendment 1 
 
Maintaining the safety of clinical study participants and delivering continuity of care in 
the clinical study setting is paramount during any crisis. The site is expected to follow 
the protocol and associated Schedule of Assessments/Table 1 unless the site principal 
investigator discusses the need with the Astellas Medical Monitor to implement the 
alternate measures.  
The approach outlined within this appendix defines which assessments are required to 
maintain a favorable benefit/risk to the participant, to maintain overall study integrity 
and to provide acceptable alternate methods to complete the study required assessments 
and procedures if study activities are unable to be performed as described in Section 5 
due to a crisis. 
INFORMED CONSENT 
Participants who need to follow any or all of the alternate measures outlined in this 
Appendix will be required to provide informed consent which explicitly informs them of 
the nature of, and rationale for these changes, and gain their agreement to continue 
participation in the study prior to the implementation of any of these changes. In the 
event the urgency of implementing the alternate measures does not allow for the 
participant to provide written consent prior to implementation, the principal 
investigator or designee will obtain oral agreement from the subject followed by written 
documentation as soon as is feasible. A separate addendum to the study informed 
consent will be provided to document the participant’s consent of the changes. 
PARTICIPANT PROCEDURES ASSESSMENT 
Sites with participants who are currently enrolled into this clinical study may consider 
implementing the alternate methods outlined below if one or more of the following 
conditions are met due to the crisis: 
• Regional or local travel has been restricted, inclusive of mandatory shelter in place 
measures, which makes participant travel to/from the study site nearly impossible 
• Site facilities have been closed for clinical study conduct  
• Site has been restricted to treating patients with conditions outside of the scope of 
the study 
• Site personnel have temporarily relocated the conduct of the study to a location that 
place a burden on the participant with respect to time and travel 
• Participant(s) have temporarily relocated from the current study site to an alternate 
study site avoid placing a burden on the participant with respect to travel 
• Participant(s) have temporarily relocated from their home location and the new 
distances from the site would cause undue burden with respect to time and travel 
• Participant has risk factors for which traveling to the site poses an additional risk to 
the participant’s health and safety 
Adherence to the original protocol as reflected in the Schedule of Assessment Table 1 is 
expected, where plausible, in the case of a crisis. The alternate measures as noted in the 
table below are only permissible in the event of a crisis, and after discussing the need

with the Astellas Medical Monitor and/or designee to implement the alternate measures. 
This is to allow for maintaining critical safety and efficacy assessments for patients 
participating in the study at a time of crisis. 
If one or more of the alternate measures noted below is implemented for a participant, 
the site should document in the participant’s source document the justification for 
implementing the alternate measure and the actual alternate measures that were 
implemented, along with the corresponding time point(s).

Quality of Life 5 Dimensions Questionnaire; ICU: intensive care unit; O: if possible; PGx: pharmacogenomics; T0: time point 0; UO: urine output. 
1. The preoperative period is defined as the part of the day of surgery before the incision. The peri-operative period is defined as the period between incision and T0 (i.e., 
the time point when the subject comes off the cardiopulmonary bypass pump [CPB]). The postoperative period is the period after T0. 
2. During surgery, the following data have to be assessed in the electronic case report form (eCRF): Procedures (coronary artery bypass graft surgery and/or valve 
surgery, thoracic aortic surgery, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, use of ventricular assist device, redo cardiac surgery) and duration of CPB; lowest 
intraoperative mean arterial pressure; perioperative fluid balance and medication (fluid intake, UO, blood products, drain output, blood loss, inotropics/vasopressors 
and furosemide); time of incision and closing of skin; T0 and perioperative complications. 
3. If the subject is discharged from hospital before day 7, visit 8 will be done on the day of discharge and no site visits are required after discharge up to day 7. If 
discharged after day 7, no additional assessments are required after day 7 up to discharge except for the recording SCr from local laboratory testing. 
4. At days 30 and 90, only body weight needs to be measured. A full physical examination is not required. 
5. Subjects will only be randomized if postoperative NephroCheck® (NC) AKIRisk® score (assessed between 2 to 22 hours after T0) is > 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000. If the AKIRisk 
score is ≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000, the subject cannot be randomized and will be followed up in the observational arm, see Schedule of Assessments [Table 2].  
NC measurements at visits 3, 4 and 5 do not have to be performed at sites: urine samples at visits 3, 4 and 5 will be taken, but frozen until later assessment at central lab.  
6. Safety central laboratory tests including serum creatinine (SCr) and cystatin C. 
7. If the subject is discharged from hospital after day 7, the last result of SCr before discharge from local laboratory testing will be collected. 
8. UO assessment: from T0 (visit 2) to T72 (visit 5) when the subject is in the ICU, UO will be recorded every 12 hours and fluid intake will be recorded every 24 hours. 
The eCRF should indicate when UO data have to be recorded from the subject ICU record. During the first 72 hours following surgery (i.e., visits 3 to 5), the 
investigator will be asked to record information on AKI-UO stages 1 to 3 in the eCRF to assess their occurrence as per investigator discretion. When the subject is 
discharged from the ICU, but is still in the hospital UO and fluid intake every 24 hours will be recorded up to day 7 (visit 8). 
9. Include albuminuria dipstick. 
10. The first dose of investigational product (IP)/study drug to be administered as soon as possible after the NC AKIRisk score is assessed between 2 and 22 hours after T0 is 
> 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 to allow completion of first treatment within 24 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 hours after T0, the second 
dose of IP will be administered at 24 hours after T0 and the third dose of IP will be administered at 48 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed 
past 8 hours after T0, the second dose of IP will be administered at 16 hours after the start of the first dose, and the third dose of IP will be administered at 40 hours 
after the start of the first dose of IP. Second and third dosing of the IP: a 2-hour treatment window before or after designated administration time is allowed. 
11. Additional urine samples will be taken and stored to assess various clinical and compound related biomarkers. 
12. AE will be collected from informed consent until visit 9 or until the subject is determined to be a screen failure. If the subject is discontinued from the study prior to visit 
9, AEs will be collected until the EoS visit has been completed. After the end of all the procedures of visit 9 until visit 10, only serious AEs will be collected.

13. Assess data on renal replacement therapy, mortality, ICU stay, total hospital stay and duration of mechanical ventilation (time ventilation weaning, i.e., time from T0 to 
extubation). 
14. APACHE-II score is recorded on visit 2 preoperatively, postoperatively and during the time of drug administration at visits 2, 3 and 4 and at day 4 (visit 5) if the subject 
is still in the ICU. Results from local laboratory testing can be used, and the result closest to the indicated time points should be recorded. 
15. Blood samples for pharmacokinetics will be collected at predose, at end of infusion and twice after study drug administration at 2 to 4 hours postdose and at 4 to 
12 hours postdose of first administration, at end of infusion of second administration, and at predose and at end of infusion of third administration. 
16. Blood samples for gene expression measurements will be collected at predose and 2 to 4 hours postdose of first and third administrations.  
17. Visit 1 can be close to the day of surgery. If the results from the central laboratory testing of AST, ALT, total bilirubin and eGFR are not yet available at time of 
randomization, results from local laboratory can be used for verifying randomization requirements if assessed within 7 days before the day of surgery up to initiation of 
surgery. When the surgery is scheduled within 2 days after screening visit 1 and it is not feasible to perform blood and/or urine samplings at visit 1, the sampling at visit 
1 can be by-passed if the results from local laboratory are available for verifying randomization requirements. 
18. Presurgery pregnancy test at the day of surgery will be assessed locally with urine dipstick test. 
19. When an assessment of a full physical examination is available and performed within 30 days before surgery, the assessment can be used even if it was performed prior 
to the informed consent. 
20. In the event of crisis, the alternate measures may be implemented for study procedures and assessments only for visits 9 and 10/EoS after discussion with the Astellas 
Medical Monitor and/or designee. 
21. Assess remotely. Telephone script can be available for EQ-5D-5L. 
22. Collect local data, if available. 
23. Alternative lab collection at a local clinic and results submitted to principal investigator.

DATA COLLECTION REQUIREMENTS 
Additional data may be collected in order to indicate how participation in the study 
may have been affected by a crisis and to accommodate data collection resulting from 
alternate measures implemented to manage the conduct of the study and participant 
safety.  
• Critical assessments for safety and efficacy based on study endpoints to be 
identified as missing or altered (performed virtually, at alternative locations, out 
of window, or other modifications) due to the crisis.

AE: adverse event; APACHE-II: acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II; DoD: day of discharge from hospital; EoS: end of study; EQ-5D-5L: 5-level European Quality of 
Life 5 Dimensions Questionnaire; ICU: intensive care unit; O: if possible; PGx: pharmacogenomics; T0: time point 0; UO: urine output. 
1. The preoperative period is defined as the part of the day of surgery before the incision. The peri-operative period is defined as the period between incision and T0 (i.e., the time 
point when the subject comes off the cardiopulmonary bypass pump [CPB]). The postoperative period is the period after T0. 
2. During surgery, the following data have to be assessed in the electronic case report form (eCRF): Procedures (coronary artery bypass graft surgery and/or valve surgery, thoracic 
aortic surgery, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, use of ventricular assist device, redo cardiac surgery) and duration of CPB; lowest intraoperative mean arterial pressure; 
perioperative fluid balance and medication (fluid intake, UO, blood products, drain output, blood loss, inotropics/vasopressors and furosemide); time of incision and closing of 
skin; T0 and perioperative complications. 
3. If the subject is discharged from hospital before day 7, visit 8 will be done on the day of discharge and no site visits are required after discharge up to day 7. If discharged after 
day 7, no additional assessments are required after day 7 up to discharge except for the recording serum creatinine (SCr) from local laboratory testing. 
4. At days 30 and 90, only body weight needs to be measured. A full physical examination is not required. 
5. Subjects will only be randomized if postoperative NephroCheck® (NC) AKIRisk® score (assessed between 2 to 22 hours after T0) is > 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000. If the AKIRisk score is 
≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000, the subject cannot be randomized and will be followed up in the observational arm, see Schedule of Assessments [Table 2].  
NC measurements at visits 3, 4 and 5 do not have to be performed at sites: urine samples at visits 3, 4 and 5 will be taken, but frozen until later assessment at central lab.  
6. Safety central laboratory tests including serum creatinine (SCr) and cystatin C. 
7. If the subject is discharged from hospital after day 7, the last result of SCr before discharge from local laboratory testing will be collected. 
8. UO assessment: from T0 (visit 2) to T72 (visit 5) when the subject is in the ICU, UO will be recorded every 12 hours and fluid intake will be recorded every 24 hours. The eCRF 
should indicate when UO data have to be recorded from the subject ICU record. During the first 72 hours following surgery (i.e., visits 3 to 5), the investigator will be asked to 
record information on AKI-UO stages 1 to 3 in the eCRF to assess their occurrence as per investigator discretion. When the subject is discharged from the ICU, but is still in the 
hospital UO and fluid intake every 24 hours will be recorded up to day 7 (visit 8). 
9. Include albuminuria dipstick. 
10. The first dose of investigational product (IP)/study drug to be administered as soon as possible after the NC AKIRisk score is assessed between 2 and 22 hours after T0 is > 0.3 
(ng/mL)2/1000 to allow completion of first treatment within 24 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed within 8 hours after T0, the second dose of IP will 
be administered at 24 hours after T0 and the third dose of IP will be administered at 48 hours after T0. If the first dose of IP administration is completed past 8 hours after T0, the 
second dose of IP will be administered at 16 hours after the start of the first dose, and the third dose of IP will be administered at 40 hours after the start of the first dose of IP. 
Second and third dosing of the IP: a 2-hour treatment window before or after designated administration time is allowed. 
11. Additional urine samples will be taken and stored to assess various clinical and compound related biomarkers. 
12. AE will be collected from informed consent until visit 9 or until the subject is determined to be a screen failure. If the subject is discontinued from the study prior to visit 9, AEs

14. APACHE-II score is recorded on visit 2 preoperatively, postoperatively and during the time of drug administration at visits 2, 3 and 4 and at day 4 (visit 5) if the subject is still in 
the ICU. Results from local laboratory testing can be used, and the result closest to the indicated time points should be recorded. 
15. Blood samples for pharmacokinetics will be collected at predose, at end of infusion and twice after study drug administration at 2 to 4 hours postdose and at 4 to 12 hours postdose 
of first administration, at end of infusion of second administration, and at predose and at end of infusion of third administration. 
16. Blood samples for gene expression measurements will be collected at predose and 2 to 4 hours postdose of first and third administrations.  
17. Visit 1 can be close to the day of surgery. If the results from the central laboratory testing of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin and 
estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) are not yet available at time of randomization, results from local laboratory can be used for verifying randomization requirements if 
assessed within 7 days before the day of surgery up to initiation of surgery. When the surgery is scheduled within 2 days after screening visit 1 and it is not feasible to perform 
blood and/or urine samplings at visit 1, the sampling at visit 1 can be by-passed if the results from local laboratory are available for verifying randomization requirements.  
18. Presurgery pregnancy test at the day of surgery will be assessed locally with urine dipstick test. 
19. When an assessment of a full physical examination is available and performed within 30 days before surgery, the assessment can be used even if it was performed prior to the 
informed consent.

1. The preoperative period is defined as the part of the day of surgery before the incision. The peri-operative period is defined as the period between incision and T0 (i.e., the time 
point when the subject comes off the cardiopulmonary bypass pump [CPB]). The postoperative period is the period after T0. 
2. During surgery, the following data have to be assessed in the electronic case report form (eCRF): Procedures (coronary artery bypass graft surgery and/or valve surgery, thoracic 
aortic surgery, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, use of ventricular assist device, redo cardiac surgery) and duration of CPB; lowest intraoperative mean arterial pressure; 
perioperative fluid balance and medication (fluid intake, UO, blood products, drain output, blood loss, inotropics/vasopressors and furosemide); time of incision and closing of 
skin; T0 and perioperative complications. 
3. Central laboratory tests 
4. Additional urine samples will be taken and stored to assess various clinical and compound related biomarkers. 
5. APACHE-II score is recorded on visit 2 preoperatively, postoperatively. Results from local laboratory testing can be used, and the result closest to the indicated time points should 
be recorded. 
6. Visit 1 can be close to the day of surgery. If the results from the central laboratory testing of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin and 
eGFR are not yet available at time of randomization, results from local laboratory can be used for verifying randomization requirements if assessed within 7 days before the day of 
surgery up to initiation of surgery. When the surgery is scheduled within 2 days after screening visit 1 and it is not feasible to perform blood and/or urine samplings at visit 1, the 
sampling at visit 1 can be by-passed if the results from local laboratory are available for verifying randomization requirements. 
7. Presurgery pregnancy test at the day of surgery will be assessed locally with urine dipstick test. 
8. AEs and medication use will be collected until 24 hours after T0. However, AEs related to MAKE parameters will be collected until the EoS visit. AEs will be followed up until 
resolved including medication use for the AE. 
9. Local laboratory test results will be collected from medical records, including serum creatinine and serum cystatin C (if available). 
10. 24-hour urinary output data will be collected from medical records (if available). 
11. Subjects will only be randomized if postoperative NephroCheck® (NC) AKIRisk® score (assessed between 2 to 22 hours after T0) is > 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000. If the AKIRisk score is 
≤ 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000, the subject cannot be randomized and will be followed up in the observational arm. 
12. Urine sampling only for NC and biomarker assessments if subjects are still in the intensive care unit and urine can be sampled from the catheter. Urine samples will be taken, but 
frozen until later assessment at the central laboratory. 
13. Visit 9 and 10 may be conducted by phone if the subject is unable to visit the site and will require contact for MAKE parameters collection. 
14. When an assessment of a full physical examination is available and performed within 30 days before surgery, the assessment can be used even if it was performed prior to the 
informed consent.

acute kidney injury (AKI) following CABG and/or valve surgery  
3.1.2 
Secondary Objectives  
● 
To investigate the safety and tolerability of postsurgery treatment with ASP1128 in 
subjects at risk for AKI following CABG and/or valve surgery 
● 
To investigate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of ASP1128 in subjects at risk for 
AKI following CABG and/or valve surgery 
3.1.3 
Exploratory Objective 
● 
To investigate the pharmacodynamic characteristics of ASP1128 in subjects at risk for 
AKI following CABG and/or valve surgery 
● 
To evaluate subject characteristics and biomarkers (including the NC device) for 
identifying subjects at risk for AKI following CABG and/or valve surgery 
 
3.2 
Study Design 
The study is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study with 1 ASP1128 and 
1 placebo treatment arm. Randomization will occur in a 1:1 manner. There will be a cap on 
the proportion of subjects randomized with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 
< 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2 (assessed at visit 1 as per the Chronic Kidney Disease 
Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI] equation) of 20% of the total randomized. 
Randomization will be stratified for eGFR at visit 1 < 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2. 
The eGFR will be calculated using the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation equation in 
Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) [KDIGO, 2013].

The subject’s age at visit 1 will be used for calculation of eGFR in this study. 
Subjects are eligible for screening if they are scheduled for non-emergent (i.e., non-acute or 
directly life threatening) CABG and/or valve surgery within 4 weeks after screening. 
Subjects cannot be rescreened once screening has failed.

Study visits include safety and efficacy assessments: chemistry, hematology and urinalysis 
laboratory assessments, UO, pregnancy test, physical examination, vital signs, blood pressure 
and assessment of AEs. In addition, blood and urine will be sampled for pharmacokinetics, 
pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenomics (PGx), metabolomics and biomarker assessments. 
 
3.3 
Randomization 
Subjects who have a NC AKIRisk score of > 0.3 (ng/ml)2/1000 will be randomized in a 1:1 
ratio to a treatment arm according to the randomization schedules through interactive 
response technology (IRT). There will be a cap on the proportion of subjects randomized 
with a eGFR < 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2 (assessed at visit 1 as per CKD-EPI equation) of 20% 
of total randomized. Randomization will also be stratified for eGFR < 45 and ≥ 45 mL/min 
per 1.73 m2 to allocate subjects equally between study groups within each stratification. The 
site personal will dispense the treatment according to the IRT system’s assignment. Specific 
procedures for randomization through the IRT are contained in the study procedures manual.  
Subjects with NC AKIRisk score of 0.3 or less will be enrolled in the observational cohort.

SAMPLE SIZE 
Sample size of this study is 220 randomized subjects (110 subjects in the ASP1128 group and 
110 subjects in the placebo group). 
The above sample size provides 80% power to detect the difference between ASP1128 and 
placebo on the primary endpoint of AKI proportion in the case of not considering an interim 
analysis, assuming the followings: 
● 
AKI proportion in the placebo group is 60% 
● 
Relative risk of ASP1128 against placebo is 0.7 (30% reduction) 
● 
1-sided significance level is 0.05 
● 
Drop-out rate is around 10% 
In addition, an interim analysis at 60% of enrollment as described below is planned by East® 
6 software. Considering the interim analysis, the power is 78%. 
● 
Futility stop criteria: conditional power to detect the relative difference between 
ASP1128 and placebo on the primary endpoint of AKI proportion is less than 10%, that 
is, 1-sided p-value is larger than 0.259, when approximately 60% of the planned acute 
kidney injury based on serum creatinine within 72 hours after Time point 0 (T0) (AKI-
SCr72h) data have been collected in the study. 
● 
There will be no provision to stop the study for efficacy in the interim analysis, so no 
efficacy stop criteria are defined. 
Approximately 1000 subjects will be screened to enroll 600 subjects who meet the presurgery 
selection criteria. It is expected that 1 out of 3 subjects enrolled will meet the postsurgery 
criterion of having a NC AKIRisk score > 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 and can be randomized: the

ANALYSIS SETS 
In accordance with International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) recommendations in 
guidelines E3 and E9, the following analysis sets will be used for the analyses. 
Detailed criteria for analysis sets will be laid out in Classification Specifications and the 
allocation of subjects to analysis sets will be determined prior to database lock.  
 
5.1 
Full Analysis Set (FAS) 
The Full Analysis Set (FAS) will consist of all randomized subjects who receives at least 
1 dose of study treatment (ASP1128 or placebo), and the analysis is based on the randomized 
treatment. This will be the primary analysis set for efficacy analyses. 
 
5.2 
Per Protocol Set (PPS) 
The Per-Protocol Set (PPS) includes all subjects of the FAS who do not meet criteria for 
exclusion from PPS listed in [Section 5.2.1] of this SAP.  
The PPS will be a secondary analysis set for efficacy analyses. Select demographic and 
baseline characteristics may also be summarized for the PPS. 
 
5.2.1 
Reasons for Exclusion From PPS 
The following reasons may lead to subject’s exclusion from PPS: 
1. Not complete scheduled three times administrations of study drugs 
2. Administration of excluded concomitant treatment as described in the protocol 
3. Violation of the any inclusion or exclusion criteria  
 
5.3 
Safety Analysis Set (SAF) 
The Safety Analysis Set (SAF) consists of all subjects who receives at least 1 dose of study 
treatment (ASP1128 or placebo), and will be used for safety analyses.  
For the statistical summary of the safety data, the SAF will be used.

The Pharmacokinetic Analysis Set (PKAS) consists of the subset of SAF for which at least 
1 concentration available. Additional subjects may be excluded from the PKAS at the 
discretion of the pharmacokineticist. 
The PKAS will be used for all summaries and analyses of the pharmacokinetic data. 
 
5.5 
Pharmacodynamic Analysis Set (PDAS) 
The Pharmacodynamic Analysis Set (PDAS) will include the subjects from the administered 
population for whom sufficient pharmacodynamic measurements were collected The PDAS 
will be used for all analyses of pharmacodynamic data. 
The PDAS will be used for all summaries and analyses of pharmacodynamic data. 
 
5.6 
Prognostic Factor Analysis Set (PFAS) 
The Prognostic Factor Analysis Set (PFAS) consists of NC positive subjects, who are 
randomized to placebo group, and the NC negative subjects, who are in the observational 
cohort. 
The PFAS will be used for exploring the prognostic factors and comparison with to NC test. 
 
6 
ANALYSIS VARIABLES 
The value at presurgery will be used as the baseline unless otherwise specified for each 
endpoint. In case of missing value at presurgery, the last measurement before surgery will be 
used as the baseline. 
The eGFR(SCr) will be calculated using the GFR estimation equation (2009 CKD-EPI 
creatinine equation) [KDIGO, 2013]. The subject’s age at visit 1 should be used for 
calculation in this study.

● 
Clinical laboratory variables (hematology, biochemistry including liver enzymes and 
total bilirubin, and urinalysis) 
● 
Vital signs (systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate) 
 
TEAE is defined as an AE observed after starting administration of the study drug and by 
visit 9 (day 30). If the adverse event occurs on Day 1 and the onset check box is marked 
“Onset after first study drug taken” or the onset check box is left blank, then the adverse 
event will be considered treatment emergent. If the adverse event occurs on Day 1 and the 
onset check box is marked “Onset before first study drug taken”, then the adverse event will 
not be considered treatment emergent. If a subject experiences an event both during the pre-
investigational period and during the investigational period, the event will be considered as 
TEAE only if it has worsened in severity (i.e., it is reported with a new start date).  
A study drug-related TEAE is defined as any TEAE with a causal relationship of YES by the 
investigator or with missing assessment of the causal relationship.

STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY 
7.1 
General Considerations 
● 
For continuous variables, descriptive statistics will include the number of subjects (n), 
mean, standard deviation (SD), median, minimum and maximum. The number of digits 
to be used for the mean, standard deviation and median will be added one more digit to 
raw data with rounding off. The minimum and maximum will be presented with the 
same number of digit(s) as raw data. In addition, for pharmacokinetics (PK) variables, 
the coefficient of variation (CV) and the geometric mean will also be calculated.

Frequencies and percentages will be displayed for categorical data. Percentages by 
categories will be based on the number of subjects with no missing data, i.e. will add up 
to 100%. Frequencies and percentages will be rounded to one decimal place. For time-to-
event variables, the number and percentage of subjects with the event using Kaplan-
Meier method, the cumulative event rate will be estimated and a plot will be constructed. 
● 
Summaries based on FAS and PPS (e.g. disposition, baseline and efficacy data) will be 
presented by planned randomization arm, unless specifically stated otherwise. Safety 
analysis and other summaries based on SAF will be presented by actual treatment 
received. Analysis of Observational Cohort based on PFAS will be presented by 
prognostic factor analysis arm. 
● 
All statistical comparisons will be made using two sided tests at the α=0.10 significance 
level unless specifically stated otherwise.  All null hypotheses will be of no treatment 
difference, all alternative hypotheses will be two-sided, unless specifically stated 
otherwise. 
● 
All data processing, summarization, and analyses will be performed using SAS® Version 
9.4 or higher on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Specifications for Table, Figures, and 
Listings can be found in the TLF specifications for this study. 
● 
For continuous variables that are recorded as “<X”, “<=X”, “>X”, or “>=X”, the value 
of “X” will be used in the calculation of summary statistics if otherwise noted. The 
original values will be used for the listings. 
● 
MedDRA will be used as the coding dictionary for adverse event and medical history. 
● 
WHODrug Global B3 will be used as the coding dictionary for previous and concomitant 
medication.

[Analysis population: FAS, Analysis group: Randomization Arm] 
● 
The primary efficacy endpoint of AKI (AKI-SCr72h) proportion will be analyzed using 
the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test with strata to control for baseline eGFR based

on Serum Creatinine (< 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2, ≥ 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2) on the FAS. 
The hypothesis testing on the primary analysis will be performed at 2-sided 0.10 
significance level to test the null hypothesis that the AKI-SCr72h proportion is equal 
between the 2 treatment arms vs the alternative hypothesis that AKI-SCr72h proportion 
is different between the ASP1128 arm vs the placebo arm. 
● 
The Mantel-Haenszel (MH) estimate of the adjusted common risk ratio and 2-sided 90% 
confidence interval will be calculated. 
If the proportion of subjects with baseline eGFR based on Serum Creatinine < 45 mL/min per 
1.73 m2 for FAS is less than 10%, the above stratified analyses of CMH test and MH estimate 
of adjusted common risk ratio will be replaced with unstratified analyses of chi-square test 
and unadjusted risk ratio. It will also apply to the sensitivity analyses 2, 3 and 4 listed in 
[Table 10]. 
 
7.4.1.2 Sensitivity Analysis 
● 
As a sensitivity analysis for the primary endpoint of AKI (AKI-SCr72h) proportion, the 
chi-square test will be performed to evaluate the appropriateness of CMH test with strata 
to control for baseline eGFR based on Serum Creatinine (< 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2, ≥ 45 
mL/min per 1.73 m2). The estimate of the unadjusted risk ratio and 2-sided 90% 
confidence interval will be calculated. This analysis will be conducted using the FAS. 
● 
Additional sensitivity analyses using other handlings of missing data will be performed 
to evaluate the impact on the analysis of AKI-SCr72h proportions due to any missing 
data/assessments and any loss to follow-up. If there is a missing value at any evaluation 
visit and the subject don’t have the data meeting the criteria of the endpoint, then 
Multiple imputation (MI) will be conducted for each missing component data firstly, and 
AKI-SCr72h proportion will be derived based on the imputed data.  
● 
In additional, different definition of handling of missing data will be used. The subjects 
whose status of AKI-SCr72h is unknown due to, say, the missing data of SCr will be 
counted as AKI-SCr72h event. That is, if there is a missing value at any evaluation visit, 
then the subject will be counted as AKI/MAKE event. The same analysis as primary 
analysis (CMH test) by using this handling of missing data will be performed. 
● 
As a supplementary analysis, the same analysis of the primary endpoint as described in 
[Section 7.4.1.1 Primary Analysis] will be conducted using PPS. 
 
[Table 10] summarizes all sensitivity analyses to be performed with the primary endpoint.

CMH test with MI 
The MI CMH model will be used to compare ASP1128 and placebo group in a fixed 
sequence procedure: 
1. Generate 1000 datasets, using seed 346194, where intermittent missing SCr value will be 
imputed for each treatment relying on non-missing data from all subjects within each 
treatment group using the Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) imputation model with 
treatment and the available non-missing SCr value for each scheduled Visit. The MCMC 
statement in the SAS PROC MI procedure with monotone option will be used. As a 
result, each dataset will only have missing ending data, or a monotone missing data 
pattern. 
2. For each dataset from step 1, missing ending data (SCr value up through 72 hours after 
T0) will be imputed using seed 478034. As a result, 1000 imputed complete datasets will 
be generated. 
● 
Missing data at Visit 3 (T0 + 24 hours) will be imputed using the regression 
imputation model with the stratification factors, baseline and SCr value from Visit 3, 
using the SAS PROC MI procedure with the REGRESSION option in the 
MONOTONE statement. 
● 
The SAS PROC MI procedure will use data separately from each treatment subjects 
to impute the missing data for a specific Visit (i.e., only those that need the 
imputation for the Visit). Since subjects from the different treatment groups for that 
Visit are excluded from the step, they will not contribute to the imputation for the 
Visit. 
● 
Repeat for all other scheduled Visit sequentially (Visit 4 to 5). Subjects whose 
missing data were imputed for previous Visit will contribute to the imputation for 
the current Visit. 
The regression imputation model includes an intercept and the slopes of the SCr value 
from previous Visit and the stratification factors. 
3. The MH estimate of the adjusted common risk ratio, standard error and 2-sided 90% 
confidence interval for AKI-SCr72h proportion will be calculated using the observed or 
imputed SCr value.

7.4.2 
Analysis of Secondary Endpoints  
[Analysis population: FAS, Analysis group: Randomization Arm] 
● 
The secondary efficacy endpoints proportions (AKI-SCr7d, AKI-KDIGO72h, AKI-
KDIGO7d, MAKE30 and MAKE90) will be analyzed using the stratified CMH test with 
strata to control for baseline eGFR based on Serum Creatinine (< 45 mL/min per 1.73 
m2, ≥ 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2). The hypothesis testing will be performed at 2-sided 0.10 
significance level. The MH estimate of the adjusted common risk ratio and 2-sided 90% 
confidence intervals will be calculated. 
● 
As sensitivity analysis, chi-square test will be performed to evaluate the appropriateness 
of CMH test with strata to control for baseline eGFR based on Serum Creatinine (< 45 
mL/min per 1.73 m2, ≥ 45 mL/min per 1.73 m2). The estimates of the risk ratio and 2-
sided 90% confidence intervals will be calculated.  
● 
Additional sensitivity analysis will be performed to evaluate the impact on the analysis 
of AKI/MAKE proportions due to any missing data/assessments and any loss to follow-
up. If there is a missing value at any evaluation visit and the subject don’t have the data 
meeting the criteria of the endpoint, then MI will be conducted for each missing 
component data firstly, then AKI/MAKE endpoint will be derived based on the imputed 
data.  
● 
In additional, different definition of handling of missing data will be used. The subjects 
whose status of AKI/MAKE endpoint is unknown due to, say, the missing data of SCr 
will be counted as AKI/MAKE event. That is, if there is a missing value at any 
evaluation visit, then the subject will be counted as AKI/MAKE event. The same 
analysis as primary analysis (CMH test) by using this handling of missing data will be 
performed. 
● 
As exploratory analyses, the association between MAKE30/MAKE90 (and also each 
individual outcomes, of all-cause mortality, initiation of RRT and eGFR based on SCr at 
day 30 (Visit 9)/day 90 (Visit 10) equal to or less than 75% of the baseline value) and 
primary, secondary and exploratory endpoint of AKI proportion is evaluated by a 
contingency table. The following endpoints of AKI proportion will be used; 
- 
AKI-SCr72h (primary endpoint),

Subgroup Analysis 
[Analysis population: FAS, Analysis group: Randomization Arm] 
● 
The estimate of the unadjusted risk ratio and 2-sided 90% confidence interval for the 
primary efficacy endpoint of AKI (AKI-SCr72h) proportion and secondary endpoints 
will be calculated by subgroups defined in [Section 7.8]. 
● 
In addition, the forest plot will be provided.  
● 
For the continuous type subgroup factors, logistic regression model will be fitted for 
each continuous type subgroup factor 1 by 1. For each logistic regression model, 
response variable is primary or secondary endpoints (AKI-SCr72h, AKI-SCr7d, AKI-
KDIGO72h, AKI-KDIGO7d, MAKE30 and MAKE90) and explanatory variables are 
treatment group, the subgroup factor and the interaction term of treatment group and the 
subgroup factor. The p-value of interaction will be calculated. The explanatory variables 
that will be used are listed as follows;

Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE). In the subject count, if a 
subject has multiple TEAEs with the same SOC or PT, but with differing NCI-CTCAE 
Grade, then the subject will be counted only once with the worst NCI-CTCAE Grade, 
however, if any of the NCI-CTCAE Grade values are missing then the subject will be 
counted only once with missing NCI-CTCAE Grade.  In the adverse event count, the adverse 
events will be presented in each category they were classified to. Drug related TEAEs will be 
presented in a similar way by NCI-CTCAE Grade.

The number and percentage of subjects with TEAEs, as classified by SOC and PT will be 
summarized for each treatment group by time interval. For each adverse event in a particular 
interval, a subject will be counted if there is an onset of a treatment-emergent adverse event 
regardless of onset in other intervals. 
Time intervals will be categorized according to the following categories: 
● 
>= 0 hours to <= 24 hours after T0 
● 
> 24 hours to <= 48 hours after T0 
● 
> 48 hours to <= 72 hours after T0 
● 
> 72 hours after T0 to <= Day 7 or DoD 
●

The number and percentage of subjects with TEAEs, as classified by SOC and PT will be 
summarized for each treatment group by subgroups defined in [Section 7.8]. 
 
7.5.2 
Clinical Laboratory Evaluation 
The baseline visit is the presurgery measurement. In case of missing value at presurgery, the 
last measurement before surgery will be used as the baseline.  
Quantitative clinical laboratory variables, i.e. hematology, biochemistry, and urinalysis will 
be summarized in SI unit, using mean, standard deviation, minimum, maximum and median 
for each treatment group at each visit. Additionally, a within-subject change will be 
calculated as the post-baseline measurement minus the baseline measurement and 
summarized in the same way. Each laboratory result will be classified as low (L), normal 
(N), or high (H) at each visit according to the laboratory supplied reference ranges.  
Frequency tabulations of qualitative clinical laboratory variables (urinalysis) will be 
presented for each treatment group at each visit.  
For hematology and biochemistry shift table will be presented for each treatment group:  
● 
Summary shifts from of reference range changes from baseline to each visit (shift from 
normal or high to low, shift from normal or low to high, categorized increase [shift from 
low to normal or from normal to high], categorized no change [value stays in the same 
reference range], categorized decrease [shift from high to normal or from normal to 
low]).

Analysis for Observational Cohort 
[Analysis population: PFAS, Analysis group: Weighted Total (PFAS)] 
Potential risk factors (demographics, subject characteristics, biomarkers) for development of 
AKI and MAKE (AKI-SCr72h, AKI-SCr7d, MAKE30, and MAKE90) will be explored. 
Population standardization is used in this analysis. Weighted Total (PFAS) is the set of NC 
negative group and NC positive group weighted by (the number of subjects assigned to 
Placebo group + the number of subjects assigned to ASP1128 group)/ (the number of 
subjects in Placebo group). The estimate of the unadjusted risk ratio, 2-sided 90% confidence 
interval, true positive rate, and true negative rate for AKI and MAKE (AKI-SCr72h, AKI-
SCr7d, MAKE30, and MAKE90) proportion will be calculated by risk factors listed in [Table 
13]. In Analysis for Observational Cohort, subjects whose status of AKI and MAKE is 
unknown due to, say, the missing data of SCr will not be counted as AKI/MAKE event. This 
treatment for missing data is different from it for primary and secondary endpoints.

● 
Primary efficacy endpoint and secondary efficacy endpoints will be summarized for the 
subjects with NC positive within T0 + 24 hours and NC negative within T0 + 24 hours 
and all subjects in Observational Cohort. In the table, each stage of AKI-SCr72h and 
AKI-SCr7d and each individual outcomes of MAKE30/90 will also be summarized.  
● 
For Observational Cohort, the association between MAKE30/MAKE90 (and also each 
individual outcomes, of all-cause mortality, initiation of RRT and eGFR based on SCr at 
day 30 (Visit 9)/day 90 (Visit 10) equal to or less than 75% of the baseline value) and 
primary, secondary and exploratory endpoint of AKI proportion is evaluated by a 
contingency table. The following endpoints of AKI proportion will be used; 
- 
AKI-SCr72h (primary endpoint) and each stage, 
- 
AKI-SCr7d (secondary endpoint) and each stage, 
- 
AKI-SCr stage 2 or 3 (within 72 hours after T0), and 
- 
AKI-SCr stage 2 or 3 (within 7 days after T0) 
 
7.10 
Interim Analysis (and Early Discontinuation of the Clinical Study) 
A formal interim analysis for futility is planned when approximately 60% of the planned 
AKI-SCr72h data have been collected in the study to evaluate whether ASP1128 has 
particularly poor efficacy compared to placebo while the study is ongoing. When conditional 
power to detect the difference between ASP1128 and placebo on the primary endpoint of 
AKI-SCr72h proportion is < 10%, that is, 2-sided p-value is > 0.518 and/or MH estimate of 
the common risk ratio (ASP1128 / placebo) is > 1, the study may stop. No interim stop for 
efficacy is planned, so the overall 2-sided 0.10 significance level is controlled.  
A Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will be instated to perform the interim analysis, which 
may recommend (nonbinding) terminating the study for unfavorable results at the interim 
analysis as described above. 
Details for the interim analysis, primary endpoint of AKI-SCr72h proportion will be 
contained in the interim analysis plan and DMC Charter. Recommendations regarding study 
conduct will be made by the DMC based on their assessment of this result. If the study is 
stopped at the interim analysis, a final analysis will be conducted after the database will be 
locked.

All analyses will be performed based on CRF visit with the following exceptions: 
● 
For the baseline, the value at presurgery will be used as the baseline. However in case of 
missing value at presurgery, the last measurement before surgery will be used as the 
baseline. 
● 
For the pharmacodynamic analysis, the data for 2-4 hours postdose at visit 2 which is 
taken within 1 hour after the administration of study drug will be excluded for analysis.
