  • The Hierarchical Composite EndpointFrom baseline (day 0) to end of the follow-up phase (day 120)

    The primary outcome is net benefit, assessed using a hierarchical composite of four patient-centered outcomes: (1) time to death from any cause, (2) time to all-cause hospitalization, (3) ≥ 5-point difference of KCCQ-12 OSS change from baseline, and (4) ≥ 3-point difference in PROMIS Depression T-score change from baseline
