Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Percentage of Motor Milestones Responders
Time Frame: assessed at the later of the Day 183, Day 302, or Day 394 study visits
|
The definition of a motor milestones responder was based on improvement in the motor milestones categories in Section 2 of the Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE), with the exclusion of voluntary grasp, as follows: (i) subject demonstrates ≥ 2-point increase in the motor milestones category of ability to kick or achievement of maximal score on that category (touching toes), or a 1-point increase in the motor milestones category of head control, rolling, sitting, crawling, standing, or walking, and (ii) among the motor milestone categories, with the exclusion of voluntary grasp, there are more categories where there is improvement as defined in (i) than worsening. (For the category of ability to kick, worsening is defined as ≥ 2-point decrease or decrease to the lowest possible score of no kicking. For the other categories, worsening is defined as ≥ 1-point decrease.) The lowest possible score for the HINE is 0 (zero), and the highest possible score for the HINE is 28. |
assessed at the later of the Day 183, Day 302, or Day 394 study visits
|
Time to Death or Permanent Ventilation
Time Frame: Day 91, Day 182, Day 273, Day 364, Day 394
|
Estimated proportion of participants who died or required permanent ventilation by a given study day, based on the Kaplan-Meier product-limit method.
Time to death or permanent ventilation was defined as either tracheostomy or ≥ 16 hours ventilation/day continuously for > 21 days in the absence of an acute reversible event.
This endpoint was adjudicated by a blinded, independent group of experienced clinicians, the Event Adjudication Committee (EAC), based on review of clinical study data and supporting information.
Results are based on all available data.

Day 91, Day 182, Day 273, Day 364, Day 394
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Percentage of Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Infant Test of Neuromuscular Disorders (CHOP-INTEND) Responders
Time Frame: assessed at Baseline and the later of the Day 183, Day 302, or Day 394 study visits
|
A participants was considered a CHOP-INTEND responder if the change from baseline in CHOP-INTEND total score is ≥ 4 points based on assessment at the later of the Day 183, Day 302, or Day 394 study visits.
CHOP-INTEND tests includes 16 items structured to move from easiest to hardest with the grading including gravity eliminated (lower scores) to antigravity movements (higher scores).
Total scores range from 0 to 64, with higher scores indicating better movement functioning.
Results are based on all available data.
|
assessed at Baseline and the later of the Day 183, Day 302, or Day 394 study visits
|
Summary of Time to Death
Time Frame: Day 91, Day 182, Day 273, Day 364, Day 394
|
Estimated proportion of participants who died by given duration thresholds, based on the Kaplan-Meier product-limit method.
|
Day 91, Day 182, Day 273, Day 364, Day 394
|
Percentage of Participants Not Requiring Permanent Ventilation
Time Frame: Up to Day 394
|
Up to Day 394
|
|
Percentage of Compound Muscular Action Potential (CMAP) Responders
Time Frame: assessed at the later of the Day 183, Day 302, or Day 394 study visits
|
CMAP is an electrophysiological technique that can be used to determine the approximate number of motor neurons in a muscle or group of muscles.
A participant was defined as a CMAP responder if the CMAP amplitude at the peroneal nerve was increasing to or maintained at ≥ 1 mV (comparing to the baseline) based on assessment at the later of the Day 183, Day 302, or Day 394 study visits.
Results are based on all available data.

AE: any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the study or use of investigational drug product, whether or not the AE is considered related to the investigational drug product.
SAE: any AE that in the view of either the Investigator or Sponsor, meets any of the following criteria: results in death; is life threatening: that is, poses an immediate risk of death at the time of the event; requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in a persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions; results in congenital anomaly or birth defect in the offspring of the participant (whether male or female); is an important medical event in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor.
