Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C) Global Score at Week 40
Time Frame: Week 40
Changes in the severity of rickets and bowing were assessed using a disease specific qualitative RGI-C scoring system. The RGI-C is a 7-point ordinal scale with possible values: +3 = very much better (complete or near complete healing of rickets), +2 = much better (substantial healing of rickets), +1 = minimally better (i.e., minimal healing of rickets), 0 = unchanged, -1 = minimally worse (minimal worsening of rickets), -2 = much worse (moderate worsening of rickets), -3 = very much worse (severe worsening of rickets).

Week 64
Change From Baseline in RSS Total Score at Week 40
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 40
The RSS system is a 10-point radiographic scoring method that was developed to assess the severity of nutritional rickets in the wrists and knees based on the degree of metaphyseal fraying, cupping, lucency, separation, and the proportion of the growth plate affected. Scores are assigned for the unilateral wrist and knee X-rays deemed by the rater to be the more severe of the bilateral images. The maximum total score on the RSS is 10 points and the minimum score is 0, with a total possible score of 4 points for the wrists and 6 points for the knees (the total score is the sum of the wrist and knee score). Higher scores indicate greater rickets severity.

Week 64
Change From Baseline in Height-For-Age Z-Scores to Week 40
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 40
Recumbent length/Standing height z scores are measures of height adjusted for a child's age and sex. The Z-score indicates the number of standard deviations away from a reference population (from the Centers for Disease Control [CDC] growth charts) in the same age range and with the same sex. A Z-score of 0 is equal to the mean with negative numbers indicating values lower than the mean and positive values higher. Higher Z-scores indicate a better outcome.

Baseline, Week 64
Change in Growth Velocity Z Score From Baseline to Week 40
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 40
A growth velocity Z score was calculated based on Tanner's standard. The Z score indicates the number of standard deviations away from a reference population (from Tanner's standard) in the same age range and with the same sex. The baseline growth velocity was calculated for participants who had data available from within 1.5 years prior to baseline. The Week 64 growth velocity was calculated using data between baseline and Week 64. The mid-point of the age interval was used to locate the closest reference age provided by Tanner's Standard. Children with a mid-point age under 2.25 years were excluded, because younger ages are not available in Tanner's standard. To smoothly transition from recumbent length to standing height, 0·8 cm was subtracted from recumbent length before pooling with standing height. A Z score of 0 is equal to the mean with negative numbers indicating values lower than the mean and positive values higher. Higher Z scores indicate a better outcome.

Change From Baseline in the PROMIS Pediatric Pain Interference, Physical Function Mobility and Fatigue Domain Scores (For Participants ≥ 5 Years of Age at the Screening Visit) at Week 40
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 40
The PROMIS was developed by the National Institutes of Health and uses domain-specific measures to assess patient well-being (Broderick et al. 2013), (NIH 2015). It uses a T-score metric in which 50 is the mean of a relevant reference population and 10 is the standard deviation (SD) of that population. For the Pain Interference Domain, decreases indicate less pain, for the Physical Function Mobility Domain, increases indicate greater mobility and for the Fatigue Domain, decreases indicate less fatigue.
