| Safety (Adverse Events) | 12 weeks | Incidence of Adverse events (AEs), including serious adverse events (SAEs), between baseline to end of study. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Blood Pharmacokinetics of Tideglusib | 12 weeks | Pharmacokinetic samples were collected to determine time of the maximum plasma concentration and terminal elimination half-life of tideglusib |
| Area Under the Plasma Concentration vs. Time Curve of Tideglusib | 12 weeks | Pharmacokinetic samples were collected to determine area under the plasma concentration vs. time curve from 0 to 12 h and area under the plasma concentration vs. time curve from 0 to 24 h of tideglusib |
| 10 Metre Walk/Run Test | 12 weeks | The 10-metre walk/run test is a performance measure used to assess walking speed in metres per second over a short distance and was used as an assessment of functional mobility. Time taken to complete the 10m walk/run test at fastest and preferred speed is measured. |
| Computerised Handgrip Myometer Measure of Grip Strength and Muscle Relaxation Time | 12 weeks | Handgrip myometry is used as a measure of myotonia and muscle strength for the dominant hand |
| Respiratory Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) | 12 weeks | FVC is a measure of lung function (the total amount of air exhaled during a Forced Expiratory Volume is measured using a spirometer) |
| Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) | 12 weeks | DXA utilises two low energy X-ray beams, with different energy levels, which are aimed at the subject's bones. The DXA scan is more typically used to measure bone mineral density, however it can also be used to measure total lean muscle mass |
| Clinical Global Impressions- Severity (CGI-S) | 12 weeks | The CGI-S is a 7-point Likert type scale that requires the clinician to rate the severity of the subject's illness at the time of assessment, relative to the clinician's past experience with subjects who have the same diagnosis. Considering total clinical experience, a subject is assessed on severity of illness at the time of rating 1, normal, not at all ill; 2, borderline ill; 3, mildly ill; 4, moderately ill; 5, markedly ill; 6, severely ill; or 7, extremely ill. Change in CGI-S was observed in only 1 subject. Consequently statistical analysis was not conducted. |
| Clinical Global Impressions- Improvement (CGI-I) | 12 weeks | The CGI-I requires the clinician to rate how much the subject's illness has improved or worsened relative to a baseline state. A seven point Likert type scale is used from 1 = very much improved, 2 = much improved, 3 = minimally improved, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse, 7 = very much worse. |
| Actigraphy (3-minute Bouts of Activity) | 12 weeks | Actigraphy is a non-invasive method of monitoring physical activity via an actigraph device. The actigraph device was worn on the waist during waking hours, according to the device's instruction manual. |
| Plasma Concentration of Tideglusib | 12 weeks | Pharmacokinetic samples were collected to determine Tideglusib plasma concentration |
| Actigraphy (Steps) | 12 weeks | Actigraphy is a non-invasive method of monitoring physical activity via an actigraph device. The actigraph device was worn on the waist during waking hours, according to the device's instruction manual. |
| Nine Hole Peg Test (NHPT) | 12 weeks | Measure of fine manual dexterity. Time to taken to complete the NHPT (dominant hand) is recorded. |
| Top 3 Concerns Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Score | 12 weeks | The Top 3 concerns VAS allows caregivers to identify their main three causes of concern, related to the subject's myotonic dystrophy, rather than these being pre-specified within a scale and then rating how these concerns have changed at specific time-points during the study. Subjects, where possible, and caregivers were asked to rate three causes for concern by drawing a vertical mark on a 10 cm long visual analogue scale with anchors of not at all severe at the left end (0 cm) and very severe at the right end (10 cm). A score for each concern was to be determined by measuring the number of centimeters on the 10 cm VAS line from the anchor point on the left side of the line. A total VAS score for each subject was calculated as the sum of the scores for the 3 concerns (minimum = 0 cm, maximum = 30 cm). A higher score represents a worse outcome. |
| Ohio State University (OSU) Autism Rating Scale (OARS) | 12 weeks | The OARS-4 contains the autism signs and symptoms in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition. These were to be rated with the degree of impairment the subject experiences for the given symptom. The symptoms were to be elicited in a semi-structured interview with the subject's primary caregiver. The assessor was to take both frequency/duration and degree of impairment into account and how much the item interferes with relationships, learning, and/or activities of daily living. The scores for this assessment were from 0 (Never or Rarely; Not a Problem) to 3 (Very Often; A Severe Problem): a score for each symptom of social impairment, communication impairment and restricted patterns were averaged to provide a total impairment score. A higher score represents a worse outcome (minimum = 0, maximum 3). |
| Ohio State University (OSU) Autism Clinical Global Impression (CGI) | 12 weeks | The OSU Autism CGI scale contains separate subscales for symptom severity and for global improvement. These are rated in a similar way to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) CGI Severity scale, but it is focused on autism spectrum symptoms. OSU Autism CGI-severity and OSU Autism CGI-improvement scores use a seven point Likert rating scale from 1 = very much improved, 2 = much improved, 3 = minimally improved, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse, 7 = very much worse. |
| Clinician-completed Domain Specific Cause for Concern Visual Analogue Scale (VAS): Myotonic Dystrophy | 12 weeks | The Clinician-completed Domain Specific Causes for Concern is a Visual Analogue Scale completed by the clinician that scores the severity of concerns of domains that are clinically relevant in myotonic dystrophy. The severity of the clinician's concern is scored by using a 10 cm visual analogue scale (VAS), with anchors of not at all severe at the left end (0 cm) and very severe at the right end (10 cm). The clinician is asked to make a vertical line indicating his/her level of concern in each domain, using a time frame of the past week for reference. A score is to be determined by measuring the number of centimeters on the 10 cm VAS line from the anchor point on the left side of the line. A total VAS score for each subject was calculated as the sum of the scores for the 17 domains (minimum = 0, maximum = 170 cm). A higher score represents a worse outcome. |
| Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) | 12 weeks | The PPVT-4 scale is a norm-referenced instrument for measuring the receptive (hearing) vocabulary of children and adults. It contains training items and 228 test items, each consisting of four full-colour pictures as response options on a page. For each item, the examiner says a word, and the examinee responds by selecting the picture that best illustrates that word's meaning. Each administration of the test produces a raw score (number of test items answered correctly), which can be converted to a standard score (using age-based norms) with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Higher scores mean a better performance/receptive vocabulary. |
| Biomarker - Lymphocyte GSK3β Levels and Activity | 12 weeks | Total levels of GSK3β protein was determined via x-MAP technology in a Luminex 200 platform using the AKT Pathway Total Multispecies 7-Plex Panel from ThermoFisher Scientific. |
| Actigraphy (>10-minute Bouts of Activity) | 12 weeks | Actigraphy is a non-invasive method of monitoring physical activity via an actigraph device. The actigraph device was worn on the waist during waking hours, according to the device's instruction manual. |

Clinician-completed Domain Specific Cause for Concern Visual Analogue Scale (VAS): Myotonic Dystrophy
The Clinician-completed Domain Specific Causes for Concern is a Visual Analogue Scale completed by the clinician that scores the severity of concerns of domains that are clinically relevant in myotonic dystrophy. The severity of the clinician's concern is scored by using a 10 cm visual analogue scale (VAS), with anchors of not at all severe at the left end (0 cm) and very severe at the right end (10 cm). The clinician is asked to make a vertical line indicating his/her level of concern in each domain, using a time frame of the past week for reference. A score is to be determined by measuring the number of centimeters on the 10 cm VAS line from the anchor point on the left side of the line. A total VAS score for each subject was calculated as the sum of the scores for the 17 domains (minimum = 0, maximum = 170 cm). A higher score represents a worse outcome.

The OSU Autism CGI scale contains separate subscales for symptom severity and for global improvement. These are rated in a similar way to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) CGI Severity scale, but it is focused on autism spectrum symptoms. OSU Autism CGI-severity and OSU Autism CGI-improvement scores use a seven point Likert rating scale from 1 = very much improved, 2 = much improved, 3 = minimally improved, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse, 7 = very much worse.

Ohio State University (OSU) Autism Rating Scale (OARS)
The OARS-4 contains the autism signs and symptoms in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition. These were to be rated with the degree of impairment the subject experiences for the given symptom. The symptoms were to be elicited in a semi-structured interview with the subject's primary caregiver. The assessor was to take both frequency/duration and degree of impairment into account and how much the item interferes with relationships, learning, and/or activities of daily living. The scores for this assessment were from 0 (Never or Rarely; Not a Problem) to 3 (Very Often; A Severe Problem): a score for each symptom of social impairment, communication impairment and restricted patterns were averaged to provide a total impairment score. A higher score represents a worse outcome (minimum = 0, maximum 3).

Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT)
The PPVT-4 scale is a norm-referenced instrument for measuring the receptive (hearing) vocabulary of children and adults. It contains training items and 228 test items, each consisting of four full-colour pictures as response options on a page. For each item, the examiner says a word, and the examinee responds by selecting the picture that best illustrates that word's meaning. Each administration of the test produces a raw score (number of test items answered correctly), which can be converted to a standard score (using age-based norms) with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Higher scores mean a better performance/receptive vocabulary.

Top 3 Concerns Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Score
The Top 3 concerns VAS allows caregivers to identify their main three causes of concern, related to the subject's myotonic dystrophy, rather than these being pre-specified within a scale and then rating how these concerns have changed at specific time-points during the study. Subjects, where possible, and caregivers were asked to rate three causes for concern by drawing a vertical mark on a 10 cm long visual analogue scale with anchors of not at all severe at the left end (0 cm) and very severe at the right end (10 cm). A score for each concern was to be determined by measuring the number of centimeters on the 10 cm VAS line from the anchor point on the left side of the line. A total VAS score for each subject was calculated as the sum of the scores for the 3 concerns (minimum = 0 cm, maximum = 30 cm). A higher score represents a worse outcome.
