MeasureTime frameDescription
Part 1: Selected Part 2 Dose of Risdiplam for Participants With a Body Weight (BW) of >/=20kgDay 1 up to at least 4 weeks on study (Up to CCOD of 25 July 2017)The Internal Monitoring Committee (IMC) was responsible for selecting the dose for Part 2 of the study (pivotal dose). An external Independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) reviewed data from Part 1 and confirmed the dose-selection decision of the IMC. The dose for Part 2 selected by the IMC was a dose that: 1.Was judged to be safe and well-tolerated, based on all available safety data from Part 1 and as confirmed by the iDMC; 2. Resulted in an exposure at steady-state below the exposure cap (mean value) of AUC0-24h,ss 2000 ng\*h/mL (adjusted for free-fraction, if required); 3. Resulted in an SMN protein increase that was expected to be clinically relevant.

Part 2: Change From Baseline in the Total Motor Function Measure 32 (MFM-32) Total Score at Month 12Baseline (Day-1) and Month 12The Motor Function Measure 32 (MFM32) is a scale constructed for use in neuromuscular disorders. It comprises 32 items that evaluate physical function in three dimensions: D1 function related to standing and transfer; D2 axial and proximal function; D3 distal motor function. Tasks are scored with a 4-point Likert scale: 0 - cannot initiate the task or maintain the starting position; 1 - performs the task partially; 2 - performs the task incompletely or imperfectly; 3 - performs the task fully and normally. The 32 scores are summed and expressed on a 0-100 scale for the MFM32 total score. Higher scores indicate increased motor function. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement. MMRM analysis was performed based on primary efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.

Part 2: Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in the Placebo-Controlled PeriodDay 1 up to 12 months of the placebo-controlled periodAn adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events.
Part 2: Percentage of Participants With Treatment Discontinuation Due to Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in the Placebo-Controlled PeriodDay 1 up to 12 months of the placebo-controlled periodAn adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product.

Outcome results

Primary

Part 1: Selected Part 2 Dose of Risdiplam for Participants With a Body Weight (BW) of >/=20kg

The Internal Monitoring Committee (IMC) was responsible for selecting the dose for Part 2 of the study (pivotal dose). An external Independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) reviewed data from Part 1 and confirmed the dose-selection decision of the IMC. The dose for Part 2 selected by the IMC was a dose that: 1.Was judged to be safe and well-tolerated, based on all available safety data from Part 1 and as confirmed by the iDMC; 2. Resulted in an exposure at steady-state below the exposure cap (mean value) of AUC0-24h,ss 2000 ng\*h/mL (adjusted for free-fraction, if required); 3. Resulted in an SMN protein increase that was expected to be clinically relevant.

Part 2: Change From Baseline in the Total Motor Function Measure 32 (MFM-32) Total Score at Month 12

The Motor Function Measure 32 (MFM32) is a scale constructed for use in neuromuscular disorders. It comprises 32 items that evaluate physical function in three dimensions: D1 function related to standing and transfer; D2 axial and proximal function; D3 distal motor function. Tasks are scored with a 4-point Likert scale: 0 - cannot initiate the task or maintain the starting position; 1 - performs the task partially; 2 - performs the task incompletely or imperfectly; 3 - performs the task fully and normally. The 32 scores are summed and expressed on a 0-100 scale for the MFM32 total score. Higher scores indicate increased motor function. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement. MMRM analysis was performed based on primary efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.

Time frame: Baseline (Day-1) and Month 12

Part 2: Change From Baseline in the Best Sniff Nasal Inspiratory Pressure (SNIP) at Month 12

The Sniff Nasal Inspiratory Pressure (SNIP) is a volitional, non-invasive test of inspiratory muscle strength that has been successfully applied to children \> 2 years of age. Advantages include the simplicity of the maneuver and the absence of a mouthpiece, which is particularly helpful for participants with SMA, who may have bulbar weakness. SNIP also has the advantage of measuring inspiratory pressure during a natural maneuver that is easily performed even by young children with neuromuscular disorders. The best % predicted value out of all attempts were used for the analysis.

Part 2: Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in the Placebo-Controlled Period

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events.
