Study enrollment started in February 2023. The projected total duration of the study is approximately 5 years at minimum from start of study recruitment in February 2023, with the duration of individual prospective follow-up differing depending on the time of enrollment. The study duration may be extended based on decisions by the study sponsor. Data will be collected in two formats for the primary pediatric study population: 1.
