Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) by Severity Grade and Study Drug Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Time Frame: Up to Week 56 (Safety Follow-Up +/-7d)
A treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) is any Adverse Events that newly appeared, increased in frequency or worsened in severity following initiation of study drug administration. A severity grade was defined by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03. As per CTCAE, Grade 1 scales as Mild; Grade 2 scales as Moderate; Grade 3 scales as severe or medically significant but not immediately life threatening; Grade 4 scales as life-threatening consequences; and Grade 5 scales as death related to AE. Safety Population includes all sentinel and randomized participants in the FAS who received at least one dose of vosoritide or placebo in this study. Serious adverse event (SAE)
Change From Baseline in Height Z-score at Week 52.
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 52
Z-Scores were derived using age-sex specific reference data (means and SDS) for average stature children per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A height Z score of 0 would indicate that the subject's height is equal to the mean height for the average stature population of the same sex and age. A positive height Z score indicates that the subjects height is above the mean height for the average stature population of the same sex and age, whilst a negative height Z score indicates that the subjects height is below the mean height for the average stature population of the same sex and age. To conclude if the height Z score increases then this means the height deficit has decreased. standard deviation score (SDS). The primary efficacy analysis population was the subset of randomized participants in the FAS.
