Exclusion Criteria

Individuals who meet any of the following exclusion criteria are not
eligible to participate in the study:
1. Have hypochondroplasia or short stature condition other than ACH
(e.g., trisomy 21, pseudoachondroplasia)
2. Have any of the following disorders:
o Hypothyroidism
o Insulin-requiring diabetes mellitus
o Autoimmune inflammatory disease (including celiac disease, lupus
(SLE), juvenile dermatomyositis, scleroderma, and others)
o Inflammatory bowel disease
o Autonomic neuropathy
3. Have an unstable clinical condition likely to lead to intervention during
the course ofthe study, including progressive cervical medullary
compression
4. Growth plates have fused
5. Have a history of any of the following:
o Renal insufficiency
o Anemia
6. Have a history of cardiac or vascular disease, including the following:
o Cardiac dysfunction
o Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
o Congenital heart disease
o Cerebrovascular disease, aortic insufficiency
o Clinically significant atrial or ventricular arrhythmias
7. Current treatment with antihypertensive medications, ACE inhibitors,
angiotensin IIreceptor blockers, diuretics, beta-blockers, calciumchannel
blockers, cardiacglycosides, systemic anticholinergic agents, any
medication that may impair orenhance compensatory tachycardia, drugs
known to alter renal function that isexpected to continue for the
duration of the study
8. Have been treated with growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1
(IGF-1), oranabolic steroids in the previous 6 months or long-term
treatment (> 3 months) at anytime
9. Have had regular long-term treatment (> 1 month) with oral
corticosteroids (low-dose ongoing inhaled steroid for asthma is
acceptable) in the previous 12 months
10. Concomitant medication that prolongs the QT/QTc interval within 14
days or5 half-lives, whichever is longer, before the Screening visit
11. Have used any other investigational product or investigational
medical device for the treatment of ACH or short stature
12. Planned or expected bone-related surgery (ie. surgery involving
disruption of bone cortex), during the study period. Subjects with
previous bone-related surgery may enroll if surgery occurred at least 12
months prior to the study and healing is complete without sequelae.
13. Planned or expected to have limb-lengthening surgery during the
study period.Subjects with previous limb- lengthening surgery may
enroll if surgery occurred at least 18 months prior to the study and
healing is complete without sequelae.
14. Have any condition that, in the view of the Investigator, places the
subject at high risk of poor compliance with the visit schedule or of not
