  • Male or female participants, age 2 years to < 18 years at the Screening Visit. Participants age 12 to < 18 years (Cohort 1) must weigh at least 29.5 kilograms (kg). Participants age 2 to < 12 years (Cohort 2) must weigh at least 11 kg.
  • Participant has been diagnosed with NDO due to one of the following: spinal dysraphism, which includes spina bifida (eg, myelomeningocele, meningocele) and all forms of tethered cord; or acquired NDO from a spinal cord injury or spinal cord surgery, with the injury/surgery having occurred at least 6 months prior to the Screening Visit; or acquired NDO due to transverse myelitis with diagnosis at least 12 months prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Participant undergoes CIC at least 3 times per 24 hours (with the last CIC performed prior to going to sleep for the night) for at least 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit.
Exclusion Criteria
  • Participant has cerebral palsy, uncontrolled epilepsy, diabetes insipidus, or Stage 2 hypertension
  • Participant has an active malignancy in the 12 months prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Participant has been administered intravesical botulinum toxin within 9 months prior to the Screening Visit and should remain off this therapy during the study.
  • Participant is taking digoxin or lithium within 10 days prior to Screening Visit or plans to start taking either during the study.
  • Participant currently uses or plans to use a baclofen pump during the study.
  • Participant has urethral dilatation or has had urethral surgery in the 3 months prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Participant has undergone bladder augmentation surgery.
  • Participant has a known genitourinary condition (other than NDO) that may cause overactive contractions or incontinence (bladder exstrophy, urinary tract obstruction, urethral diverticulum or fistula) or bladder stones or another persistent urinary tract pathology that may cause symptoms.
  • Participant has an insufficient urethral sphincter, has had implantation of an artificial sphincter, has a surgically-treated underactive urethral sphincter, or, in the 6 months prior to the Screening Visit, has undergone pelvic gender reassignment surgery.
  • Participant has one of the following gastrointestinal problems: partial or complete obstruction, decreased motility such as paralytic ileus, risk of gastric retention, or malabsorption syndrome of any form.
  • Participant has fecal impaction or a history of fecal impaction requiring hospitalization or ambulatory surgical treatment in the 3 months prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Participant has a urinary indwelling catheter in the 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Participant has moderate to severe dilating vesicoureteral reflux (Grade III to V) or severe renal failure.
  • Participant started electrostimulation/neuromodulation therapy in the 4 weeks before the Screening Visit, or is expected to start this therapy during the study period.
  • Participant has participated in another clinical trial and/or has taken an investigational drug within 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Participant is unable, or parent/caregiver is not willing, to washout any medication for the management of NDO.
  • Participant is a female of childbearing potential who is unwilling or unable to use a highly effective method of contraception for the duration of the study.
  • Female participants who are currently breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed any time from the Screening Visit until 28 days after the final study drug administration.

GroupInterventionDescription
Cohort 1: Vibegron Adolescents (12 to < 18 years)VibegronPart A: Participants aged 12 to \< 18 years will receive vibegron based on their weight, with dose reduction based on individual clinical condition, PK, and safety/tolerability data. Participants may be dose-reduced up to 2 times. Part B: Participants will receive a Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB)-selected vibegron dose for their weight determined from participants in their respective cohort and weight band of Part A.
Cohort 2: Vibegron Children (2 to < 12 years)VibegronPart A: Participants aged 2 to \< 12 years will receive vibegron based on their weight, after DSMB review of Cohort 1, Part A data, with dose reduction based on individual clinical condition, PK, and safety/tolerability data. Participants may be dose-reduced up to 2 times. Part B: Participants will receive a DSMB-selected vibegron dose for their weight determined from participants in their respective cohort and weight band of Part A.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from Baseline in maximum cystometric capacity (MCC) based on bladder filling urodynamicsBaseline and at Week 32
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from Baseline in average first morning catheterized volumeBaseline and at Weeks 1, 4, 8, 20, 32, 48, and 52
Change from Baseline in MCCBaseline and at Week 20
Change from Baseline in bladder compliance (mL/cm H2O)Baseline and at Weeks 20 and 32

Bladder compliance is calculated by dividing the change in volume by the change in detrusor pressure during the filling of the bladder

Change from Baseline in number of overactive detrusor contractions until the end of bladder fillingBaseline and at Weeks 20 and 32
Change from Baseline in detrusor pressure at the end of bladder fillingBaseline and at Weeks 20 and 32
Change from Baseline in bladder filling volume until first involuntary/hyperactive detrusor contractionBaseline and at Weeks 20 and 32
Change from Baseline in Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) ScaleBaseline and at Weeks 20, 32 and 52

The CGI-C scale is used to determine the degree of change in participant's overall bladder symptoms since the start of the study on Day 1. The scale will be filled by the investigator by ticking on any of the following options: very much improved, much improved, minimally improved, no change, minimally worse, much worse and very much worse.

Change from Baseline in average catheterized volume per catheterizationBaseline and at Weeks 1, 4, 8, 20, 32, 48, and 52
Change from Baseline in average maximum catheterized volume per dayBaseline and at Weeks 1, 4, 8, 20, 32, 48, and 52
Change from Baseline in Pediatric Incontinence Questionnaire (PIN-Q)Baseline and at Weeks 20, 32 and 52

PIN-Q is a 20-item questionnaire addressing quality of life for participants with bladder disorders. Each question was answered on a scale from 0 (no, never) to 4 (all the time). The total score ranged from 0 to 80, with higher scores indicating more impact on the quality of life.

Change from Baseline in Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S) ScaleBaseline and at Weeks 20, 32 and 52

PGI-S is a 5 point scale that determines the bladder condition of a participant with 0 being really bad and 4 as really good. Higher score indicates better bladder condition.

Change from Baseline in average maximum catheterized daytime volumeBaseline and at Weeks 1, 4, 8, 20, 32, 48, and 52
Change from Baseline in average number of leakage episodes per dayBaseline and at Weeks 1, 4, 8, 20, 32, 48, and 52
Change from Baseline in estimated number of dry (leakage-free) days/ 7 daysBaseline and at Weeks 1, 4, 8, 20, 32, 48, and 52
