Prospective Clinical Assessment Study in Children With Achondroplasia (ACH)

This is a long-term, multi-center, observational study in children 2.5 to 10 years with achondroplasia (ACH). The objective is to evaluate growth, ACH-related medical complications and treatments of study participants. No study medication will be administered.

• Aged 2.5 to 10 years (inclusive) at study entry
• Diagnosis of ACH
• Ambulatory and able to stand without assistance
• Study participants and parent(s) or LAR(s) are willing and able to comply with study visits and study procedures
Exclusion Criteria:

• Have hypochondroplasia or short stature condition other than ACH (e.g trisomy 21, pseudoachondroplasia, psychosocial short stature)
• In females, having had their menarche
• Height < -2 or > +2 standard deviations for age and sex based on reference tables on growth in children with ACH
• Annualized height growth velocity ≤1.5 cm/year over a period ≥6 months prior to screening
• Have a concurrent disease or condition that in the view of the Investigator and/or Sponsor, may impact growth or where the treatment is known to impact growth.
• Significant abnormality in screening laboratory results.
• Have been treated with growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF 1), or anabolic steroids in the previous 6 months or long-term treatment (>3 months) at any time
• Have received a C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) analog or treatment targeting fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibition at any time
• Have had regular long-term treatment (>1 month) with oral corticosteroids (low-dose ongoing inhaled steroid for asthma is acceptable)
• Have used any other investigational product or investigational medical device for the treatment of ACH or short stature
• Have had previous limb-lengthening surgery

Study of Nusinersen (BIIB058) in Participants With Spinal Muscular Atrophy (DEVOTE)

The primary objectives of this study are to examine the clinical efficacy of nusinersen administered intrathecally at higher doses to participants with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), as measured by change in Children's Hospital of Philadelphia-Infant Test of Neuromuscular Disorders (CHOP-INTEND) total score (Part B); to examine the safety and tolerability of nusinersen administered intrathecally at higher doses to participants with SMA (Parts A and C). The secondary objectives of this study are to examine the clinical efficacy of nusinersen administered intrathecally at higher doses to participants with SMA (Parts A, B and C); to examine the effect of nusinersen administered intrathecally at higher doses to participants with SMA (Parts A and C); to examine the safety and tolerability of nusinersen administered intrathecally at higher doses to participants with SMA, to examine the effect of nusinersen administered intrathecally at higher doses compared to the currently approved dose in participants with SMA (Part B).
