    Change From Baseline in Lumbar Spine (LS) Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Z-Score up to End of Study (EOS) (Week 103) [1]
    End point description
    BMD of the LS was measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and the result was converted to Z-scores appropriate for age, sex, and race. The Z-score indicated the number of standard deviations away from a reference population in the same age range, race and with the same sex. A Z-score of 0 was equal to the mean. Negative numbers indicated values lower than the mean and positive numbers indicated values higher than the mean. Baseline was defined as last data collected prior to the first administration of study drug. Change from baseline in lumbar spine BMD Z-Score up to EOS (Week 103) was reported. Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population was defined as all enrolled subjects who received at least one study drug infusion (full or partial).

    Overall fatigue was measured by the BFI. BFI was a 9-item questionnaire developed to assess subjective fatigue. Each question asked the respondent to rate the level of their experienced fatigue over the past 24 hours on an 11- point (0-10) scale. First 3 questions-fatigue severity at current, usual, and worst levels, with 0-"no fatigue" and 10-“fatigue”. Next 6 questions-level fatigue interference with daily activities included general activity, mood, walking ability, normal work (both inside and outside the home), relations with other people, and enjoyment of life. A score ranged from 0="no interference" and 10="complete interference. Overall fatigue score was calculated as average score of all 9 items on the BFI ranging from 0="no fatigue" to 10="as bad as you can imagine”.

    Number of Subjects With Shift in World Health Organization (WHO) BMD Classifications Based on LS T-Scores at Week 51 and EOS (Week 103)
    End point description
    WHO BMD Classifications (Normal Bone Density, Osteopenia, Osteoporosis), bone mineral density was classified based on LS BMD T-scores. BMD T-score was a comparison of an individual's BMD compared to "normal". Also, BMD T-score is the standard deviation of the difference between measured BMD and that of the healthy young adult "normal". The T-score scale was as follows: -1 and above=normal, -1 to -2.5 = osteopenia (below normal and may lead to osteoporosis), and -2.5 and below=osteoporosis. Number of subjects with shift in WHO BMD classifications based on LS T-Scores at Week 51 and EOS (Week 103) were reported. ITT Population was defined as all enrolled subjects who received at least one study drug infusion (full or partial). Here, "number of subjects analysed" signifies subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint and “number analysed” signifies subjects who were evaluable at specific time point.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    14 Sep 2015
    Protocol Amendment 1: -Added details about emergency contact information. -Updated the details in exploratory objectives endpoints. -Added new section about home infusion of VPRIV. -Updated safety language to bring it into alignment with Shire standard language.
    02 Jun 2016
    Protocol Amendment 2: -Added information that all subjects will receive “600 IU 25 hydroxyvitamin D (oral) daily” as concomitant medication. -Changed the evaluation of primary endpoint from 12 months to 24 months. -Changed the evaluation of secondary endpoint from 24 months to 12 months. -Timepoints for measurements of hemoglobin cocentration and platelet count were changed to baseline and weeks 13, 25, 37, 51, 65, 77, 89, and 103 (end of study). -Clarified biomarkers for analysis. -Revised age range to ≥18 and ≤65 years of age. -Updated emergency contact information. -Added specific guidance for contraception.
    06 Jul 2016
    Protocol Amendment 3: -The minimum age for inclusion had been changed to 18 years; therefore, informed consent by parents was eliminated. -Added “HBsAg, HCV, HIV, and 25 hydroxyvitamin D blood test” as a safety laboratory tests to be performed at screening. -Changed the assessment of primary efficacy endpoint at the baseline visit to occur at the screening visit instead.
    04 May 2017
    Protocol Amendment 4: -The dose of Vitamin D was revised from 600 IU to 800 IU. -The subject age range for the enrollment in the study was increased from ≥18 and ≤65 to ≥18 and ≤70 years. -The definition of IRR was updated to match the definition in summary of product characteristics. -The assessments of BMB and LS BMD Z score were eliminated at Week 25 and Week 77 to ease subject burden as data from these visits will not be used in the determination of any endpoints. -Added criterion of BMD T-score to facilitate enrollment after consideration of this measure as an appropriate alternative to BMD Z-score. -Deleted “Change in the quadriceps cross sectional area and measures of relevance to determine lean muscle mass are additional exploratory endpoints.” as the proper imaging modality for its measurement was not being performed and MRI was no longer considered to be an adequate measure. -The window of study procedures was changed to ±7 days to allow for subject rescheduling and to facilitate protocol execution.--
    26 Jul 2018
    Protocol Amendment 5: -The number of subjects planned for enrollment was reduced from approximately 40 subjects to at least 19 subjects. -The number of expected evaluable subjects was decreased from 34 subjects to 13 subjects. -The key secondary objectives were re-classified as secondary objectives. -The BMB scoring was changed to follow the DeMayo et al. method instead of the Maas et al. method. -The power provided by the sample size for the detection of change in the primary endpoint was changed from 99% to 90%. -The early subject discontinuation rate previously estimated at 15% was revised to 30%. -Viral testing was removed from the list of screening visit assessments.
    02 Oct 2020
    Protocol Amendment 6: - Two new objectives and endpoints were added. Objective: * BMD as measured by the change from baseline in g/cm2 after 12 months of treatment. * BMD as measured by the change from baseline in g/cm2 after 24 months of treatment. Endpoints: * Change from baseline to 12 months (Week 51) in BMD reported as g/cm2. Assessments will be performed at the screening visit and Weeks 51. * Change from baseline to 24 months (Week 103 [end of study]) in BMD reported as g/cm2. Assessments will be performed at the screening visit and Week 103 (end of study) - The Brief Pain Inventory – Short Form was updated to “Questions taken from the BPI-SF©” - Added the optional transfer of study visit weeks 77 and/or 89 to home therapy and the addition of dose continuation infusions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. - Added that infusion of VPRIV may be delivered intravenously with an in-line sterilizing filter that has a rated pore size of 0.22 micrometer (mcm).
