Eligibility Criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria:
- Participant was >8 months of age at the time of dosing.
- Confirmation of LAL-D diagnosis as determined by the central laboratory or, for participants with prior hematopoietic stem cell transplant or liver transplant, historical enzyme activity or molecular genetic testing confirming a diagnosis of LAL-D.
Participants >8 months but <4 years of age at Screening had at least 1 of the following documented clinical manifestations of LAL-D:
- Dyslipidemia
- Elevated transaminases
- Impaired growth
- Suspected malabsorption
- Other clinical manifestation of LAL-D
Participants ≥4 years of age at Screening had at least 1 of the following documented clinical manifestations of LAL-D:
- Evidence of advanced liver disease
- Histologically confirmed disease recurrence in participants with past liver or hematopoietic transplant
- Persistent dyslipidemia
- Suspected malabsorption
- Other clinical manifestation of LAL-D
Key Exclusion Criteria:
- Participant had known causes of active liver disease other than LAL-D, which had not been adequately treated.
- Participant received a hematopoietic stem cell or liver transplant <2 years from the time of dosing.
- Participant with co-morbidities other than complications due to LAL-D, which were irreversible or associated with a high mortality risk within 6 months or would interfere with study compliance or data interpretation.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Sebelipase Alfa
Pediatric and adult participants initiated IV treatment with sebelipase alfa at a dose of 1 mg/kg qow. Participants were considered for a dose adjustment at the discretion of the Investigator and in consultation with the Sponsor. Dose escalation to 3 mg/kg qow was considered if pre-defined dose-escalation criteria were met. If these criteria continued to be met, a subsequent dose escalation to 3 mg/kg every week (qw) was considered. Dose decreases as low as 0.35 mg/kg qow were permitted based upon evidence of intolerance to sebelipase alfa treatment. Participants who completed the 96-week treatment period were permitted to continue receiving sebelipase alfa in an expanded treatment period for up to 48 weeks, pending local drug availability and study participation status.
