Arm Description

Adolescent and adult participants aged 12-25 years will receive risdiplam for at least 12 weeks. Once the placebo-controlled period is completed and Part 2 dose is selected, participants will be switched to Part 2 dose and will be treated in an open-label phase.

Adolescent and adult participants aged 12-25 years will receive placebo matching to risdiplam for at least 12 weeks. Once placebo-controlled period is completed, participants will be first switched to their cohort risdiplam dose. After the Part 2 dose is selected, participants will be switched to Part 2 dose and will be treated in an open-label phase.

Children aged 2-11 years will receive placebo matching to risdiplam for at least 12 weeks. Once placebo-controlled period is completed, participants will be first switched to their cohort risdiplam dose. After the Part 2 dose is selected, participants will be switched to Part 2 dose and will be treated in an open-label phase.

Children aged 2-11 years will receive risdiplam for at least 12 weeks. Once the placebo-controlled period is completed and Part 2 dose is selected, participants will be switched to Part 2 dose and will be treated in an open-label phase.

Participants aged 2-25 years will receive placebo matching to risdiplam for 12 months. After 12 months of treatment with placebo, participants will be switched to risdiplam (5 mg once daily for participants with a body weight (BW) >/=20kg or 0.25 mg/kg for participants with a BW <20) in a blinded manner and participants will continue with treatment until Month 24. After Month 24, participants will be offered the opportunity to enter the open-label phase.

Participants aged 2-25 years will receive risdiplam at the dose selected based on the results from Part 1 of the study (5 mg once daily for participants with a body weight (BW) >/=20kg or 0.25 mg/kg for participants with a BW <20 kg), for 24 months. After 24-month treatment, participants will be offered the opportunity to enter the open-label phase.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Part 1: Selected Part 2 Dose of Risdiplam for Participants With a Body Weight (BW) of >/=20kg
The Internal Monitoring Committee (IMC) was responsible for selecting the dose for Part 2 of the study (pivotal dose). An external Independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) reviewed data from Part 1 and confirmed the dose-selection decision of the IMC. The dose for Part 2 selected by the IMC was a dose that: 1.Was judged to be safe and well-tolerated, based on all available safety data from Part 1 and as confirmed by the iDMC; 2. Resulted in an exposure at steady-state below the exposure cap (mean value) of AUC0-24h,ss 2000 ng*h/mL (adjusted for free-fraction, if required); 3. Resulted in an SMN protein increase that was expected to be clinically relevant.

Part 2: Change From Baseline in the Total Motor Function Measure 32 (MFM-32) Total Score at Month 12
The Motor Function Measure 32 (MFM32) is a scale constructed for use in neuromuscular disorders. It comprises 32 items that evaluate physical function in three dimensions: D1 function related to standing and transfer; D2 axial and proximal function; D3 distal motor function. Tasks are scored with a 4-point Likert scale: 0 - cannot initiate the task or maintain the starting position; 1 - performs the task partially; 2 - performs the task incompletely or imperfectly; 3 - performs the task fully and "normally". The 32 scores are summed and expressed on a 0-100 scale for the MFM32 total score. Higher scores indicate increased motor function. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement. MMRM analysis was performed based on primary efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Part 2: Percentage of Participants With Marked Improvement (Defined as >= 3) in the Total Motor Function Measure (MFM32) Score at Month 12
The MFM32 comprises 32 items that evaluate physical function. The scoring of each task uses a 4-point Likert scale: 0 - cannot initiate the task or maintain the starting position; 1 - performs the task partially; 2 - performs the task incompletely or imperfectly; 3 - performs the task fully and "normally". The 32 scores are summed and expressed on a 0-100 scale for the MFM32 total score. A change in MFM32 total score of threshold >/=3 represents marked improvement in this measure. Logistic regression analysis was performed based on efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.
Part 2: Change From Baseline in the Total Score of the Revised Upper Limb Module (RULM) at Month 12
The RULM is a 20 items scale that assesses the proximal and distal motor functions of the arm. There is an entry item and the remaining 18 items are scored on the 3 point scale of: 0: cannot complete task independently; 1: modified method but can complete task independently; 2: completes task without any assistance, and with 1 item scored on a 2 point scale of as a can/cannot score with 1 as the highest score. The RULM total score is the sum of 19 items scores with range of 0-37, and the entry item does not contribute to the total score. Higher scores indicate greater upper limb function. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement. MMRM analysis was performed based on the efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.
Part 2: Change From Baseline in Total Score of Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale Expanded (HFMSE) at Month 12

The HFMSE contains a series of assessments designed to assess important functional abilities, including standing, transfers, ambulation, and proximal and axial function. The overall score is the sum of the scores for all activities with a maximum achievable score of 66. Higher scores indicate greater motor function. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement. MMRM analysis was performed based on the efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.
Part 2: Change From Baseline in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) at Month 12 in Participants Aged 6-25 Years
Spirometry is a pulmonary function test that assesses how the lungs work by measuring how much air moves through the airways. Spirometry was performed by all participants aged 6 or older. Forced vital capacity (FVC) is the total volume that can be exhaled after inhaling maximally. The best % predicted value out of all attempts were used for the analysis. MMRM analysis was performed based on the efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.
Part 2: Change From Baseline in the Caregiver-Reported SMA Independence Scale (SMAIS) Total Score at Month 12
The SMA Independence Scale (SMAIS) was developed specifically for SMA participants in order to assess function-related independence. The SMAIS contains 29 items, assessing the amount of assistance required from another individual to perform daily activities such as eating, or bathing. Each item is scored on a 0-4 scale (with an additional option to indicate that an item is non-applicable). The SMAIS total score ranging from 0-44 is obtained based on 22 items with each item on the 0-2 scale. Lower scores indicate greater dependence on another individual. The SMAIS was completed by participants aged 12 years or older and caregivers of participants aged 2-25 years. MMRM analysis was performed based on efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.
Part 2: Percentage of Participants Rated by Clinicians as Improved in the Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) Scale Ratings at Month 12
The Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) is used to score a clinician's impression of a participant's change in global health. The CGI-C is a single item measure of change in global health, using seven response options: "very much improved", "much improved", "minimally improved", "no change", "minimally worse", "much worse", and "very much worse". Participants considered as "improved" included responses of "very much improved, "much improved" and "minimally improved".

Each item is scored on a 0-4 scale (with an additional option to indicate that an item is non-applicable). The SMAIS total score ranging from 0-44 is obtained based on 22 items with each item on the 0-2 scale. Lower scores indicate greater dependence on another individual. The SMAIS was completed by participants aged 12 years or older and caregivers of participants aged 2-25 years. MMRM analysis was performed based on efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.
Part 2: Percentage of Participants Rated by Clinicians as No Change or Improved in the Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) Scale Ratings at Month 12
The CGI-C is used to score a clinician's impression of a participant's change in global health. It is a single item measure of change in global health, using seven response options: "very much improved", "much improved", "minimally improved", "no change", "minimally worse", "much worse", and "very much worse".

Part 2: Percentage of Participants Who Experience at Least One Disease-Related Adverse Event at Month 12
Disease-related adverse events (AEs) were identified by applying two different types of baskets to the AE dataset: Narrow prospectively defined baskets of MedDRA lowest level terms. This basket was defined based on a group of CDC terms selected from an age and gender matched case control study comparing CDC code rates observed in participants with and without SMA using commercially available insurance claim data (CLAIMS and Market scan data). The lowest level terms included in each basket, coded using the latest version of MedDRA; Broad prospectively defined basket with events selected at preferred term level from all AEs reported in ongoing clinical trials up to January 2019, i.e., prior to unblinding of Part 2 of Study BP39055.
Part 2: Number of Disease-related Adverse Events Per Patient-years at Month 12
Disease-related AEs were collected through the AE reporting of the study, and the disease-related AE rate was adjusted for patient years (AE rate per 100 patient-years). They were identified by applying two different types of baskets to the AE dataset: Narrow prospectively defined baskets of MedDRA lowest level terms and Broad prospectively defined basket with events selected at preferred term level from all AEs reported in ongoing clinical trials up to January 2019, i.e., prior to unblinding of Part 2 of Study BP39055.
Part 1: Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events.
Part 2: Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in the Placebo-Controlled Period
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events.
Part 2: Percentage of Participants With Treatment Discontinuation Due to Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in the Placebo-Controlled Period
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events.
Part 2: Number of Participants Aged 6-25 Years With Suicidal Ideation Based on Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) in the Placebo-Controlled Period
The Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) is used to assess the lifetime suicidality of a participant (C-SSRS baseline) as well as any new instances of suicidality (C-SSRS since last visit). The structured interview prompts recollection of suicidal ideation, including the intensity of the ideation, behavior, and attempts with actual/potential lethality. The C-SSRS assessments results were collected for participants aged 6 years and older.
Part 2: Number of Participants Aged 6-25 Years With Suicidal Behavior Based on Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) in the Placebo-Controlled Period
The Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) is used to assess the lifetime suicidality of a participant (C-SSRS baseline) as well as any new instances of suicidality (C-SSRS since last visit). The structured interview prompts recollection of suicidal ideation, including the intensity of the ideation, behavior, and attempts with actual/potential lethality.

Part 2: Change From Baseline in the Total Motor Function Measure 32 (MFM-32) Total Score at Month 12
Description
The Motor Function Measure 32 (MFM32) is a scale constructed for use in neuromuscular disorders. It comprises 32 items that evaluate physical function in three dimensions: D1 function related to standing and transfer; D2 axial and proximal function; D3 distal motor function. Tasks are scored with a 4-point Likert scale: 0 - cannot initiate the task or maintain the starting position; 1 - performs the task partially; 2 - performs the task incompletely or imperfectly; 3 - performs the task fully and "normally". The 32 scores are summed and expressed on a 0-100 scale for the MFM32 total score. Higher scores indicate increased motor function. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement. MMRM analysis was performed based on primary efficacy hypothetical estimand, which included participants data assuming no prohibited medication intended for treatment of SMA was received and participants continued on their randomized treatment until the analysis time point at Month 12.
