Age-specific information sheets, parent/guardian forms and assent forms are provided (documents listed for ages 5–6, 7–11, 12–17, parent/guardian and caregiver); translations available for country-specific languages (e.g., Polish, Italian, Spanish, German as per listed documents).
Inclusion criteria
- {"criterion_text":"- Patients ≥3 years of age at Screening."}
- {"criterion_text":"- Contraception requirements: a. All sexually active WOCBP (post menarche) must use highly effective contraception during the study and until 3 months after the last dose of study treatment b. Highly effective birth control methods include combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal, or transdermal); progestogen only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable, or implantable); intrauterine device; intrauterine hormone-releasing system; bilateral tubal occlusion; or vasectomized partner c. All sexually active male patients with WOCBP partners (post menarche) must use a condom with or without spermicide in addition to the birth control used by their partners during the study and until 3 months after the last dose of study treatment d. Sexual abstinence is considered a highly effective birth control method only if it is defined as refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the study and for 3 months after the last dose of study treatment for WOCBP and for male patients with WOCBP partners. The reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be evaluated by the Investigator in relation to the duration of the clinical study and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient"}
