Primary outcomes

  1. All Cohorts: Number of Participants With at Least One Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, Related TEAEs and TEAEs With Severity Greater Than or Equal to Grade 3

    Time frame: Up to 197 weeks

    A clinical adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the study drug. TEAEs are AEs with an initial onset date during the on-treatment period or worsening from baseline and include both serious and non-serious TEAEs. Severity of AEs was evaluated using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE; Version 4.03): grade 1: mild; grade 2: moderate; grade 3: severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; grade 4: life threatening or disabling; grade 5: death related to AE.

  2. All Cohorts: Number of Participants With TEAEs Leading to Dose Reduction, Treatment Interruption and Treatment Discontinuation

    Time frame: Up to 197 weeks

    A clinical AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the study drug. TEAEs are AEs with an initial onset date during the on-treatment period or worsening from baseline and include both serious and non-serious TEAEs. Number of participants with TEAEs leading to dose reduction, treatment interruption and treatment discontinuation are reported.

  3. All Cohorts: Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Laboratory Parameters Reported as Grade Greater Than or Equal to (≥)3 TEAEs

    Time frame: Up to 197 weeks

    Clinical laboratory assessments including hematology, clinical chemistry, triglycerides, urate, coagulation, urinalysis, and liver function tests were performed in the study. Clinically significant treatment-emergent laboratory abnormalities were graded according to the NCI CTCAE; Version 4.03: grade 1: mild; grade 2: moderate; grade 3: severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; grade 4: life threatening or disabling; grade 5: death related to AE. Clinical significance was determined based on the judgment of the Investigator.

  4. All Cohorts: Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Vital Signs Measurements and Physical Examinations Reported as TEAEs

    Time frame: Up to 197 weeks

    Vital signs and physical examinations including height, weight, body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, temperature were assessed. Number of participants who experienced clinically significant abnormalities in vital signs and physical examinations as TEAEs were reported.

    BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans during the study. Number of participants with clinically significant abnormalities were reported. Clinical significance was determined based on the judgment of the Investigator.

  6. All Cohorts: Change From Baseline in Adjusted Spine T-score

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 192

    T-score of adjusted spine were assessed by DXA scans. The T-score is the number of standard deviations that bone density is above or below the average. A score of ≥ -1 indicates normal bone density; score between < -1 and > -2.5 indicates a sign of osteopenia (bone density below normal), and score of ≤ -2.5 indicates a sign of osteoporosis.

  7. All Cohorts: Change From Baseline in Adjusted Spine Z-score

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 192

    The Z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a value was above or below the standard. A Z-score of 0 is equal to the standard. Lower numbers indicate values lower than the standard and higher numbers indicate values higher than the standard.

  8. All Cohorts: Change From Baseline in Femoral Total T-score

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 192

    T-score of femoral total were assessed by DXA scans. The T-score is the number of standard deviations that bone density is above or below the average. A score of ≥ -1 indicates normal bone density; score between < -1 and > -2.5 indicates a sign of osteopenia (bone density below normal), and score of ≤ -2.5 indicates a sign of osteoporosis.

  9. All Cohorts: Change From Baseline in Femoral Total Z-score

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 192

    The Z-score is a statistical measure to describe whether a value was above or below the standard. A Z-score of 0 is equal to the standard. Lower numbers indicate values lower than the standard and higher numbers indicate values higher than the standard.

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 24

    The PKDD is a validated, daily 7-item PRO instrument with a recall period of 24 hours that measures the core signs and symptoms associated with pyruvate kinase deficiency in adults. The symptoms include tiredness, jaundice, bone pain, shortness of breath, and energy level. PKDD daily scores were calculated based on the participant's response to the PKDD questionnaire. Score ranges from 25 to 76, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms and a higher disease burden. The change from baseline in weekly mean scores was summarized. A negative change from baseline indicates a lower disease burden. Baseline of weekly mean score was defined as average of daily scores collected within 7 days before start of study treatment (mitapivat). For Cohort 1, last measurement before the start of study treatment in AG348-C-011 was used as baseline; if baseline was missing, then baseline value from AG348-C-006 was used. For Cohorts 2 & 3 baseline values from -006 and-007, respectively, were used.

  18. All Cohorts: Change From Baseline in HRQoL PRO Scores: Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency Impact Assessment (PKDIA)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 24

    PKDIA is a 12-item PRO measure of common impacts of PK deficiency on activities of daily living. Participants rated how PK deficiency has impacted aspects of daily living in past 7 days, including impacts on relationships & leisure and social, mental, and physical activities. PKDIA score at each visit was based on 8 items that were retained after in-trial psychometric validation and calculated at each visit based on participant's response to PKDIA questionnaire. Score ranges from 30 to 76, with higher scores indicating higher disease burden. Negative change from baseline indicates lower disease burden. Baseline was defined as the last complete assessment (with no missing item in response) before start of study treatment. For Cohort 1, last measurement before start of study treatment in AG348-C-011 was used as baseline; if baseline was missing, then baseline value from AG348-C-006 was used. For Cohorts 2 and 3, the baseline values from 006 and 007, respectively, were used.
