Long-term Study of Teduglutide in Pediatric Subjects With Short Bowel Syndrome Who Completed the TED-C13-003 Study

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. A SAE was any untoward medical occurrence (whether considered to be related to investigational product or not) that at any dose: results in death, was life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital abnormality/birth defect, was an important medical event. Number of participants with AEs, related AEs, serious adverse events (SAEs) and related SAEs of retrospective observation period were reported.

Height was measured using age Z-score. Z-score was calculated as (observed value - median value of the reference population) / standard deviation value of reference population. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (age greater than or equal to [>=] 2 years old) and World Health Organization (age less than [<] 2 years old) Z-score calculation charts are used for calculation. A negative Z-score indicates values lower than the mean while a positive Z-score indicates values higher than the mean. Change from baseline in height for age Z-score up to Week 168 of retrospective observation period was reported. Data for this outcome was not planned to be collected and analyzed in retrospective TED/TED group.

Body weight was measured using age Z-score. Z-score was calculated as (observed value - median value of the reference population) / standard deviation value of reference population. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (age >= 2 years old) and World Health Organization (age < 2 years old) Z-score calculation charts are used for calculation. A negative Z-score indicates values lower than the mean while a positive Z-score indicates values higher than the mean. Change from baseline in body weight for age Z-score up to Week 168 was reported. Data for this outcome was not planned to be collected and analyzed in retrospective TED/TED group.

BMI Z-score was calculated by using the retrospective height and weight data. Z-score was calculated as (observed value - median value of the reference population) / standard deviation value of reference population. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (age >= 2 years old) and World Health Organization (age < 2 years old) Z-score calculation charts are used for calculation. A negative Z-score indicates values lower than the mean while a positive Z-score indicates values higher than the mean. Change from baseline in height for age Z-score up to Week 168 of retrospective observation period was reported. Data for this outcome was not planned to be collected and analyzed in retrospective TED/TED group.

TEAEs are defined as AEs that started or worsened on or after the first dose of teduglutide treatment in the core study. A SAE was any untoward medical occurrence (whether considered to be related to investigational product or not) that at any dose: results in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital abnormality/birth defect, was an important medical event. AESI was an TEAE or TESAE of scientific and medical concern specific to the sponsor's product or program and for which ongoing monitoring and immediate notification by the investigator to the sponsor. Number of participants With TEAEs, treatment -emergent serious adverse events (TESAEs) and adverse events of special interest (AESI) of Prospective study period were reported.

PedsQL GCS was used for quality of life assessment. It encompasses 4 dimensions of functioning (physical, emotional, social, school). Age groups are: Toddler (2-4 years), Young child (5-7 years), Child (8-12 years), and Teens (13-18 years). Depending on the participants age, the questionnaire may be completed by either the participant or the parent/caregiver as appropriate. For the Toddler group, the PedsQL GCS consisted of 21 items, using a 5-point Likert scale (0 to 4); for all other groups, the PedsQL GCS consisted of 23 items, with a 3-point Likert scale (0, 2, 4) for the young child, and a 5-point Likert scale for the child and teens groups. Scores are transformed on a scale from 0 to 100 where 0=100, 1=75, 2=50, 3=25, and 4=0. Higher scores indicate improved quality of life.
