Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPlasma Methylmalonic Acid (MMacid) LevelsBaseline and Day 28 and Day 29 (last day of dosing) of Cycles 1 and 2
Normal plasma MMacid level is \<0.27 micromole/liters (umol/L). Plasma samples for MMacid levels were collected after a 2- to 4-hour fast. Plasma MMacid levels were measured by a standard gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) stable-isotope dilution method. Individual participant values in plasma MMacid levels at Baseline and end-to-treatment (Day 28 and Day 29 \[last day of dosing\]) in each cycle were recorded.
SecondaryUrinary MMacid LevelsBaseline and Day 28 and Day 29 (last day of dosing) of Cycles 1 and 2
The normal urinary MMacid level is \<4 millimole/mole (mmol/mol) creatinine. Urinary samples for MMacid levels were collected after a 2- to 4-hour fast. Urinary MMacid levels were measured by a standard GC/MS stable-isotope dilution method.
SecondaryPlasma Propionylcarnitine LevelsBaseline and Day 28 and Day 29 (last day of dosing) of Cycles 1 and 2
Plasma samples for propionylcarnitine levels were evaluated to detect disease activity. The level of propionylcarnitine was measured using gas chromatography and LC/MS-MS. An increase in propionylcarnitine values indicates greater disease activity.
SecondaryUrine Methylcitric Acid LevelsBaseline and Day 28 and Day 29 (last day of dosing) of Cycles 1 and 2Urine methylcitric acid levels were evaluated to detect disease activity. An increase in methylcitric acid values indicates greater disease activity.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)Baseline up to Day 112 (end of study follow-up)
An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that develops or worsens in severity during the conduct of a clinical study and does not necessarily have a causal relationship to the study drug. Severity was rated by the Investigator on a scale of mild, moderate and severe, with severe as an AE that prevents usual activities. Relationship of AE to treatment was determined by the Investigator. Serious AEs include death, a life-threatening AE, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event that jeopardized the participant and required medical intervention to prevent the previously listed serious outcomes. A summary of other non-serious AEs and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Potentially Clinically Significant Laboratory (Hematology and Biochemistry) Abnormal ResultsBaseline up to Day 112 (end of study follow-up)
Hematological and biochemistry data graded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) severity grade (Grade 1 \[mild\], Grade 2 \[moderate\], Grade 3 \[severe\], Grade 4 \[life-threatening\], or Grade 5 \[fatal\]). Life-threatening (Grade 4) or severe (Grade 3) laboratory abnormalities were considered clinically significant. Recurrent or persistent moderate (Grade 2) abnormalities were also considered clinically significant in certain circumstances. Hematology assessments: white blood cell count with differential, hemoglobin, hematocrit, other red cell parameters, and platelet count. Biochemistry assessments: sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, uric acid, glucose, total protein, albumin, bilirubin (direct and indirect), aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, glutamyl transferase, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, total cholesterol, and triglycerides.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With a Metabolic Decompensation EpisodeBaseline up to Day 112 (end of study follow-up)A metabolic decompensation episode is characterized by vomiting, hypotonia, and alteration of consciousness associated with metabolic acidosis and hyperammonemia.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Compliant With Study TreatmentBaseline up to Day 29 of Cycles 1 and 2
For each participant, compliance was described in terms of the proportion of drug actually taken relative to the amount that should have been taken during the time the participant was on study (both Cycle 1 and Cycle 2).
SecondaryAtaluren Plasma Exposure
Baseline on Day 0 of Cycles 1 and 2 [0 (predose), 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours postdose of the morning dose and 0 (predose) of the midday dose]; Day 28 of Cycles 1 and 2 [0 (predose), 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours postdose of the morning, midday, and evening doses]
Validated quantitative methods employing high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectroscopy (HPLC-MS-MS) were used to determine plasma concentrations of unchanged ataluren. The median and full range of the total of all of the ataluren plasma concentrations collected at Baseline and at Day 28 are reported.
