  1. Data are mean (SD) unless otherwise specified. Baseline is Day 1 of the study or the last measurement prior to short-term dose. Cohort 2 included all patients aged 2–5 years. Minor differences between the data for total cohort 2 and those for the participated patients and patients who did not participate in the substudy are due to the different dates of database lock (participated patients and patients who did not participate: July 2, 2018; total cohort 2: February 16, 2017)
