- Safety and tolerability as measured by incidence of Adverse events (AEs), adverse drug reactions (ADRs), and treatment-emergent adverse events ([TEAEs]) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 96 ]
- Change from baseline to week 96 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 96 ]ALS Functional Rating Scale- Revised (ALSFRS-R). The ALSFRS-R is rating scale (ratings 0 = can't do, to 4 = normal ability) used to determine participants' assessment of their capability and independence in 12 functional activities.
- Time (days) to death, tracheostomy, or permanent assisted mechanical ventilation (>= 23 hours/day) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 96 ]
