Sampling Method: | Probability Sample |
Inclusion Criteria:
- All patients from Study C4181005 who have completed Visits 1 through 11 (at D183) will be included in this project.
To construct a concurrent external control, patients from Study C4181001 will need to meet the following inclusion criteria from Study C4181005 to be eligible for inclusion:
- Documented, confirmed genetic diagnosis of achondroplasia from historical medical records (test must have been performed at a laboratory fully accredited for genetic testing under local regulations)
- Aged ≥ 3 months to <11 years (up to the day before 11th birthday inclusive) at time of enrollment into the observational natural history study.
- Havecompleted at least 2 valid height/length measurements (at least 3 months apart)
- Assessed for Tanner stage 1 during physical examination before or at enrollment (must include assessment of breast development for females, testicular stage for males)
- Able to stand independently for height measurements (if ≥ 2 years of age at enrollment); If aged <2 years at enrollment, has a documented historical MRI brain/cervical spine performed in the previous 12 months.
- Have at least 6 months of available follow-up data after enrollment into the natural history study
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Patients meeting any of the following criteria will not be included in the study:
- Presence of severe obesity (BMI>95% percentile on Hoover-Fong BMI charts);
- Body weight <7kg or >30kg
- History of chronic kidney disease (CKD) or renal impairment
- History of receipt of any treatment that are known to potentially affect growth (including oral steroids > 5 days in the last 6 months before enrollment, high dose inhaled corticosteroids (>800 mcg/day beclametasone equivalent) and medication for attention deficient hyperactivity disorder.
- Less than 6 months since fracture or surgical procedure of any bone determined from the baseline visit date.
- Presence of any internal guided growth plates/devices
- History of removal of internal guided growth plates/devices within 6 months prior to enrollment
