SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

Outcome Measure Data Table shows change of North Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA) score at 6 months versus baseline in each arm. The Statistical Analysis section shows the 6-month difference between the 2 arms (control minus IGF-1). The NSAA is a 17-item scale that grades performance of various functional skills on a scale from 0 (unable), 1 (complete independently but with modifications), and 2 (complete without compensation). The range of NSAA score is from 0 to 34. The higher score indicates better motor function.
