Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of Risdiplam in adult and pediatric participants with Type 2 and Type 3 SMA. The study consists of two parts, an exploratory dose finding part (Part 1) of Risdiplam for 12 weeks and a confirmatory part (Part 2) of Risdiplam for 24 months.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Part 1 Group A: Adolescents and Adults (Risdiplam)

Adolescent and adult participants aged 12-25 years will receive risdiplam for at least 12 weeks. Once the placebo-controlled period is completed and Part 2 dose is selected, participants will be switched to Part 2 dose and will be treated in an open-label phase.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Risdiplam

Intervention Type DRUG

Risdiplam will be administered orally (via mouth) or through a feeding tube (naso-gastric or gastrostomy tube).

Part 1 Group A: Adolescents and Adults (Placebo)

Adolescent and adult participants aged 12-25 years will receive placebo matching to risdiplam for at least 12 weeks. Once placebo-controlled period is completed, participants will be first switched to their cohort risdiplam dose. After the Part 2 dose is selected, participants will be switched to Part 2 dose and will be treated in an open-label phase.

Placebo

Intervention Type DRUG

Risdiplam

Intervention Type DRUG

Risdiplam will be administered orally (via mouth) or through a feeding tube (naso-gastric or gastrostomy tube).

Part 1 Group B: Children (Placebo)

Children aged 2-11 years will receive placebo matching to risdiplam for at least 12 weeks. Once placebo-controlled period is completed, participants will be first switched to their cohort risdiplam dose. After the Part 2 dose is selected, participants will be switched to Part 2 dose and will be treated in an open-label phase.

Part 2: Placebo

Participants aged 2-25 years will receive placebo matching to risdiplam for 12 months. After 12 months of treatment with placebo, participants will be switched to risdiplam (5 mg once daily for participants with a body weight (BW) \>/=20kg or 0.25 mg/kg for participants with a BW \<20) in a blinded manner and participants will continue with treatment until Month 24. After Month 24, participants will be offered the opportunity to enter the open-label phase.
