Change From Baseline in Neuropathy Impairment Score-lower Limb (NIS-LL) Total Score at Week 72 Primary · Baseline, Week 72

NIS-LL: assess muscle weakness, reflexes, sensation; scored separately for left and right limbs. Components of muscle weakness (hip and knee flexion, hip and knee extension, ankle dorsiflexors, ankle plantar flexors, toe extensors, toe flexors) scored on scale 0 (normal) to 4 (paralysis), higher score=greater weakness. Components of reflexes (quadriceps femoris, triceps surae); sensation (touch pressure, pin-prick, vibration, joint position) scored 0 = normal, 1 = decreased, or 2 = absent. Total possible NIS-LL score range 0-88, high score = more impairment. Components of muscle weakness are s

BMI is calculated by weight divided by height squared and measured as kilogram per square meter (kg/m\^2). mBMI is calculated by multiplying BMI by serum albumin levels \[gram/liter (g/L)\]. mBMI is measured as kg/m\^2\*g/L. A progressive decline in mBMI indicates worsening of disease severity.

The SF-36 is a participant administered scale assessing general quality of life. It consists of self-administered 36-item questionnaire that measured 8 health domains: physical function, role-physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social function, role-emotional, and mental health. These 8 domains are also summarized as physical and mental component scores. The score for each domain and component score is the mean of the individual question scores, which are scaled from 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum), where high scores in each dimension and high overall scores indicate a better quality

EQ-5D-5L: standardized participant (aged \>17 years) completed questionnaire consists of 2 components: a health state profile and an optional VAS. EQ-5D health state profile has 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: 1= no problems, 2= slight problems, 3= moderate problems, 4= severe problems, and 5= extreme problems. Responses to 5 dimensions comprise a health state/a single utility index value. E.g. if a participant responds "no problems" for each 5 dimensions, then health state was coded as "11111" with a pr
