- Number of participants with clinically significant neurological examination abnormalities [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]
- Number of participants with clinically significant laboratory assessment abnormalities [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]
- Number of participants with clinically significant coagulation parameter abnormalities [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]
- Number of participants with clinically significant 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) abnormalities [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]
- Change from Baseline in concomitant medications [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]
- Percentage of participants who attained motor milestones as assessed by World Health Organization (WHO) criteria [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]
- Percentage of participants who attained motor milestones as assessed by Section 2 of Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE) [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]
- Time to death or permanent ventilation [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]
- Percentage of participants not requiring permanent ventilation [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]
- Change from Baseline in the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Infant Test of Neuromuscular Disorders (CHOP INTEND) motor function scale [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]CHOP-INTEND tests includes 16 items structured to move from easiest to hardest with the grading including gravity eliminated (lower scores) to antigravity movements (higher scores). All item scores range from 0-4.
- Change from Baseline in Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]The HFMSE tests motor function of participants with SMA. The original 20 item Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale was expanded to include 13 additional adapted items from the Gross Motor Function Measure to improve sensitivity for the higher functioning ambulant population.

- Change from Baseline in Compound Muscular Action Potential (CMAP) [ Time Frame: Up to Day 1814 ]CMAP is an electrophysiological technique that can be used to determine the approximate number of motor neurons in a muscle or group of muscles.

Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Key Inclusion Criteria:
- Signed informed consent of parent or guardian and signed informed assent of participant, if indicated per participant's age and institutional guidelines.
- Completion of the index study in accordance with the study protocol or as a result of Sponsor decision (e.g., early termination of the index study) within the preceding 16 weeks
Key Exclusion Criteria:
- Have any condition or worsening condition which in the opinion of the Investigator would make the participant unsuitable for enrollment, or could interfere with the participant participating in or completing the study
- Clinically significant abnormalities in hematology or clinical chemistry parameters or electrocardiogram (ECG), as assessed by the Site Investigator, at the Screening visit that would render the participant unsuitable for participation in the study
- Participant's parent or legal guardian is not willing or able to meet standard of care guidelines (including vaccinations and respiratory syncytial virus prophylaxis if available), nor provide nutritional and respiratory support throughout the study
- Treatment with another investigational agent, biological agent, or device within one month of Screening, or 5 half-lives of study agent, whichever is longer
NOTE: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
