Recruitment Details A total of 291 participants were screened for eligibility, of which 61 participants did not meet entry criteria.
Pre-assignment Details A total of 230 eligible participants were randomized in 1:1 ratio to receive either placebo or ataluren. 2 participants, 1 in each treatment arm, were excluded from intent-to-treat (ITT) population; as they did not have at least 1 valid post-baseline 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) value, a requirement for inclusion in ITT population.
Arm/Group Title Placebo Ataluren
Hide Arm/Group Description Participants received placebo matched to ataluren orally 3 times a day (TID) at morning, midday, and evening for 48 weeks. Participants received ataluren suspension orally TID, 10 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg) at morning, 10 mg/kg at midday, and 20 mg/kg at evening (total daily dose 40 mg/kg) for 48 weeks.

Measure Description: The 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) test is a non-encouraged test performed in a 30 meters long flat corridor, where the participant is instructed to walk as far as possible, back and forth around two cones, with the permission to slow down, rest, or stop if needed. Ambulation was assessed via the 6MWD test following standardized procedures by measuring the 6MWD in meters. Participants were not permitted to use assistive devices (walker, long leg braces, or short leg braces) during the 6MWD test.

Measure Description: NSAA comprised tests of 17 abilities, such as ability to stand, rise from floor, get from lying to sitting, get from sitting to standing, raise one's head, stand on one's heels, hop, jump, and run. For each activity, a score of 0, 1, or 2 was recorded, with 0 = "unable to achieve independently," 1 = "modified method but achieves goal independent of physical assistance from another," or 2 = "normal- achieves goal without any assistance." Sum of these 17 scores was reported as ordinal total score, which can be transformed to a linear total score from 0 (worst) to 100 (best).

1.Primary Outcome
Title Change From Baseline in 6MWD at Week 48
Hide Description The 6MWD test is a non-encouraged test performed in a 30 meters long flat corridor, where the participant is instructed to walk as far as possible, back and forth around two cones, with the permission to slow down, rest, or stop if needed. Ambulation was assessed via the 6MWD test following standardized procedures by measuring the 6MWD in meters. Participants were not permitted to use assistive devices (walker, long leg braces, or short leg braces) during the 6MWD test. Participants with confirmed loss of ambulation at a particular visit were assigned a 6MWD result of 0. Baseline and Week 48 6MWD values are each the average of two valid 6MWD values, or a single available value if one was missing.

2.Secondary Outcome
Title Time to 10 Percent (%) Persistent Worsening in 6MWD
Hide Description The 6MWD test is a non-encouraged test performed in a 30 meters long flat corridor, where the participant is instructed to walk as far as possible, back and forth around two cones, with the permission to slow down, rest, or stop if needed. Ambulation was assessed via the 6MWD test following standardized procedures by measuring the 6MWD in meters. Participants were not permitted to use assistive devices (walker, long leg braces, or short leg braces) during the 6MWD test. Time to 10% persistent worsening in 6MWD was defined as the last time that 6MWD was not 10% worse compared with baseline. Time to 10% persistent worsening in 6MWD <300 meters, >=300 to 400 meters, and >=400 meters was evaluated. For participants who did not have 10% 6MWD worsening or who were removed from study, time to 10% 6MWD worsening was censored at the time of the last 6MWD test. Participants who became non-ambulatory were considered to have 10% worsening.

3.Secondary Outcome
Title Change From Baseline in Time to Walk/Run 10 Meters at Week 48
Hide Description During the test for walking/running 10 meters, the method of walk/run used by the participant was categorized as follows: 1. Unable to walk independently; 2. Unable to walk independently but can walk with support from a person or with assistive device (full leg calipers [knee-ankle-foot orthoses ] or walker); 3. Highly adapted gait, wide-based lordotic gait, cannot increase walking speed; 4. Moderately adapted gait, can pick up speed but cannot run; 5. Able to pick up speed but runs with a double stance phase (that is, cannot achieve both feet off the ground); 6. Runs and gets both feet off the ground (with no double stance phase). If the time taken to perform a test exceeded 30 seconds or if a participant could not perform the test due to disease progression, a value of 30 seconds was used. A cumulative change from baseline data has been reported.

Title Change From Baseline in Physical Function Total Score as Measured by NSAA at Week 48
Hide Description Physical function was assessed via the NSAA, a functional scale specifically designed for ambulant Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) participants. The assessment comprised tests for 17 abilities of a participant, such as ability to stand, rise from the floor, get from lying to sitting, get from sitting to standing, raise one's head, stand on one's heels, hop, jump, and run. For each activity, a score of 0, 1, or 2 was recorded, with 0 = "unable to achieve independently," 1 = "modified method but achieves goal independent of physical assistance from another," or 2 = "normal- achieves goal without any assistance." The sum of these scores (except for 'raise one's head' activity score) was reported as the ordinal total score, which was transformed to a linear total score ranging from 0 (worst) to 100 (best). Participants with confirmed loss of ambulation at a particular visit were assigned a score of 0.

Title Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Activities of Daily Living and Disease Status at Week 48, as Assessed by a Standardized Survey Administered by Site Personnel
Hide Description Changes in activities of daily living and disease symptoms were captured via a DMD-specific survey administered by Site personnel. At screening or baseline, the participant and/or parent/caregiver were asked to identify any activities of daily living (for example, ambulation, balance, personal hygiene/grooming, dressing and undressing, self-feeding, using the bathroom, handwriting, school performance, behavior or energy level) or symptoms that were affected by the participant's DMD. At post-baseline visit (Week 48), the same participant and/or parent/caregiver was asked to describe any changes from baseline in those activities of daily living/symptoms, within the following categories: physical functioning; general energy level; cognition/school function; emotional/social functioning; and sleep. Changes from baseline were reported on a 5-point Likert scale: 1 (much worse), 2 (slightly worse), 3 (unchanged), 4 (slightly better), or 5 (much better).

Title Change From Baseline in PODCI Transfers/Basic Mobility and Sports/Physical Functioning Scores at Week 48
Hide Description Changes in health-related quality of life (HRQL) were measured via the PODCI questionnaire that has been shown to correlate with disease progression and clinical outcome measures in DMD. PODCI includes a Global Functioning Scale and 5 core scales: Upper Extremity and Physical Function,Transfer/Basic Mobility, Sports/Physical Functioning, Pain/Comfort,and Happiness. The following PODCI domains were prespecified in the protocol for analysis:Transfers/Basic Mobility domain assesses difficulty experienced in performing routine motor activities in daily life. Sports/Physical Functioning domain assesses difficulty encountered in participating in more active recreational activities. Each domain was scored from 0 to 100, with 0 representing a poor outcome/worse health, while 100 representing the highest level of functioning and least pain.
