Participant Flow

Participants who completed the 24-week double-blind main study (Study AMX3500) on treatment were eligible to enter into the OLE.

To maintain the study blind, participants who entered the OLE initiated dosing in the OLE with 2 sachets of AMX0035 daily (ie, participants who switched from placebo to AMX0035 were not titrated using a starting dose of 1 sachet daily for the first 3 weeks, which was the starting dosing in the Main Study AMX3500).

Comparison of the difference in change in slope of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Rating Scale Revised (ALSFRS-R) total score from the Main Study baseline through Week 48 of the open-label extension (OLE) between the 2 treatment groups: those randomized to AMX0035 in the Main Study and those randomized to Placebo in the main study (all participants in the OLE received AMX0035). The slope is measured as a change in score divided by a change in time. ALSFRS-R consists of 12 items across 4 subdomains of function (bulbar, fine motor, gross motor, and breathing) with each item scored on a scale from 0 (total loss of function) to 4 (no loss of function). Total scores range from 0 to 48, with higher scores indicating better function.
