Data presented exclude data following the initiation of rescue therapy., Baseline and Week 52|Baseline EQ-5D 3-level Version (EQ-5D-3L) Questionnaire Score, The EQ-5D-3L is a health profile questionnaire that assesses quality of life along 5 dimensions. Participants rate 5 aspects of health (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) by choosing from 3 answering options (1=no problems; 2=some problems; 3=extreme problems). The summed score ranges from 1-15 with "3" corresponding to no problems and "15" corresponding to severe problems in the 5 dimensions. EQ-5D-3L also includes an EQ visual analogue score (VAS) that ranges between 100 (best imaginable health) and 0 (worst imaginable health). Total index EQ-5D-3L summary score is weighted with a range of -0.594 (worst) to 1.0 (best)., Baseline|Change From Baseline in EQ-5D-3L Questionnaire Score at Week 26, The EQ-5D-3L is a health profile questionnaire that assesses quality of life along 5 dimensions.
