Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (25)

• Number of Participants With Mobility Status Assessments at Study Baseline, Weeks 52, 104, 156 and 208

  Mobility, i.e., ability to walk was assessed as a part of Gaucher disease assessment in participants. In this outcome measure, number of participants with their different mobility status along with the use of mobility aids (unrestricted mobility, walks with difficulty, walks with orthopaedic aid, requires wheelchair, bedridden) at specified time points were reported. Baseline refers to the current study baseline, which was defined as status at this study (EFC13781) entry.

  Study Baseline, Weeks 52, 104, 156 and 208

• Number of Participants With Bone Pain Levels During the Past 4 Weeks at Study Baseline, Weeks 52, 104, 156 and 208

  Bone pain was assessed as a part of Gaucher disease assessment in participants. Participants were categorized as none (no bone pain), very mild bone pain, mild bone pain, moderate bone pain, severe bone pain and extreme bone pain during the past 4 weeks at each specified visit. In this outcome measure, number of participants with different level of bone pain during the past 4 weeks at specified time points were reported. Baseline refers to the current study baseline, which was defined as status at this study (EFC13781) entry.

  Study Baseline, Weeks 52, 104, 156 and 208

• Number of Participants With Bone Crisis at Study Baseline, Weeks 52, 104, 156 and 208

  Bone crisis was assessed as a part of Gaucher disease assessment in participants. Acute, excruciating episodic bone pain is characteristic of Gaucher bone crisis, which typically causes periosteal elevation, elevated white blood cell count, fever, or debilitation lasting several days or longer and requires treatment with immobilization of the affected area, and opioid analgesics. Participants were categorized as 0= no bone crisis, 1= 1 bone crisis, 2= 2 bone crisis and \>=3 = more than 3 bone crisis during the assessment period. In this outcome measure, number of participants with different bone crises levels at specified time points were reported. Baseline refers to the current study baseline, which was defined as status at this study (EFC13781) entry.

  Study Baseline, Weeks 52, 104, 156 and 208

• Change From Current Study Baseline in Total Bone Marrow Burden (BMB) Scores at Weeks 52, 104, 156 and 208

  Bone marrow burden (BMB) scores indicate the degree of bone marrow infiltration. BMB score was measured using MRI (magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ranged from 0 (no abnormalities) to 8 points (severe disease) for the lumbar spine and from 0 (no abnormalities) to 8 points (severe disease) for the femurs. The total BMB score was calculated as the sum of scores for femur and lumbar spine regions which ranged from 0 (no abnormalities) to 16 (severe disease) points. A higher BMB score signified more severe bone marrow involvement. For this outcome measure, baseline refers to the current study baseline, which was defined as status at this study (EFC13781) entry.

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants who completed one of the Phase 2 (GZGD00304 \[NCT00358150\]) or Phase 3 studies (GZGD02507 \[NCT00891202\], GZGD02607 \[NCT00943111\], or GZGD03109 \[NCT01074944\]) were enrolled in this current (EFC13781) study.

• The participant had received an investigational product (other than eliglustat) within 30 days prior to enrollment.
• The participant had received miglustat within the 6 months prior to enrollment.

• The participant had any clinically significant disease, other than Gaucher disease, including cardiovascular, renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, neurologic, endocrine, metabolic (eg, hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia), or psychiatric disease, other medical conditions, or serious intercurrent illnesses that might preclude participation in the study.
• The participant was known to have any of the following: cardiac disease (congestive heart failure, recent acute myocardial infarction, bradycardia, heart block, ventricular arrhythmia), long QT syndrome, or current treatment with Class IA or Class III antiarrhythmic medicinal products.
• The participant had tested positive for the human immunodeficiency virus antibody, hepatitis C antibody, or hepatitis B surface antigen.
• The participant had a history of cancer within 6 months of enrolment, with the exception of basal cell carcinoma.
• Participant was a CYP2D6 IM, EM or URM and was taking a strong or moderate CYP2D6 inhibitor concomitantly with a strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitor.
• Participant was a CYP2D6 PM having taken a strong CYP3A inhibitor within 2 weeks prior to enrolment.
• If a female participant of childbearing potential had a positive pregnancy test (blood β-human chorionic gonadotropin \[β-HCG\]) or was breastfeeding prior to first dosing of eliglustat in this study, the participant could not enroll in the study at that time, but might have been rescreened after the end of the pregnancy, and/or when she was no longer breast feeding, provided rescreening took place before the end of the enrollment period.
• Women of childbearing potential who were unwilling or unable to be tested for pregnancy.
• The above information was not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a participant's potential participation in a clinical trial.
