Brief Summary
The main aim of the study is to determine if SHP611 given by injection into the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord (intrathecal; IT) prolongs the time for children with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) to retain the ability to move from place to place. Other aims of the study are to determine the effects of intrathecal administration of SHP611 on movement and speech functions and to learn how well SHP611 injected in the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord is tolerated. Study participants will receive SHP611 for about 2 years with the possibility of an extended treatment period.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percent Probability of Free of Loss of Locomotion in the Last Time Interval Up to 2 Years (Week 106) Based on GMFC-MLD for SHP611 Group A and GLIA-MLD Matched External Control
Loss of locomotion was estimated using interval censoring survival analysis. Survival probability free of loss of locomotion based on GMFC-MLD was estimated up to Week 106 (or two years), with associated 2-sided 95 percent (%) confidence interval (CI). GMFC-MLD scale consists of 7 categories, scores ranging from 0 (walking without support with quality of performance normal for age) to 6 (loss of any locomotion as well as loss of any head and trunk control). Higher scores mean a worse outcome. The data was reported in terms of Mean as survival function was quantified using a weighted average of percentage of participants not reaching the event of interest, with weights derived from the relative size of treated and control units in the strata used for the stratified log-rank test in the primary analysis.

Study Arms (1)
SHP611
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive 150 milligrams (mg) of SHP611 intrathecally (IT) via intrathecal drug delivery device (IDDD) or lumbar puncture (LP) once weekly for 106 weeks in six groups (Group A, B, C, D, E, and F) based on participant's age and motor dysfunction.
Interventions
Participants will receive 150 mg of SHP611 IT via IDDD or LP once weekly for 106 weeks.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- The participant must have a documented diagnosis of MLD (Groups A-F):
- Low ASA activity in leukocytes (compared to laboratory normal range).
- Elevated sulfatides in urine.
- The participant must have a gait disorder due to spastic ataxia or weakness attributable to MLD by the investigator and documented by a primary care physician or a specialist physician by 30 months of age (Groups A-C, and F), or be minimally symptomatic and greater than or equal to (\> =) 6 to less than (\<) 18 months of age (Group D) or be early symptomatic and \> =12 to \< 18 months of age (Group E). Participants in Group E must have neurological symptoms either documented by either a primary care physician or a specialist physician.
- The participant's age at the time of informed consent, must be: Group A: 18 to 48 months of age; Group B: 18 to 72 months of age; Group C: 18 to 72 months of age; Group D: \>= 6 to \< 18 months of age; Group E: \> = 12 to \< 18 months of age; Group F: 18 to 72 months of age.
- The participant's GMFC-MLD category at screening must be: Group A: GMFC-MLD category of 1 or 2; Group B: GMFC-MLD category of 3; Group C: GMFC-MLD category of 4; Group D: minimally symptomatic, \>= 6 to \< 18 months of age, with the same arylsulfatase (ASA) allelic constitution as an older sibling with confirmed late infantile or juvenile onset MLD; Group E: early symptomatic, \>= 12 to \< 18 months of age with a GMFC-MLD category of 1 or 2 with a history of achieving stable walking (defined as at least 1 month of independent walking); Group F: GMFC-MLD category of 5 or 6.
- The participant and his/her parent/representative(s) must have the ability to comply with the clinical protocol.
- Participant's parent or legally authorized representative(s) must provide written informed consent prior to performing any study-related activities. Study-related activities are any procedures that would not have been performed during normal management of the participant.
You may not qualify if:
- Multiple sulfatase disorder as determined by abnormal activity of another lysosomal sulfatase (based upon the reference laboratory's normal range) or a known genetic disorder other than MLD.
- History of bone marrow transplant (BMT), hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), or gene therapy; or undergoes BMT, HSCT, or gene therapy: at any point during the study.
- The participant has any known or suspected hypersensitivity to agents used for anesthesia or has history of difficult airway or potential for airway compromise.
- Any other medical condition or serious comorbid illness that in the opinion of the investigator would preclude participation in the study.
- Participants with laboratory, ECG or vital sign abnormalities reflecting intercurrent illness that may compromise their safety during the trial should not be enrolled. Abnormal laboratory, vital sign and ECG results at screening should be reviewed with the Takeda medical monitor.
- The participant is enrolled in another clinical study that involves use of any investigational product (drug or device) within 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to study enrollment or at any time during the study.
- The participant has had prior exposure to SHP611.
- The participants must weigh \> 11 pound (lbs) (5 kilograms \[kg\]).
- The participant has a condition that is contraindicated as described in the SOPH-A-PORT Mini S IDDD Instructions for Use (IFU)
- The participant has had, or may have, an allergic reaction to the materials of construction.
- The participant has shown an intolerance to an implanted device.
- The participant's body size is too small to support the size of the SOPH-A-PORT Mini S Access Port.
- The participant's drug therapy requires substances known to be incompatible with the materials of construction.
- The participant has a known or suspected local or general infection.
- The participant is at risk of abnormal bleeding due to a medical condition or therapy.
