- Evaluate the effect of BMN 111 on change from baseline in length/height Z-scores [ Time Frame: One year ]Evaluate change from baseline in length/height Z-score in subjects treated with BMN 111 compared with control subjects in the placebo group at 52 weeks
- Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability] [ Time Frame: One year ]
- Evaluate the effect of BMN 111 on change from baseline in AGV [ Time Frame: One year ]
- Evaluate the effect of BMN 111 on bone morphology/quality by X-ray and dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) [ Time Frame: One year ]
- Characterize maximum concentration (Cmax) of BMN 111 in plasma [ Time Frame: One year ]
- Characterize the area under the plasma concentration time-curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC0-∞) [ Time Frame: One year ]
- Characterize the area under the plasma concentration time-curve from time 0 to the last measurable concentration (AUC0-t) [ Time Frame: 52 Weeks ]
- Characterize the elimination half-life of BMN 111 (t½) [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
- Characterize the apparent clearance of drug [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
- Characterize the apparent volume of distribution based upon the terminal phase (Vz/F) [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
- Characterize the amount of time BMN 111 is present at maximum concentration (Tmax) [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
- Potential Changes in health-related quality of life as measured by the quality of life in Short- statured youth [ Time Frame: One year ]
- BMN 111 activity will be assessed by measuring bone and collagen metabolism [ Time Frame: One year ]
- Evaluate the effect of BMN 111 on growth parameters and body proportions, including change from baseline in upper:lower segment body ratio [ Time Frame: One year ]
- Evaluate the effect of BMN 111 on Sleep study scores by polysomnography [ Time Frame: One year ]
