 Considerations in the Conduct and Design of TOPAZ Proof-of-Concept Study  9  Main focus of TOPAZ was to assess the potential additive therapeutic benefit of apitegromab on top of background SMN upregulator therapy.*While the protocol allowed the use of any approved SMN upregulator as background therapy, only nusinersen had widespread use during TOPAZ trial enrollment. Specifically designed with 3 distinct cohorts to assess apitegromab’s potential across patient populations with varying disease severity and different background expectations for disease course.Clinical data for nusinersen and natural history data help inform our background expectations for disease course for the different populations evaluated in TOPAZ.These insights further our understanding as we continue to investigate apitegromab in SMA.Cohort 3 evaluated two dose arms as we recognized that complete target saturation may not be necessary to achieve therapeutic effect.Low dose of 2 mg/kg was selected to explore this question by aiming for a high level of target engagement but lower than that of the 20 mg/kg dose.  *An apitegromab monotherapy subgroup was included in Cohort 1.
