Abstract
CONTEXT: Long-term data on enzyme replacement treatment of hypophosphatasia (HPP) are limited. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate efficacy and safety of asfotase alfa in patients aged ≤5 years with HPP followed for up to 6 years. DESIGN: Phase 2 open-label study (July 2010 to September 2016). SETTING: Twenty-two sites; 12 countries. PARTICIPANTS: Sixty-nine patients [median (range) age: 16.0 (0.02 to 72) months] with severe HPP and sign/symptom onset before age 6 months. INTERVENTION: Asfotase alfa 2 mg/kg three times/week or 1 mg/kg six times/week subcutaneously. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Primary efficacy measure: Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C) score [-3 (severe worsening) to +3 (complete/near-complete healing)]. Additional outcome measures: respiratory status, growth, and safety. Post hoc analysis: characteristics of radiographic responders vs nonresponders at Year 1 (RGI-C: ≥+2 vs <+2). RESULTS: During median (minimum, maximum) 2.3 (0.02, 5.8) years of treatment, RGI-C scores improved significantly at Month 6 [+2.0 (-1.7, +3.0)], Year 1 [+2.0 (-2.3, +3.0)], and Last Assessment [+2.3 (-2.7, +3.0); P < 0.0001 all]. Of 24 patients requiring respiratory support at Baseline, 11 (46%) no longer needed support. Height/weight z scores generally increased. Nine patients died (13%). All patients experienced at least one adverse event; pyrexia was most common. Compared with responders [n = 50 (72%)], nonresponders [n = 19 (28%)] had more severe disease at Baseline and a higher rate of neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) at Last Assessment. CONCLUSIONS: Most infants/young children given asfotase alfa showed early radiographic and clinical improvement sustained up to 6 years; radiographic nonresponders had more severe disease and more frequent NAbs at Last Assessment.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
