An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in participant or clinical study participant temporally associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug. An SAE was any AE, that at any dose: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization/prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect or was a medically important event.
Percent predicted Hb and Altitude-adjusted DLco was calculated as: 100\*Adjusted DLco/Predicted DLco in unit of mL CO/min/mmHg where, adjusted DLco = Observed DLco (in mL CO/min/mmHg) times Hemoglobin-adjusted factor times Altitude-adjustment factor.

The SRS rates 5 items: abdominal pain, abdominal discomfort, early satiety, dissatisfaction with abdominal body image, and difficulty to bend down using a numerical rating scale of 0 (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable). The total score of SRS ranges from 0 to 50, with higher scores (50) indicated worst imaginable rating. It was pre-specified as secondary endpoint for countries outside of US.

An AE: Any untoward medical occurrence in participant or clinical investigation participant administered with pharmaceutical product, which did not necessarily have to have causal relationship with study treatment. SAEs: Any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization/prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was congenital anomaly/birth defect, was medically important event. TEAEs: AEs that started during on-treatment period-either in this study or in original study which were ongoing at the time the participant signed the written informed consent. An AESI: AE (serious or nonserious) of scientific and medical concern specific to sponsor's product or program, for which ongoing monitoring and rapid communication by investigator to sponsor was appropriate.
Protocol-defined IARs were AEs that occurred during the infusion or within up to 24 hours after the start of infusion and were considered as related or possibly related to the study treatment by the investigator or the sponsor. Events occurring greater than or equal to (\>=) 24 hours after the start of an infusion might have been judged an IAR at the discretion of the investigator or sponsor. Algorithm-defined IARs were all AEs that started between the start of infusion and the end of infusion plus 24 hours, irrespective of the perceived relation with study treatment.

Liver biopsy samples were evaluated for sphingomyelin accumulation and liver pathology in the participants who previously participated in the DFI13412 study who were at least 18 years old when they entered in this study. Sphingomyelin accumulation was quantified in liver by computer morphometry of high-resolution light microscopy images. Fibrosis grading was assessed on the Laennec scoring system, which grades the extent of fibrosis on a scale from 0 to 4 (0=none; 1=minimal; 2=mild; 3=moderate; 4=cirrhosis). Higher score indicated more severity.
Liver ultrasound doppler was performed for pediatric participants transitioning from DFI13803 to document hepatic blood flow characteristics, principally portal vein pressure, and blood flow direction. The parameters evaluated were liver dysmorphic findings, liver surface abnormalities, mild ascites and hepatic steatosis. Liver ultrasound Doppler was performed using methods that were compatible with the standard institutional procedures of the investigational site.
Blood samples were collected for the presence of ADAs against olipudase alfa. Treatment-boosted ADA: Positive ADA status positive at baseline (pre-existing ADA) and ADA titer level anytime post-baseline significantly higher than that at baseline. Transient ADA: Treatment-induced ADA detected only at 1 sampling time point post-baseline and treatment-induced ADA detected at 2 or more sampling time points post-baseline, where first and last ADA-positive samples (irrespective of any negative samples in between) separated by period of less than 16 weeks, and participant's last sampling time point was ADA-negative. Persistent ADA response: Treatment-induced ADA detected at 2 or more sampling time points post-baseline, where first and the last ADA-positive on-treatment sample (irrespective of any negative samples in between) separated by at least 16 weeks. Treatment-induced: ADA detected in the last 2 sampling time points, irrespective of the time period in between.
TEAEs were defined as adverse events (AEs) that occurred or worsened during the on-treatment period (time from the start of investigational medicinal product \[IMP\]) administration until end of study (i.e. up to 64 weeks).
IARs were defined as AEs that occurred during the infusion or within up to 24 hours after the start of infusion and were considered as related or possibly related to the study treatment by the investigator or the sponsor.

Serum samples for immunogenicity assessment were analyzed to detect ADA. ADA response were categorized as: treatment emergent antibody i.e. treatment-induced/treatment-boosted response. A participant whose ADA status was positive anytime post-baseline and was negative or missing at baseline was considered to have treatment induced ADA. A participant whose ADA status was positive at baseline (pre-existing ADA) and the ADA titer level anytime post-baseline was significantly higher than that at baseline is considered to have treatment boosted ADA. Positive samples in the ADA assay were further analyzed in the NAb assay as positive NAb inhibition of catalytic activity and positive NAb inhibition of cellular uptake.
Evidence of portal hypertension was assessed by portal vein direction from liver ultrasound doppler.
