ATYR1940-C-006 is a multi-national, multicenter study being conducted at centers in the United States (US) and Europe who participated in Study ATYR1940-C-003 (Stage 1 only) or Study ATYR1940-C-004 (that is, the parent studies).
Study ATYR1940-C-006 is a multi-national, multi-center, open-label extension study designed to evaluate the long-term safety, effects on muscle, and pharmacodynamics of ATYR1940 in participants with Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) or FSHD previously treated in the Study ATYR1940-C-003 (Stage 1 only) or Study ATYR1940-C-004 that is, the parent studies). This study will be conducted at the same study centers at which participants were enrolled in the parent studies. Participants who completed the treatment period in the parent study and, in the Investigator's opinion, demonstrated acceptable tolerability of ATYR1940, are considered by the Investigator to be compliant with ATYR1940 and the study procedures, and do not meet any criterion for ATYR1940 discontinuation are eligible for participation in the current study, contingent upon Investigator and participant agreement to continue ATYR1940 treatment. For the first 12 weeks in this extension study, participants will receive ATYR1940 at the highest tolerated dose received in the parent study; no dose adjustments are allowed during this 12-week period. After 12 weeks, if the participant is demonstrating good tolerability, the ATYR1940 dose may be increased on a participant-specific basis at the Investigator's discretion, in consultation with the Sponsor and Medical Monitor. ATYR1940 dose increases to \>3.0 mg/kg are not permissible. All participants will receive ATYR1940 on a weekly basis in this study, regardless of the frequency of dosing in the parent study. ATYR1940 will be administered via intravenous (IV) infusion over 90 minutes. If medically indicated, the infusion duration and volume may be adjusted at the Investigator's discretion in consultation with the Medical Monitor and Sponsor.

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
TEAEs were defined as adverse events (AEs) with an onset following administration of the first dose of study drug. AEs were defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered study drug and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the study drug. Worsening of a pre-existing medical condition should have been considered an AE if there was either an increase in severity, frequency, or duration of the condition or an association with significantly worse outcomes. SAEs were defined as any AE that, in the view of either the Investigator or Sponsor, resulted in any of the following outcomes as fatal, life-threatening, required in-participant hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, a congenital anomaly/birth defect, an important medical event. A summary of all SAEs and Other AEs (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.
Time frame: Up to End of Study (up to approximately Week 39)
Number of Participants With Positive Anti-Drug Antibodies (ADA)
Summarized titers are reported below.
Time frame: Up to End of Study (up to approximately Week 39)
Number of Participants With a Jo-1 Antibody (Ab) Test Result ≥1.5 Units/Milliliter (U/mL)
Participants with Jo-1 Ab levels ≥1.5 U/mL were to be discontinued from dosing of the study drug.
Time frame: Up to End of Study (up to approximately Week 39)
Number of Participants With a Clinical Laboratory Abnormality Leading to an AE
Laboratory parameters included hematology (hematocrit, hemoglobin, red blood cell count, white blood cell count neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, and platelet count); serum chemistries (blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, sodium, potassium, bicarbonate, calcium, chloride, magnesium, inorganic phosphate, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, C-reactive protein, troponin, myoglobin, insulin-like growth factor 1, and cholesterol \[nonfasting\]); and urinalysis (color, pH, specific gravity, protein, glucose, ketones, and blood). Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities were based upon Investigator's discretion. A summary of all Serious Adverse Events and Other Adverse Events (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.

Number of Participants With a Clinically Significant Pulmonary Function Event Resulting in a TEAE
Pulmonary evaluations included pulmonary function tests and pulse oximetry. Clinically significant changes were to be reported as adverse events. A summary of all Serious Adverse Events and Other Adverse Events (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.
Time frame: Up to End of Study (up to approximately Week 39)
Number of Participants With a Clinically Significant Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormality Leading to a TEAE
ECG parameters that were evaluated included heart rate and PR, QR, and QT intervals. A clinically significant ECG abnormality was based upon the Investigator's discretion. A summary of all Serious Adverse Events and Other Adverse Events (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.
Time frame: Up to End of Study (up to approximately Week 39)
Number of Participants With Vital Sign Abnormality Resulting in a TEAE
The vital sign parameters that were evaluated included heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and respiration rate as well as temperature. A summary of all Serious Adverse Events and Other Adverse Events (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.
Time frame: Up to End of Study (up to approximately Week 39)
Change From Baseline in Manual Muscle Testing (MMT) Score at Week 12
MMT (muscle strength) will be graded using a modified Medical Research Council scale. Scores were converted to 13-point scale (range from 0 \[on contraction palpable\] to 12 \[normal strength\]). An overall total score was calculated by summing all scores for a total possible score of 336. Decreased muscle strength was indicated by a decreased score. An overall total score was calculated as long as 24 of the 28 individual scores were non-missing.
