Change From Baseline in the Mean Rett Syndrome Behaviour Questionnaire (RSBQ) Total Score at Week 24 for the 15 mg/kg/Day GWP42003-P Dose Level Compared With Placebo
RSBQ is a caregiver-completed questionnaire that measures the frequency of current disease characteristics (45 items) in individuals with Rett Syndrome. Each item is rated on a 3-point scale (0-2); 0 indicating an item that is "not true as far as you know," 1 indicating an item is "somewhat or sometimes true," and 2 indicating an item that is "very true or often true." Item 31 ("Uses eye gaze to convey feelings, needs and wishes") is reverse scored (0 indicating "very true or often true", 1 indicating "somewhat or sometimes true," and 2 indicating "not true as far as you know"). The total summed score ranges from 0 to 90, with higher scores representing greater severity.
Time frame: Baseline; Week 24
Change From Baseline in the Mean RSBQ Total Score at Week 24 for the 5 mg/kg/Day GWP42003-P Dose Level Compared With Placebo

Each item is rated on a 3-point scale (0-2); 0 indicating an item that is "not true as far as you know," 1 indicating an item is "somewhat or sometimes true," and 2 indicating an item that is "very true or often true." Item 31 ("Uses eye gaze to convey feelings, needs and wishes") is reverse scored (0 indicating "very true or often true", 1 indicating "somewhat or sometimes true," and 2 indicating "not true as far as you know"). The total summed score ranges from 0 to 90, with higher scores represent greater severity.

Mean Clinical Global Impressions - Improvement (CGI-I) Score at Week 24
CGI-I is a 7-point scale that requires the clinician to assess how much a participant's illness has improved or worsened relative to a Baseline state at the beginning of the intervention. This is rated as: 1 = very much improved; 2 = much improved; 3 = minimally improved; 4 = no change; 5 = minimally worse; 6 = much worse; or 7 = very much worse.

Change From Baseline in Mean Clinician Global Impressions - Severity (CGI-S) Score at Week 24
CGI-S is a 7-point scale that requires the clinician to rate the severity of the participant's illness at the time of assessment relative to the clinician's experience with participants who had the same diagnosis. This is rated as: 1 = normal, not at all ill; 2 = borderline ill; 3 = mildly ill; 4 = moderately ill; 5 = markedly ill; 6 = severely ill; or 7 = extremely ill.
Time frame: Baseline; Week 24
Change From Baseline in Mean RSBQ Subscale Scores at Week 24
RSBQ is a caregiver-completed questionnaire that measures the frequency of current disease characteristics in individuals with Rett Syndrome. The 45-item RSBQ is comprised of 8 subscales: 1) general mood (score range 0-16), 2) breathing problems (range 0-10), 3) hand behaviors (range 0-12), 4) face movements (range 0-8), 5) body rocking (BR)/expressionless face (range 0-12), 6) night-time behaviors (range 0-6), 7) anxiety/fear (range 0-8), 8) walking/standing (range 0-4). Each item is rated on a 3-point scale (0-2); 0 indicating an item that is "not true as far as you know," 1 indicating an item is "somewhat or sometimes true," and 2 indicating an item that is "very true or often true." Item 31 ("Uses eye gaze to convey feelings, needs and wishes") is reverse scored (0 indicating "very true or often true", 1 indicating "somewhat or sometimes true," and 2 indicating "not true as far as you know"). Higher scores representing greater severity. CFB = Change from Baseline.

Change From Baseline in Mean 9-items Motor Behavioral Assessment (MBA-9) Total Score and Subscale Scores at Week 24
MBA-9 is derived from the full MBA scale (37 Rett syndrome symptoms) by selecting the items deemed amenable to change and which reflected areas of meaningful clinical change. the MBA-9 includes 9 items (1-Regression of motor skills; 2-Poor eye/social contact; 3-Lack of sustained interest; 4-Does not reach for objects or people; 5-Chewing difficulties; 6-Speech disturbance; 7-Hand clumsiness; 8-Dystonia and 9-Hypertonia/rigidity); for each item, the severity of current symptoms is rated by the investigator on a 5-point numerical scale ranging from 0 to 4 with higher scores representing greater severity (0 = normal or never; 1 = mild or rare; 2 = moderate or occasional; 3 = marked or frequent; 4 = very severe or constant). Total MBA-9 score was calculated by summing the scores of 9 different subscale items. The total summed score ranges from 0 to 36, with higher scores representing greater severity. CFB = Change from Baseline.

Change From Baseline in Mean Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) Total Score and Subscale Scores at Week 24
CSHQ is a caregiver-completed sleep screening instrument designed for school-aged children; which includes 33 items within 8 subscales: 1) bedtime resistance (score range 6-18), 2) sleep onset delay (range 1-3), 3) sleep duration (range 3-9), 4) sleep anxiety (range 4-12), 5) night wakings (range 3-9), 6) parasomnias (range 7-21), 7) sleep-disordered breathing (range 3-9), 8) daytime sleepiness (range 8-24). Item scores range from 1 to 3, where 3="usually" (≥5 times/week), 2="sometimes" (2-4 times/week), and 1="rarely" (≤1 time/week); for items 31 and 32; 3=fall asleep, 2=very sleepy, 1=not sleepy. In general, a score of 3 indicates greater severity, however, 6 items (1-Goes to bed at same time; 2-Falls asleep in 20 minutes; 3-Falls asleep in own bed; 10-Sleeps the right amount; 11-Sleeps same amount each day; 26-Wakes by himself) are reverse scored. Total summed score ranges from 33 to 99, with higher scores representing more disturbed sleep behavior. CFB = Change from Baseline.
