         - Generalized weakness

         - Respiratory insufficiency

         - Feeding difficulties

         - Clubfoot or another musculoskeletal deformity

   3. Subject must be able to walk and complete the 10-meter walk-run test

   2. Body mass index (BMI) less than 13.5 kg/m² or greater than 40 kg/m²

   3. New or change in medications/therapies within 4 weeks prior to Screening

   4. Use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g clarithromycin, telithromycin, ketoconazole,
   itraconazole, posaconazole, nefazodone, idinavir and ritonavir) within 4 weeks prior
   to Baseline

   5. Concurrent use of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 with a narrow therapeutic window (e.g.
   warfarin and digitoxin)

   6. Current enrollment in a clinical trial of an investigational drug or enrollment in a
   clinical trial of an investigational drug in the last 6 months

   7. Existing or historical medical conditions or complications (e.g. neurological,
   cardiovascular, renal, hepatic, endocrine, gastrointestinal or respiratory disease)
   which would cause the investigator to conclude that the subject will not be able to
   perform the study procedures or assessments or would confound interpretation of data
   obtained during assessment

   8. Hypersensitivity to tideglusib and its excipients including allergy to strawberry
