Brief Summary: The primary objective of Parts 1 and 2 of the study were to establish the histologic effects of givinostat administered chronically at the selected daily dose.

The secondary objectives of Parts 1 and 2 of the study were as follows:

* To establish the effects of givinostat administered chronically at the selected daily dose on functional parameters, such as the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), North Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA), and performance of upper limb (PUL)
* To establish the safety and tolerability of givinostat administered chronically at the selected daily dose in children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)
* To explore the effects of givinostat administered chronically at the selected daily dose on parameters such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and biomarkers
* To explore the acceptability/palatability of the oral suspension
* To explore whether the effects of givinostat on disease progression may be related to the type of DMD mutation.

The primary objective of the Extension of the study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of long-term administration of givinostat administered chronically at the selected daily dose in children with DMD.

The secondary objectives of the Extensions were:

* To establish the effects of givinostat administered chronically at the selected daily dose on muscular functional parameters, such as the 6MWT, NSAA, and PUL (Extensions 1, 2, and 3)
* To explore the effects of givinostat administered chronically at the selected daily dose on parameters such as MRI (Extension 1)
* To collect information related to 2 biomarkers, latent Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) binding protein 4 (LTBP4) and osteopontin genotype (at the beginning of Extension 2 only)
* To collect information related to time to wheelchair and how much time the children spend in wheelchair (Extension 3 - only for the children who were not able to complete the 6MWT)
Detailed Description: This is a 2-part, phase II study to assess the effects of Givinostat on muscle histologic parameters and on clinical parameters in ambulant children with DMD.

The safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of Givinostat will also be assessed.

Approximately 20 children were to be enrolled in the study as follows: the first 4 children were to be treated at a low dose level of givinostat (25 mg twice daily \[BID\] in children who weighed 20 kg to 49 kg and 37.5 mg BID in children who weighed ≥ 50 kg).

If none of the stopping criteria were met after 2 weeks of treatment at the low dose, the review team was to determine the escalated dose level (ie, intermediate dose level) to be used for the treatment of an additional 8 children who were to be treated at the intermediate dose. The 4 children previously treated at the low dose level were also switched to the intermediate dose level.

If none of the stopping criteria were met after 2 weeks of treatment at the intermediate dose, the review team was to determine the subsequent escalated dose level to be used for the treatment of an additional 8 children who were to be treated at the high dose. All children treated at the intermediate dose level were to be switched to the high dose level.

Once all 20 children enrolled during Part 1 of the study had been treated for at least 2 weeks, the review team was to determine the recommended dose (RD) to be used in Part 2 based on the safety and tolerability profile observed and on the pharmacokinetic (PK) analyses. All the children enrolled were switched to the RD level (37.5 mg BID), which was administered for the subsequent 12 months of the study (Part 2).

At the end of Part 2 of the study, parents were asked to consent and patients to assent to continuing their participation in the Extension to receive the study treatment at least until the final analysis was performed (Part 3-Extensions; after 52 months of treatment). The patients received givinostat at the same ongoing dose, during the last visit planned at 12 months, and were treated for additional 40 months (Extensions 1, 2, and 3 up to month 52).
