Inclusion Criteria
* Parent(s) or guardian(s) consent
* 5 to < 18 years old
* ACH, documented and confirmed by genetic testing
* At least a 6-month period of pretreatment growth assessment in Study 111-901 before study entry
* If sexually active, willing to use a highly effective method of contraception
* Ambulatory and able to stand without assistance
Exclusion Criteria
* Hypochondroplasia or short stature condition other than ACH
* Have any of the following:
* History of any of the following:
* Have an unstable condition likely to require surgical intervention during the study (including progressive cervical medullary compression or severe untreated sleep apnea)
* Decreased growth velocity (< 1.5 cm/yr) over a period of 6 months or evidence of growth plate closure (proximal tibia, distal femur)
* Treated with growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), or anabolic steroids in the previous 6 months or treatment greater than 6 months at any time
* Greater than 1 month treatment with oral corticosteroids (low-dose ongoing inhaled steroid for asthma, or intranasal steroids, are acceptable) in the previous 12 months
* Planned or expected to have limb-lengthening surgery during the study period. Subjects with previous limb- lengthening surgery may enroll if surgery occurred at least 18 months prior to the study and healing is complete without sequelae.
* Planned or expected bone-related surgery (ie. surgery involving disruption of bone cortex, excluding tooth extraction), during the study period. Subjects with previous bone-related surgery may enroll if surgery occurred at least 6 months prior to the study and healing is complete without sequelae.
* Had a fracture of the long bones or spine within 6 months prior to screening
* History of severe untreated sleep apnea
* New initiation of sleep apnea treatment (e.g. CPAP or sleep apnea-mitigating surgery) in the previous 2 months prior to screening
* History of hip surgery or hip dysplasia atypical for achondroplastic subjects
* History of clinically significant hip injury in the 30 days prior to screening
* History of slipped capital femoral epiphysis or avascular necrosis of the femoral head
* Abnormal findings on baseline clinical hip exam or imaging assessments that are determined to be clinically significant
* Concurrent disease or condition that would interfere with study participation or safety evaluations, for any reason
* Condition or circumstance that places the subject at high risk for poor treatment compliance or for not completing the study
