Key inclusion & exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

- Completion of Study PVO-1A-202/Part B.

- Written, signed, and dated informed consent and, for participants who are minors,
age-appropriate participant assent (performed according to local regulations).

- Accessible for treatment with palovarotene and follow-up (able and willing to travel
to a site for the initial and all follow-up clinic visits).

- Able to undergo low-dose, WBCT scan, excluding head.

- Females of child-bearing potential must have a negative blood or urine pregnancy test
(with sensitivity of at least 50 mIU/mL) prior to administration of palovarotene.

- Male and FOCBP participants must agree to remain abstinent from heterosexual sex
during treatment and for 1 month after treatment or, if sexually active, to use two
effective methods of birth control during and for 1 month after treatment.
Additionally, sexually active females of childbearing potential (FOCBP) participants
must already be using two effective methods of birth control 1 month before treatment
is to start. Specific risk of the use of retinoids during pregnancy, and the agreement
to remain abstinent or use two effective methods of birth control will be clearly
defined in the informed consent and the participant or legally authorized
representatives.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Any reason that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would lead to the inability of
the participant and/or family to comply with the protocol.

- Amylase or lipase >2x above the upper limit of normal or with a history of
pancreatitis.

- Elevated aspartate aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase >2.5x the upper limit
of normal.

- Fasting triglycerides >400 mg/dL with or without therapy.

- Currently using vitamin A or beta carotene, multivitamins containing vitamin A or beta
carotene, herbal preparations containing vitamin A or beta carotene, or fish oil, and
unable or unwilling to discontinue use of these products during palovarotene
treatment.

- Participants experiencing suicidal ideation (type 4 or 5) or any suicidal behavior
within the past month as defined by the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale
(C-SSRS).
