Kuvan Therapy in Phenylketonuria (PKU): The Effect of Blood Phenylalanine Concentration on Kuvan Response
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Kuvan and Diet for Phenylketonuria. Completed, enrolled 21 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigators will investigate the effect of blood phenylalanine on Kuvan responsiveness in the same patients with PKU when their blood phenylalanine concentrations are altered by diet. Lowering blood phenylalanine concentrations in Kuvan non-responsive patients with PKU will increase the frequency of Kuvan responsiveness.

Timeline
Interventions
20mg/kg by mouth once daily
Phenylalanine-restricted diet (4-10 mg/kg/day phenylalanine) using the prescribed phenylalanine-free medical formula and low protein foods tested with the patients for taste and acceptance to lower blood phenylalanine levels below 600 umol/l.
