No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Thirty eligible PKU patients (≥ 8 years), identified as tablet protein substitute users, will be recruited. Patients will firstly observe a 7-day baseline period, in which participants will continue with their existing diet, protein substitute and multi vitamin prescription. Patients will then receive the phaenylalanine-free protein substitute tablets daily for 28 days in addition to appropriate nutritional management. The aim of this prospective, single arm trial is to evaluate the acceptability (compliance, tolerance and palatability) of the phenylalanine-free protein substitute tablets in patients with proven PKU. The primary outcome measure is compliance, with secondary outcome measures of gastrointestinal tolerance, acceptability, blood amino acids, dietary intake, anthropometry and safety.
