Summary

This is a 2 arm, randomised, controlled, cross-over study in 16 children with PKU. Subjects who are currently taking a Phe free/low Phe protein substitute will be recruited for a 31-day trial.

Patients will be randomised to receive:

1. The study product for 7 days as their last dose of protein substitute for the day (at least one sachet with 15g PE) in an amount equivalent to their usual protein substitute PE; or
2. An amino acid protein substitute for all daily doses for 7 days; followed by a 2-week washout period on their usual protein substitute,

and then 7 days of the other study arm.

During this time, patients/caregivers will be asked to:

* Collect 3 finger prick blood spots on days -1, 0, 6, 7, 20, 21, 27 and 28.
* Collect urine sample, second void of the day on days 0, 7, 21 and 28.
* Complete a questionnaire on sleep quality on day 0, 7, 21 and 28.
* Complete a 24 hour food diary on days -1, 0, 6, 7, 20, 21, 27 and 28.

APR will supply the study product for participants free of charge.
