Summary

This study aims to evaluate BH4 responsiveness in our PKU patients and to correlate BH4 responsiveness with their genotype

Conditions

  • Phenylketonuria (PKU)

Interventions

DRUG

Sapropterin Dihydrochloride (BH4, tetrahydrobiopterin)

Patients were supplemented with phenylalanine a protein rich supplement based on milk protein, or an increase in natural protein intake) if phenylalanine was \< 400 μmol/l. BH4 20 mg/kg was administered at T = 0 and T = 24. Blood samples were taken at T = 0, 8, 16, 24 and 48 h. Responsiveness was defined as ≥ 30% reduction in phenylalanine concentration at ≥ 1 time point.
