Phenylketonuria Clinical Trial
Official title:
Bone Mineral Density in Adults With Hyperphenylalaninemia on Kuvan Therapy
Prospective study to compare the bone mineral density in adults with HPA on KUVAN™ therapy to those not on therapy. The investigators hypothesize that after one year of KUVAN™ therapy, there will be an improvement in their bone mineral density.
Hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) is a rare metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency of the
enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) (NIH, October 16-18, 2000). Elevated plasma levels of
phenylalanine (phe) cause mental retardation, microcephaly, delayed speech, seizures,
eczema, and behavior abnormalities. Adequate control of the plasma levels of phe by a
phe-restricted diet can prevent the developmental and behavioral problems.
The foundation of this diet is a phe-free metabolic medical product/formula made from free
amino acids. Based on longitudinal studies, it has been reported that the most benefit is
attained by individuals who maintain a phe-restricted diet throughout life. On December 13,
2007, KUVAN™ (sapropterin dihydrochloride) was approved by the FDA for the indication of
reducing blood phe levels in patients with HPA due to BH4 responsive PKU, in conjunction
with a phe restricted diet (BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc., Investigator's Brochure March 25,
2008). Studies were performed to determine a definition of response to KUVAN™. In a phase 2
clinical trial in 2007, Burton, et. al. defined a Kuvan™ responder as having a 30% or
greater improvement in blood phenylalanine levels compared to baseline after 8 days of drug
therapy.
Kuvan™ has been shown to improve phenylalanine tolerance in some individuals with HPA. This
drug enables these individuals to consume more protein from natural sources. However, there
have been no research studies assessing the effects of KUVAN™ along with liberalization of
the diet on bone mineral density.
The investigators propose a prospective study to compare the bone mineral density in adults
with HPA on KUVAN™ therapy to those not on therapy. The investigators hypothesize that after
one year of KUVAN™ therapy, there will be an improvement in their bone mineral density.
