Filter by:This is a 10-year multi-center, global, observational study to further characterize the safety profile of pegvaliase, including hypersensitivity reactions, long-term safety and tolerability, and the effectiveness of the additional risk minimization measures (aRMMs) (European Union (EU) only) in subjects receiving pegvaliase for the treatment of PKU. Subjects for whom a clinical decision has been made that they will receive pegvaliase to treat their PKU within 30 days following the date of enrollment (incident-users) or have previously started treatment with pegvaliase at the date of enrollment (prevalent-users) are eligible for participation in this study.
The goal of Parts A and B of this Phase 1, first-in-human, randomized study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single (SAD) and multiple (MAD) ascending doses of oral JNT-517 in healthy participants. In Part C, the goal is to evaluate the differences in bioavailability between a tablet and suspension formulation of JNT-517 and the food effect in healthy volunteers. All participants in Part C will receive JNT-517. The goal of Part D is to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, and effect on urinary Phe and other amino acids of JNT-517 in participants with phenylketonuria (PKU). Participants in Part D will receive either JNT-517 or placebo and will be blinded to their treatment assignment. The study consists of 4 parts: - Part A: SAD in healthy participants -randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled - Part B: MAD in healthy participants (14 days)-randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled - Part C: Relative bioavailability of 2 formulations and food effect in healthy participants-randomized, open-label - Part D: Phase 1b in participants with PKU (4 weeks)-randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled In each part, participants will complete a Screening Period, a Treatment Period, and a Follow-up Period for safety.
Newborn screening (NBS) is a global initiative of systematic testing at birth to identify babies with pre-defined severe but treatable conditions. With a simple blood test, rare genetic conditions can be easily detected, and the early start of transformative treatment will help avoid severe disabilities and increase the quality of life. Baby Detect Project is an innovative NBS program using a panel of target sequencing that aims to identify 126 treatable severe early onset genetic diseases at birth caused by 361 genes. The list of diseases has been established in close collaboration with the Paediatricians of the University Hospital in Liege. The investigators use dedicated dried blood spots collected between the first day and 28 days of life of babies, after a consent sign by parents.
This is a Phase 4 observational study designed to assess the impact of Palynziq ® (pegvaliase) treatment in pregnant women with PKU and on their offspring who were exposed to pegvaliase at any time during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
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.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of PTC923 in participants with phenylketonuria, and to evaluate the changes from baseline in dietary phenylalanine (Phe)/protein consumption.
Treatment of PKU implies for most patients that with strict adherence to dietary treatment they can achieve excellent neurocognitive outcome. Dietary treatment, though, is hard to comply to every day and with every single meal. Unsurprisingly, health-related quality of life (HrQol) is negatively affected if patients have to follow a dietary regime of this kind. Adherence to treatment in PKU is very variable. Factors of significant impact on adherence to treatment and well-being in chronic disease such as self-efficacy or parenting stress have not yet been widely investigated in PKU patients. The ideal treatment prescription (and guideline) recommends as much as necessary and as little as possible, based on the best evidence available. Patients should neither be deprived of treatment options nor be exposed to overtreatment. This study investigates adherence, metabolic control, HrQol in PKU patients treated by centres which follow different guidelines
A prospective, open label, acceptability study to evaluate PKU, MSUD, HCU, TYR and GA express plus in the dietary management of 40 patients with IEM. The following parameters will be assessed: adherence to prescribed dietary intakes, palatability, usability, gastrointestinal tolerance, clinically relevant routine biochemical parameters, timeframe to transition and contribution of the express plus range to overall protein substitute intake over a 28 day period.
Hyperphenylalaninemia is not only present in patients with congenital phenylketonuria. In adults with critical illness, hyperphenylalaninemia is noted in some patients and is associated with high mortality rate. Hyperphenylalaninemia can cause metabolic acidosis, brain dysfunction, and metabolic disturbance. The investigators would like to see whether the phenylalanine-free milk for congenital phenylketonuria is also effective in lowering the blood phenylalanine concentrations in patients with critical illness in intensive care unit and hyperphenylalaninemia.
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inherited metabolic disorder that impairs the metabolism of the essential amino acid phenylalanine (Phe). Without stringent dietary control, Phe accumulates in the blood and brain of PKU patients, leading to severe cognitive deficits. Achieving metabolic control, defined as blood Phe levels within the range of 120-360 μmol/L, has been a significant challenge for PKU patients using traditional diet therapy. The new FDA approved pharmacologic treatment, Palynziq, offers a new approach that could significantly reduce the burden of PKU by improving blood Phe levels and allowing for a less restrictive diet. As little is known about the global metabolic and physiologic effects of Palynziq, the present study aims to capture changes in diet quality, neurological health, nutritional status, the nutritional metabolome, and patient perceptions of mental and social health with sustained Palynziq therapy.
