This study centres around a new one-a-day phenylalanine-free protein substitute for phenylketonuria patients. Fifty eligible adults (≥ 16 years) with proven phenylketonuria or hyperphenylalaninemia will be recruited and randomly allocated to one of two intervention arms (n = 25 per arm). Following a 3-day baseline period, and in addition to routine nutritional management, patients will receive either one sachet of the new protein substitute daily (intervention) or continue their usual dietary and/or protein substitute regimen (maximum of 1 protein substitute per day (equal to 20g protein equivalent) control) for 28 days.

Primary | Nutritional Status (objective measure) | Blood micro nutrient levels; active Vitamin B12 (holotranscobalamin) | 2 days | |
Secondary | Nutritional Status (Objective measure) | Blood micro nutrient levels; Folate (Folic Acid) | 2 days | |
Secondary | Nutritional Status (Objective measure) | Blood micro nutrient levels; Iron (Ferritin) | 2 days | |
Secondary | Nutritional Status (Objective measure) | Blood micro nutrient levels; Zinc | 2 days | |
Secondary | Nutritional Status (Objective measure) | Blood micro nutrient levels; Vitamin D (25-hydroxyvitamin D) | 2 days | |
Secondary | Nutritional Status (subjective measure) | 3 day weighed food diary | 6 days | |
Secondary | Daily compliance with prescribed protein substitute as assessed by standarised questionnaire | Compliance with the recommended intake of the patients previously prescribed protein substitute (during baseline in both groups, and during the study period in the control group) and with the study product during the intervention period will be assessed daily throughout the study. Patients will be asked to record how much of the protein substitute is taken compared to that recommended by their Health Care Professional. The daily amount prescribed by the Health Care Professional managing the patients care will be recorded at the start of the study and any changes to this prescription during the study will be noted. During the intervention period, protein substitute consumption patterns (e.g. timing and amount consumed) will be recorded daily and assessed b y a standardised questionnaire. | 31 days | |
Secondary | Metabolic Control | Blood amino acid levels; Collected samples will be analysed for blood phenylalanine, tyrosine and 16 other proteinogenic amino acids, 2 non-proteinogenic amino acids and 1 amino sulfonic acid. | 2 days | |
Secondary | Gastrointestinal tolerance as assessed by standarised questionnaire | Gastrointestinal tolerance (including diarrhoea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, bloating, flatulence and burping) will be assessed using a standardised gastrointestinal tolerance questionnaire completed by the patient. | 12 days | |
Secondary | Acceptability as assessed by standarised questionnaire | Acceptability (ease of use and liking) of the patients previously prescribed protein substitute and the study product will be assessed at the end of baseline (day 4) and the end of the intervention period (day 31) using a standardised questionnaire completed by the patient. | 2 days | |
Secondary | Subjective Mood | Profile of mood states questionnaire | 3 days | |
Secondary | Anthropometry | Measures of weight and height will be made during baseline observations (day 1) and at the end of the intervention period (day 31). Weight will be determined to the nearest 0.1 kg, using portable scales shoeless and wearing light weight clothing. | 2 days |
