Formulation and PEGylation optimization of the therapeutic PEGylated phenylalanine ammonia lyase for the treatment of phenylketonuria [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a genetic metabolic disease in which the decrease or loss of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) activity results in elevated, neurotoxic levels of phenylalanine (Phe).

Evaluation of orally administered PEGylated phenylalanine ammonia lyase in mice for the treatment of Phenylketonuria [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2011
Phenylketonuria (PKU), a Mendelian autosomal recessive phenotype (OMIM 261600), is an inborn error of metabolism causing impaired postnatal cognitive development in the absence of treatment. We used the Pah(enu2/enu2) PKU mouse model to study oral enzyme substitution therapy with various chemically modified formulations of phenylalanine ammonia lyase ...

Long‐Term Safety and Efficacy of Pegvaliase in Japanese Adults With Phenylketonuria: Final Results of a Phase III Trial [PDF]

open access: yesJIMD Reports
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inborn error of metabolism leading to phenylalanine (Phe) accumulation and consequent neurological, neurocognitive, and psychiatric symptoms. Pegvaliase, a pegylated recombinant phenylalanine ammonia lyase that metabolizes Phe,

Clinical experience with Pegvaliase in phenylketonuria: A retrospective chart review of outcomes, safety, and dosing patterns [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports
Background: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a metabolic disorder caused by phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) deficiency, resulting in elevated plasma phenylalanine (Phe) levels.

Development of Pegylated Forms of Recombinant Rhodosporidium toruloides Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase for the Treatment of Classical Phenylketonuria

open access: yesMolecular Therapy, 2005
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a metabolic disorder due primarily to mutations in the PAH gene that impair both phenylalanine hydroxylase activity and disposal of l-phenylalanine from the normal diet. Excess phenylalanine is toxic to cognitive development and a low-phenylalanine diet prevents mental retardation, but it is a difficult therapeutic option ...

Pegvaliase for the treatment of phenylketonuria: Final results of a long-term phase 3 clinical trial program [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a genetic disorder caused by deficiency of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH), which results in phenylalanine (Phe) accumulation in the blood and brain, and requires lifelong treatment to keep blood Phe in a safe range ...

Preclinical evaluation of multiple species of PEGylated recombinant phenylalanine ammonia lyase for the treatment of phenylketonuria [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a metabolic disorder, in which loss of phenylalanine hydroxylase activity results in neurotoxic levels of phenylalanine. We used the Pah enu2/enu2 PKU mouse model in short- and long-term studies of enzyme substitution therapy with PEGylated ...
