Safety and Efficacy of 22 Weeks of Treatment With Sapropterin Dihydrochloride in Patients With Phenylketonuria

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics, Part A, 2008
AbstractPhenylketonuria (PKU) is an inherited metabolic disease characterized by phenylalanine (Phe) accumulation, which can lead to neurocognitive and neuromotor impairment. Sapropterin dihydrochloride, an FDA‐approved synthetic formulation of tetrahydrobiopterin (6R‐BH4, herein referred to as sapropterin) is effective in reducing plasma Phe ...

Use of sapropterin dihydrochloride in maternal phenylketonuria. A European experience of eight cases

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2014
AbstractSapropterin dihydrochloride (SD) is the first drug treatment for phenylketonuria (PKU), but due to the lack of data, its use in maternal PKU must be undertaken with caution as noted in the FDA and EMEA labels. We collected data from eight pregnancies in PKU women treated with SD and we analysed the phenotypes of these patients, their ...

Sapropterin dihydrochloride: A new drug and a new concept in the management of phenylketonuria

Drugs of Today, 2010
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is characterized by persistent hyperphenylalaninemia, due to mutations in the gene coding for phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH). If untreated, patients develop profound mental retardation. The principal treatment for PKU is lifelong dietary phenylalanine restriction, requiring the administration of special phenylalanine-free protein

START, a Double Blind, Placebo-Controlled Pharmacogenetic Test of Responsiveness to Sapropterin Dihydrochloride in Phenylketonuria Patients

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2012
Sapropterin dihydrochloride, a synthetic tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), works as a chaperone of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) in phenylketonuria (PKU) to facilitate and stabilize folding of PAH into its most active conformation. No standard pharmacogenetic tests exist to identify responsive genotypes.

Safety of extended treatment with sapropterin dihydrochloride in patients with phenylketonuria: Results of a phase 3b study

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2011
Phenylketonuria (PKU) results from impaired breakdown of phenylalanine (Phe) due to deficient phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) activity. Sapropterin dihydrochloride (sapropterin, Kuvan®) is the only US- and EU-approved pharmaceutical version of naturally occurring 6R-BH(4), the cofactor required for PAH activity.
