Methods Allocation: randomized
Endpoint classification: safety and efficacy trial
Intervention model: parallel assignment
Masking: double blind (participant, caregiver, investigator, outcome assessor)
Primary purpose: treatment
Participants People with PKU. 8 years to 65 years
Interventions Oral sapropterin dihydrochloride (20 mg/kg/day) versus placebo
Outcomes Primary outcome measures
Evaluate the therapeutic effects of sapropterin dihydrochloride on the symptoms of ADHD and on global function compared to placebo, in subjects with a blood phe level reduction after treatment
ADHD change will be measured as a change in ADHD from baseline to week 13 using the Attention‐Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale and Adult ADHD Self‐Report Scale (ADHD RS/ASRS) measurement
Global function will be measured as a change in global function using the Clinical Global Impression‐Improvement (CGI‐I) scale rating compared from baseline to week 13.
 
 Secondary outcome measures
Evaluate the therapeutic effects of sapropterin dihydrochloride on the symptoms of anxiety and depression compared to placebo, in subjects with a blood phe level reduction after treatment
 Evaluate the durability of any therapeutic effects of sapropterin dihydrochloride on neuropsychiatric symptoms and global function of subjects who have a blood phe level reduction after treatment.
 Determine if sapropterin dihydrochloride has a therapeutic effect on neuropsychiatric symptoms in PKU people who do not have a blood phe reduction after treatment
 Assess the safety of sapropterin dihydrochloride when administered as therapy to these participants
Notes Estimated completion date: January 2013. Estimated enrolment: 200 participants
