Product Name: Phenoptin
Product Code: T1401
Pharmaceutical Form: Tablet

Primary Outcome(s)
Primary end point(s): The percentage of subjects who experience a response to Phenoptin on Day 8 will be calculated, with response defined as a reduction in blood Phe level of = or > 30% compared with baseline in subjects with a baseline Phe of < 1200 mmol/L or a reduction of = or > 50% in subjects with a baseline Phe of = or >1200 mmol/L. In addition, the mean change in blood Phe levels at Day 8 will be estimated in the two baseline strata (<1200 mmol/L and = or > 1200 mmol/L).
Main Objective: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the degree and frequency of response to Phenoptin treatment, as demonstrated by a reduction in blood phenylalanine (Phe) level, among subjects with phenylketonuria (PKU) who have elevated blood Phe levels.

Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of this study are as follows:

To evaluate the safety of Phenoptin treatment in this subject population·

To identify individuals in this subject population who respond to Phenoptin treatment with a reduction in blood Phe level
