Key inclusion & exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

- Diagnosis of hyperphenylalaninemia at birth

- Age between 18 and 50 years

- Participated in study HSC-MS-110-0262

Exclusion Criteria:

- Peri-menopausal and menopausal women will be excluded because this is a time of
increased bone loss related to hormonal mediated factors.

- Patients taking bisphosphonates because it alters bone density. Therefore, bone
mineral density would reflect the biphosphonate intervention rather than their true
status.

- Pregnant women due to the hazard of radiation exposure during a DXA scan. In addition
women who have been pregnant or who have breastfed within one year of study enrollment
will be excluded because these are periods of rapid bone loss which would not reflect
the entity under study but would serve to confound the data.
