This study looks at how adults with phenylketonuria (PKU) or hyperphenylalaninemia (HMP) cope with daily life, emotions, and relationships, with input from a relative who lives with them. The goal is to better understand the challenges so care can be improved.
This study looks at adults with phenylketonuria (PKU) using advanced testing (called multiomics) to understand how the condition affects the body. If you took part in a previous PKU study (ECOPHEN) and are willing to give a saliva sample for DNA analysis, this trial may be for you.
This study looks at whether checking phenylalanine levels at home more often helps people with classic PKU keep their levels in a healthy range. It may help you manage your diet and treatment more effectively.
This trial tests an experimental medication taken as a pill to see if it can help people with PKU manage their condition. The study will check if the pill is safe and how it affects blood phenylalanine levels.
This study is testing whether a new microtablet form of protein substitute is easy and acceptable for people with PKU to take. If you qualify, you'll take these tablets instead of your current protein substitute and share your experience with the research team.
