A Long-Term Safety Study of PTC923 in Participants With Phenylketonuria

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of PTC923 in participants with phenylketonuria, and to evaluate the changes from baseline in dietary phenylalanine (Phe)/protein consumption.

Phase

These are the different steps that a treatment goes through during clinical development before it is approved for use.

Phase 3

Placebo Controlled

In this type of study, some participants receive a “placebo,” which looks like the study treatment, but does not actually contain the active treatment.

This is the general nature of the study.

Trial Type
Interventional

Interventional

Participants in these studies are subject to an intervention by researchers. These trials are used to understand the effects of a particular intervention.

Blinding

Study participants know which treatments they might get if they join the trial, however during a trial they may not be informed which treatment they are actually taking. The act of not disclosing this information to the participant is known as “blinding.”

Intervention Type

This is a medicine, device, or other type of treatment that is being studied or is already approved for use. Interventions can also include behavior changes, like diet and exercise.

Primary Outcome

Primary Outcome

This is the most important measurement of the study and is used to help researchers evaluate the effect of a treatment.

Number of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

Timeframe: Baseline up to end of study (up to 4 years)

Change From Baseline in Dietary Phe/Protein Consumption at Week 26, Measured During Phe Tolerance Assessment Period

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 26

Secondary Outcome

Secondary Outcome

This measurement is a secondary measurement and is still important in helping researchers evaluate the effect of a treatment.
