KAMPER: Observational Study on the Long Term Safety of Kuvan® Treatment in Patients With Hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) Due to Phenylketonuria (PKU) or BH4 Deficiency
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Kuvan® is a synthetic copy of a body's own substance called tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). BH4 is required by the body to use an amino acid called phenylalanine in order to build another substance called tyrosine.
Kuvan® received marketed authorisation in Europe in December 2008 and is now available in several European countries for the treatment of Hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA).
The primary objective is to assess the long-term safety in subjects treated with Kuvan®.
Secondary objectives are to provide additional information regarding:
-
Safety in specific subject groups (elderly, pediatric, pregnant women and subjects with renal or hepatic insufficiency).
-
Growth and neurocognitive outcomes for subjects with hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) who are receiving treatment with Kuvan®.
-
Progress and outcome of pregnancy for women with HPA who become pregnant while receiving treatment with Kuvan® (these women will be enrolled in a dedicated sub-registry).
-
Assessment of adherence to diet and to Kuvan®.
-
Assessment of long-term sensitivity to Kuvan®treatment.
