Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Bile acid synthesis defect due to: o single enzyme deficiency in either: - 3ß-hydroxy-?5-C27-steroid oxidoreductase - ?4-3-oxosteroid-5ß-reductase - a-methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR) - cholesterol 7a-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) o OR Zellweger spectrum disorder ? At least one of the following hallmarks: steatorrhea (confirmed per local protocol), elevated transaminases, developmental delay, neurological symptoms
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Single enzyme deficiency patients will be excluded from participation when at least one of the following criteria is present: - Short life expectancy of 20 µmol/L) - Prolonged prothrombin time (PT > 15s not due to vitamin K deficiency) - Kidney dysfunction (eGFR 40µmol/L) - Allergy to one of the components of CA capsules. Zellweger spectrum disorder patients will be excluded from participation when at least one of the following criteria is present: - Increased liver enzymes during previous CA treatment - Normal biochemical parameters (THCA and/or DHCA =1.0 µmol/L) - Short life expectancy of 20 µmol/L) - Prolonged prothrombin time (PT > 15s not due to vitamin K deficiency) - Kidney dysfunction (eGFR 40µmol/L) - Allergy to one of the components of CA capsules.
