Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary study parameters are phenylalanine and tyrosine concentrations. Their day to day variation (at specific time points) and variation throughout the day will be analysed. Next to this, mean phenylalanine and tyrosine concentrations with and without supplementation of phenylalanine will be analysed. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary outcome parameters are NTBC and succinylacetone concentrations. If doses of NTBC are high enough, it is hypothesized that the tyrosine degradation pathway is completely blocked. Thus, the metabolic product succinylacetone will not be formed. However, in regular patientcare increased succinylacetone concentrations are sometimes found. Thus, the question is whether NTBC concentrations are high enough during the complete day. Therefore, the variation of NTBC and the occurence of increased succinylacetone concentrations will be analysed. | — |
