Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, BMN 307, to see if it is safe and effective in treating adults with PKU who have PAH deficiency.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with Phenylketonuria (PKU), a condition where the body can't break down an amino acid called phenylalanine due to PAH deficiency. Participants must have high levels of phenylalanine in their blood and be willing to maintain their current diet, avoid liver-damaging substances, use contraception, and follow study rules.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests BMN 307, a gene therapy intended to correct the genetic defect causing PKU. It's given once to see if it's safe and effective at lowering phenylalanine levels. The study gradually increases doses among participants who are closely monitored over time.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects aren't specified but may include reactions related to gene therapy such as immune responses, discomfort at injection site or general symptoms like fever or fatigue. Long-term safety monitoring is part of this early-phase trial.
