Summary

This study aims to see if long-term treatment with a drug called sepiapterin can help preserve normal brain development and thinking skills in children with phenylketonuria (PKU). It will enroll 56 children, from toddlers up to age 16, who have PKU. Researchers will track changes in intelligence scores and quality of life over time to see if the treatment helps control the disease and protect cognitive function.
