- W153781960 abstract "Introduction: Hyperphenylalaninemia by phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency (HPAPAH) is an inborn error of metabolism in which increased serum levels of phenylalanine (Phe) occur. Recent studies on several populations showed that patients with HPA-PAH can have their serum levels reduced when receiving oral tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). Objective: to identify in a sample of Brazilian HPA-PAH the patients who are responsive to the oral administration of BH4. Methods: the following inclusion criteria were used: diagnosis of HPA-PAH, age ≥ 7 years, on dietary treatment and Phe levels ≥ 6 mg/dL in all tests performed one year prior to the inclusion in this study. On the day before the BH4 challenge (Day 1) 3 blood samples were obtained to measure Phe levels. Blood samples were also obtained at time points 0, 4, 8 hours (Day 2) and 24 h (Day 3) after the intake of the medication. Phe levels were determined by tandem mass spectrometry. Criteria used to define responsiveness to BH4 were: Criterion 1: Phe reduction ≥30% 8 hours after BH4 administration; Criterion 2: Phe reduction ≥30% 24 hours after BH4 administration. Results: a total of 18 patients with a mean age of 14 years were included in this study; of those, 66.7% were male. Eleven presented the classical form of the disease and 3, the atypical form. Three patients (classical form: 1, atypical form: 2) and 5 (classical form: 2; atypical form: 2; undefined form: 1) were considered responsive to BH4 according to criteria 1 and 2, respectively. Phe serum levels on the Day 1 did not show any change on the established time point schedule (p=0.523). However, when comparing levels of Phe between Days 1 and 2, significant variation was found (p=0.006). The phenotype – genotype association analysis of patients with available data (n=6) showed that the association is multifactorial. Conclusion: In accordance with the literature, our findings show that many Brazilian patients with HPA-PAH can benefit from the oral administration of BH4." @default.
