The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of injections of rAvPAL-PEG in subjects with PKU.
This is a Phase 1, open-label, single-dose study in approximately 35 subjects with PKU who are 16 to 50 years old. Seven cohorts are planned, each consisting of 5 subjects; the cohorts as planned are 0.001, 0.003, 0.01, 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, and 1.0 mg/kg. Increasing doses of rAvPAL-PEG will be assessed sequentially until the final dose is evaluated or any of the stopping criteria are reached. Subjects will each receive a single dose and then will be followed for a total of 42 days (6 weeks) with visits to the clinical research unit (CRU) as specified in the Schedule of Events Toxicity will be measured according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE, v 3).

rAvPAL-PEG will be administered as a single, SC injection at dose levels of 0.001, 0.003, 0.01, 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, and 1.0 mg/kg. The duration of treatment is a single dose of study drug with 42 days (6 weeks) of follow-up.

• To assess the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events of a single, subcutaneous (SC) injections of rAvPAL-PEG in subjects with PKU.
Specifically, safety was to be assessed by examining the incidence of all treatment-emergent adverse events reported during the study period and clinically significant changes in vital signs and clinical laboratory results, including development of rAvPAL-PEG antibodies.
Time frame: 6 weeks
• To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of single, SC injections of rAvPAL-PEG administered at escalating doses, in subjects with PKU.
Specifically, exposure, AUC- and Cmax -dose proportionality, Tmax , λz and t1/2
Time frame: 6 weeks
• To evaluate the effect of different dose levels of rAvPAL-PEG on blood Phe concentrations in subjects with PKU.
Specifically, exposure, AUC- and Cmax -dose proportionality, Tmax , λz and t1/2
Time frame: 6 weeks
