Summary

This non-randomized, open-label study was approximately one year in duration and consisted of a short term NaPBA to HPN-100 switchover part involving two overnight stays followed by a 12-month long term treatment period involving monthly visits.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Male and female subjects 29 days to 100 μmol/L and signs and symptoms indicative of hyperammonemia; subjects may be rescreened after their ammonia is controlled and they are clinically stable, at the discretion of the investigator
  • Use of any investigational drug within 30 days of Day 1
  • Active infection (viral or bacterial) or any other condition that may increase ammonia levels
  • Any clinical or laboratory abnormality of Grade 3 or greater severity according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.03, except Grade 3 elevations in ammonia and liver enzymes, defined as levels 5-20 times ULN (upper limit of normal)in alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), or gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) in a clinically stable subject
  • Any clinical or laboratory abnormality or medical condition that, at the discretion of the investigator, may put the subject at increased risk by participating in this study
  • Known hypersensitivity to PAA or PBA
  • Liver transplant, including hepatocellular transplant
  • Currently treated with Carbaglu® (carglumic acid)
