Participant Flow

This was a single-center study.

A total of 52 subjects were randomized into the study and received study drug. Of these, 4 subjects were enrolled under an earlier version of the protocol that used different eligibility criteria and were monitored according to different data collection procedures. Only the 48 subjects enrolled under the final protocol were included in the analyses.

Population: ITT population

Total biopterin concentration area under the curve (AUC0-12hours) at the end of each regimen in subjects with endothelial dysfunction is theoretically the sum of BH4, BH2 and B. Biopterin is the metabolite of BH4 after oxidative conversion of BH4 and BH2 to biopterin. Total biopterin concentrations represent the summation of drug and metabolites: BH4, BH2 and B. The total biopterin concentrations can be converted to BH4 concentration using the conversion factor 2.150.

PAT measures pulse wave amplitude of the small arteries of the finger as a surrogate to assess endothelial function and arterial stiffness using a finger plethysmographic probe and 5-minute occlusion of the brachial artery. Endothelial dysfunction, a protocol inclusion criteria, is defined by an abnormal PAT of \< or = 1.70. Change is calculated as follows: end time measurement - starting time measurement.
