About this trial
The purpose of this study is to measure efficacy and safety of pegtibatinase treatment compared with placebo in participants with classical HCU receiving standard of care. Study details include:
* Total Study duration: up to 38 weeks * Screening:
* Initial Screening duration: up to 4 weeks * Pre-treatment Diet Standardization Period duration: up to 6 weeks * Blinded Treatment Duration: 24 weeks
* 2-week blinded dose titration period * 22-week blinded assessment period * Safety Follow-Up: 4 weeks after last dose (as applicable for those not enrolling in the long term extension study, ENSEMBLE)
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change from baseline in plasma tHcy levels - Weeks 6 to 12
Change between baseline and average of 6 to 12 week (6, 8, 10, and 12 week) plasma tHcy levels in participants receiving pegtibatinase vs. placebo. Baseline tHcy level defined as average of Week -3, Week -1, and Day 1 pre-dose plasma tHcy
Secondary outcomes
Change from baseline in plasma tHcy levels - Weeks 16 to 24
Change between baseline and average of 16 to 24 week (16, 20, and 24 week) plasma tHcy levels in participants receiving pegtibatinase vs. placebo. Baseline tHcy level defined as average of Week -3, Week -1, and Day 1 pre-dose plasma tHcy
