a Blood Phe levels during the extension period. b Blood Phe levels change in baseline during the extension period. The Month 1 visit in the extension period was only for patients who entered the extension period and who had received only a Phe-restricted diet in the 26-week study period. Range between dotted grey line indicates target range for blood Phe level. *Baselines are not contemporaneous; for the ‘sapropterin continuous’ group, the baseline was 26 weeks prior to that for the ‘sapropterin extension’ group (indicated by the dotted blue line in a). †p < 0.05 versus Baseline.
