For those subjects who participated in the switch over, NaPBA was dosed three times daily (TID) with meals during the first week and the same PBA mole-equivalent dose of HPN-100 during the second week. If there were safety concerns regarding a single-step transition from NaPBA to HPN-100, at the investigator's discretion, the transition could occur in 2 steps such that in the second week, subjects might receive 50% of the PBA equivalent dose as NaPBA and 50% as HPN-100 before receiving 100% of the PBA equivalent dose as HPN-100 in the third week. Serial blood samples were collected for PK and blood ammonia assessments after each drug reached steady state, which was achieved approximately 4 days after initiation of 100% NaPBA or HPN-100 treatment.
