Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion

- Current blood Phe concentration of ≥600 µmol/L at Screening.
- Average blood Phe concentration of ≥600 µmol/L over the past 3 years, using available data.
- Willing and able to provide written, signed informed consent, or, in the case of participants under the age of 18, provide written assent (if required) and written informed consent by a parent or legal guardian, after the nature of the study has been explained, and prior to any research-related procedures.
- Willing and able to comply with all study procedures.
- Between the ages of 16 and 50 years, inclusive.
- Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at Screening and be willing to have additional pregnancy tests during the study.

- Any condition that, in the view of the Principal Investigator (PI), places the subject at high risk of poor treatment compliance or of not completing the study.
- Known hypersensitivity to rAvPAL PEG or its excipients.
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) concentration \> 2 times the upper limit of normal.
- Creatinine above the upper limit of normal.
- Donation of blood or plasma within 30 days prior to the administration of study drug.
- Use of any over-the-counter (OTC) medication, including vitamins, within 7 days prior to the administration of study drug, without evaluation and approval by the Investigator.
- Use of any prescription medication within 14 days prior to the administration of study drug without evaluation and approval by the Investigator.
- Treatment with any drug known to affect hepatic enzyme activity, including (but not limited to) barbiturates, phenothiazines, cimetidine, or carbamazepine, within 30 days prior to study drug administration.
- Use of any tobacco products within 60 days prior to study drug administration.
- Positive urine screen for use of nicotine (cotinine) or drugs of abuse (amphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, cocaine, cannabinoids, and opiates).
