Brief Summary: Usual dietary therapies of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation disorders FAO are based on 3 strategies

limitation of lipid intake in the diet
supplementation of the diet with medium-chain triglycerides MCT for patients affected with disorders of long-chain FAO
some specific supplementations for example L-carnitine

These strategies are often ineffective The aim of the present study is to evaluate new therapeutic ways based on the underlying energetic defect observed in these disorders The long-term goal is to develop efficient therapies of these disorders
Detailed Description: The main specific aim of this study will be to determine the efficiency of odd-chain MCT TRIHEPTANOIN Tri-C7 and its metabolites BETA-HYDROXYPENTANOATE BHP and BETA-KETOPENTANOATE BKP as potential treatments by orale or enteral routes These compounds are efficiently used for energy production despite long-chain FAO enzyme defects They use alternative metabolic pathways and have anaplerotic effects due to propionyl-CoA production by the thiolytic cleavage of odd carbon ketone bodies

The efficiency of these compounds will be compared with conventional diet MCT for each patient Because of frequent phenotypic variations observed for each of these diseases each patient will be his own control

The same protocol study will be followed in 2 centers Dallas USA main investigator Dr CR Roe and Paris France main investigator Dr G TOUATI It is planned to include 80 patients 60 in Dallas 20 in Paris during the next 2 years The patients will be affected with 6 proven defects that are specific defects of long-chain FAO carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 CPT1 carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase CAT carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 CPT2 very-long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase VLCAD L-3-hydroxy-acyl-CoA dehydrogenase LCHAD or trifunctional protein MTP

The used methodology will be a control randomized study to compare the efficiency of 2 diet therapies TRIHEPTANOIN versus conventional MCT The studied parameters will depend on each disease and will depend on the affected organs in each patient Main studied clinical parameters will be survival rate number of metabolic acute decompensation frequency and severity of hypoglycemias frequency and severity of rhabdomyolyses evolution of cardiac or hepatic manifestations muscular strength and quality of life Main studied biological parameters will be TRIHEPTANOIN use during meal tests modifications of plasma acylcarnitines profile modifications of urinary organic acids blood measurements of CPK and transaminases Cardiac echographies will be performed for the follow-up of cardiomyopathies ergometric testing and strength tests will be performed for disorders that affect muscular function
