Inclusion Criteria:
* Diagnosis of UCD (Urea Cycle Disorder) involving deficiencies of Carbamyl phosphate synthetase (CPS), Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC), or Arginosuccinate (ASS), confirmed via enzymatic, biochemical, or genetic testing
* Adult UCD subjects 18 years of age or older who are being treated with Buphenyl/Sodium phenylbuterate (NaPBA) for their UCD; subjects must be on a stable dose of NaPBA for at least 1 week prior to the Day 1 visit. Subjects who are not receiving NaPBA at the initial screening visit, but who have the potential to benefit from treatment, may start receiving NaPBA during the screening period and be enrolled as long as they are on a stable dose of NaPBA for at least 1 week prior to Day 1.
* No clinical evidence of hyperammonemia associated with an ammonia level of ≥ 100 μmol/L during the 2 weeks preceding screening
* Signed informed consent by subject
* Able to perform and comply with study activities, including blood draws and 24-hour urine samples
* Negative pregnancy test for all females of childbearing potential
* All females of childbearing age and all sexually active males must agree to use an acceptable method of contraception throughout the study.
