Glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSDIa) subjects retain a limited capacity for endogenous glucose production (EGP). To date, the origin of residual EGP in GSDIa patients is unknown. Either increased glycogen debranching or lysosomal glycogen breakdown can account for residual EGP in GSDIa. Innovative treatments for GSDIa (e.g. AAV8-mediated gene therapy and mRNA therapy) are being developed.Therefore, longitudinal minimally-invasive monitoring of outcomes after therapeutic interventions in GSD Ia subjects becomes warranted. The primary objective is to test the feasibility of EGP quantification in adult GSDIa subjects by stable isotopes after a single oral \[6,6-2H2\]glucose dose. Secondary objectives are to compare EGP assessed by a single oral \[6,6-2H2\]glucose dose (a) in GSDIa patients versus matched healthy participants, (b) among GSDIa patients, (c) in the pre-prandial state versus the fed state, (d) in the controlled hospital setting versus the home setting. Data collected from the continuous glucose monitoring data will also be compared

[6,6-2H2]glucose concentration in GSDIa patients
Timeframe: every 10 minutes within the first hour as well as 75, 90 and 120 minutes after the oral load
