Pegvaliase (trade name Palynziq) is a medication for the treatment of the genetic disease phenylketonuria.[2] Chemically, it is a pegylated derivative of the enzyme phenylalanine ammonia-lyase that metabolizes phenylalanine to reduce its blood levels.[3]

It was approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in the United States in 2018.[2]
