This study will investigate the effect of treatment with tiratricol (also called Triac) in young boys (≤30 months) with MCT8 deficiency (also called the Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS)). The hypothesis tested is that treatment with tiratricol will have a beneficial effect on the hypothyroid state in the brain as well as the hyperthyroid state in peripheral organs and tissues in these patients. Patients will initially be treated for 96 weeks with tiratricol, treatment effect on neurodevelopment impairment caused by hypothyroidism and peripheral thyrotoxicosis will be evaluated after 96 weeks treatment. Patients will be offered to continue on treatment for an additional 3 years.

Gross Motor Function Measure 88 (GMFM 88) total score
To evaluate the effects of tiratricol on neurodevelopment in young MCT8 deficiency patients, measured by the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM)-88 assessment. Potential result values range from 0 to 100%, the latter being representative for a 4-year old healthy child. A high score is equivalent to better/more neurodevelopment and is therefore a better outcome than a low score.
96 weeks, Year 3, Year 4 and Year 5
Bayley Scales of Infant Development III Gross Motor Skill Domain score
To evaluate the effect of tiratricol treatment on neurodevelopment measured by the Bayley Scales of Infant Development (BSID-III) Gross Motor Skill Domain score. Potential total raw scores range from 0-72, and can be age-adjusted before analysis. A high score is equivalent to better/more neurodevelopment and is therefore a better outcome than a low score

Because of the rarity of MCT8 deficiency and the small number of patients in this trial, individual patient data beyond what is reported in the upcoming manuscript will not be shared to safeguard patient privacy.
