• At least 4 disabling paroxysmal movement disorder events in 6 week Run-in Period, reported in the daily electronic Glut1 DS symptom diary
• ≥80% compliance with daily electronic Glut1 DS symptom diary completion during the Run in Period
• Not on ketogenic diet (KD), modified KD, or ketosis-inducing modified-fat diet for at least 3 months prior to Screening
• Plasma level of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) ≤ 1 mmol/L (non-fasting) at Screening

• Participants of child-bearing potential or fertile males with partners of child-bearing potential who are sexually active must consent to use a highly effective method of contraception as determined by the site Investigator from the period following the signing of the informed consent through 30 days after last dose of study drug

You may not qualify if…

• Any known hypersensitivity to triheptanoin or safflower oil that, in the judgment of the Investigator, places the subject at increased risk for adverse effects

• Glut1 DS treatment regimen, including antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), should be stable for at least 30 days prior to Screening
• Use of any investigational product (drug, medical food, or supplement, including MCT oil, including coconut oil) within 30 days prior to Screening
• Has a concurrent disease or condition, or laboratory abnormality that, in the view of the Investigator, places the subject at high risk of poor treatment compliance or of not completing the study, or would interfere with study participation or introduces additional safety concerns
