Urea cycle disorder or inherited hyperammonemia

This Phase 3 trial tests a gene therapy called DTX301 for people with late-onset OTC deficiency, a rare genetic disorder that causes dangerous ammonia buildup. The study involves 37 participants and compares the gene therapy to a placebo. The goal is to see if the treatment can h…

This study follows 11 adults with late-onset OTC deficiency who received a single dose of gene therapy (DTX301) in an earlier trial. Researchers are checking long-term safety and how well the body makes urea and controls ammonia levels. The goal is to see if the treatment remains…

This early-stage study tests a new drug called CMP-CPS-001 in healthy adults and women who carry a gene for OTC deficiency, a rare liver condition that can cause dangerous ammonia buildup. The main goal is to check the drug's safety and how the body processes it. Participants rec…

This study offers voluntary screening for newborns in North Carolina to detect a wide range of rare health conditions early. Using a small blood sample already collected at birth, the program tests for dozens of disorders, including spinal muscular atrophy, cystic fibrosis, and m…

Citrin deficiency is a rare, underdiagnosed condition that affects the liver and metabolism. There is no cure, and patients manage symptoms with lifelong diet changes. This study analyzes blood samples from 100 patients to find biomarkers that could help track disease severity an…

This study looks at whether simple blood tests and special scans can detect liver scarring in people with urea cycle disorders. Researchers will enroll 62 participants across five U.S. centers. The goal is to find noninvasive ways to monitor liver health, avoiding the need for li…

This study looks at 45 people with certain changes in the WFS1 gene to figure out if they have a milder, dominant form of wolfram-like syndrome instead of the more severe recessive form. Researchers will use eye scans (OCT) to see if the gene changes are linked to specific eye pr…

This study looks at how the liver processes energy and removes ammonia in people with citrin deficiency, a rare genetic disorder. Researchers will give participants special 'labeled' water, fructose, and ammonium chloride to track liver activity. By comparing 10 patients with 10 …
