Gene therapy trial aims to fix enzyme defect in fabry disease

NCT ID NCT06270316

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing a single-dose gene therapy called AMT-191 in 12 adult men with classic Fabry disease. The therapy uses a harmless virus to deliver a working copy of the GLA gene to the liver, so the body can produce the missing enzyme. The main goals are to check safety and see how the drug behaves in the body.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
AMT-191 (a gene therapy using a harmless virus to deliver a working copy of the GLA gene)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a one-time gene therapy that helps the body produce the missing enzyme, potentially reducing the need for regular enzyme infusions.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial with only 12 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Gene therapies can have side effects like immune reactions, and long-term effects are unknown.
