NCT ID NCT04537377

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial tests a single dose of VTX-801 gene therapy in 4 adults with Wilson's disease, a rare condition where copper builds up in the body. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and can help control copper levels, possibly allowing patients to stop their usual medications. Researchers will follow participants for up to 5 years.
