Can a single gene therapy dose keep working for 14 years?
NCT ID NCT06805695
First seen Aug 31, 2026 · Last updated Sep 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows people who received an investigational gene therapy in an earlier iECURE trial for a urea cycle disorder, a condition that can cause dangerous ammonia buildup. Researchers will track safety, side effects, and whether the therapy's effects last over up to 14.5 years. They will also collect health data from participants who were enrolled but never dosed, to understand the natural course of the disease. The goal is to learn how durable and safe the treatment is over the long term.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- No intervention (observational follow-up study)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this follow-up could confirm whether a single gene therapy dose provides lasting benefit and safety over many years for people with urea cycle disorders.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, long-term observational study, not a treatment trial. It cannot prove the therapy works, and results depend on the small number of participants who join.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Enrolled in an iECURE parent protocol and have either completed or discontinued that protocol 2. Participant parent(s)/LAR is willing and able to adhere to the protocol requirements. 3. Consent was obtained by the participants parent(s)/LAR (and participant assent, where applicable), prior to any study-related data being collected. Exclusion Criteria: 1\. Participants who enroll into an interventional drug or gene therapy clinical trial utilizing an IP other than the IP provided in the parent protocol will be excluded from this protocol.
