Summary

This study tests a new once-daily version of trientine against the standard drug penicillamine for people newly diagnosed with Wilson's disease, a genetic condition that causes copper buildup. About 38 children (aged 8+) and adults will take one of the two treatments for 48 weeks to see which controls copper levels better and is safer. Participants will have regular blood and urine tests and answer questionnaires about their well-being.
