What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a new mRNA drug called DSL101 in 18 adults with Wilson disease, a genetic condition that causes copper buildup. The drug is designed to help the body produce a protein that controls copper. Participants receive low, medium, or high doses by IV every four weeks. The main goal is to check safety, but researchers will also measure copper levels in urine and blood to see if the treatment works.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
DSL101 (ATP7B mRNA/LNP)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a treatment that helps the body manage copper levels, potentially reducing symptoms and complications of Wilson disease.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small trial (18 people) focused on safety. It may not show clear benefit, and risks like infusion reactions or immune responses are possible.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age ≥18 years old, gender not limited. 2. Meet the diagnostic criteria f Wilson's Disease in "Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Wilson's Disease (2022 Edition)", with a Leipzig score ≥4, at least one year between diagnosis and screening; ceruloplasmin level \<0.1g/L. 3. Patinets with Wilson's disease confirmed by laboratory tests to have double-chromosome mutations in the ATP7B gene. 4. Low copper diet for at least six months befoer screening and willing to continue low copper diet during study. 5. Fertile subjects agreed to adopt reliable contrraceptive methods from the screening until 6 months after the last administration. 6. The subjects are atable patients with WD who have been trasted for at least six months without drug or dose changes for at least 6 momths at the time of screening , and have continuously used standard treatments \[SOC, such as D-penicillamine, sodiu dihydroxypropane sulfonate, dimercaptosuccinic acid, trientine, and zinc preparations (zinc acetate, zinc gluconate, zinc sulfate)\] for at least 6 months screening, and allowed subjects to continue with their prior SOC treatment. 7. The subject's condition was fully controlled after treatment, and its definition must meet all of the following conditions: 1. Serum NCC level ≥ 25 μg/L and ≤ 150 μg/L; 2. Urinary copper ≥100 μg/24 hours and ≤900 μg/24 hours;; 3. ALT \< 2 times of upper limit of normal value (ULN); 4. The investigator believes that no other laboratory values or clinical symptoms would stop current standard therapy; 8. Subjects with good compliance, who can understand and cooperate to complete the requirements of protocol. 9. The subjects voluntarily participated in the trial and signed the informed consent form. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Allergy or intolerance to the investigational drug. 2. Wilson's disease is accompanied by severe complications such as neurological and mental disorders. 3. History of liver transplantation. 4. Other liver-related diseases and clinical symptoms that can cause liver injury, such as acute and chronic hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, autoimmune liver disease, drug-induced liver injury, liver cirrhosis, liver ascites, esophageal varices, hepatic encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, liver failure, liver malignancy, etc.; Subjects with Model for end-stage liver disease score (MELD)\>13. 5. Other diseases that can cause hemolysis or anemia, such as erythrocytosis, Mediterranean anemia, hemolytic anemia, various causes of infection, large area burns, etc. 6. Other diseases that can cause dysfunction of the nervous system, such as Parkinson's disease, Parkinson syndrome, various causes of dystonia, chorea, primary tremor, epilepsy, mental abnormalities (such as history of schizophrenia or suicide attempts), etc. 7. Screening period laboratory examination indicators: 1. Hemoglobin \< 90 g/L; 2. Creatinine clearance ≤30 mL/min, or glomerular filtration rate \<45 mL/min/1.73 m²; 3.
