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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 single dose of LY-M003, a gene therapy that delivers a working copy of the ATP7B gene to liver cells. The goal is to see if it is safe and can reduce the need for standard Wilson disease medications. The study enrolls 18 adults and children with confirmed Wilson disease.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
LY-M003 (gene therapy using a harmless virus to deliver a working ATP7B gene to liver cells)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could reduce or eliminate the need for daily medication to manage copper buildup in Wilson disease patients.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small trial (18 people) focused on safety. Gene therapy can have side effects, and it may not work as hoped. Long-term benefits are uncertain.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. The subject must be able to fully understood the purpose, nature, method, and possible adverse effects of the study, must be able to voluntarily participate in the study and voluntarily able to provide the written informed consent form (ICF). 2. Patients diagnosed with Wilson Disease . 3. Wilson Disease (WD) patients confirmed by laboratory tests to have biallelic mutations in the ATP7B gene. 4. Subjects must be treatment-experienced to WD who have received standard treatment (eg, D-penicillamine or zinc acetate) for at least 6 months prior to the screening period. 5. Subjects must restrict food with high copper content for at least 6 months prior to screening and continue this restriction during the entire duration of study participation. 6. Subjects must be willing to refrain from donating blood, organs, tissues or cells during study participation. 7. Negative pregnancy test in women of childbearing potential (WOCBP). 8. Subjects and their partners who have no childbearing plans from the screening period to 6 months after the end of the study and are willing to adopt effective contraceptive measures (e.g., abstinence, condoms, etc.); subjects have no plans to donate sperm or ova. Exclusion Criteria: 1. AAV8 neutralizing antibody titer \> 1:10 . 2. Active gastrointestinal bleeding within the past 3 months. 3. Decompensated cirrhosis or advanced hepatic disease, manifested as portal hypertension, ascites, splenomegaly, esophageal varices, hepatic encephalopathy, etc. 4. Subjects with other liver diseases as determined by the investigator, such as immune hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, primary biliary cholangitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and/or drug or toxic liver disease 5. Subjects considered as complicated with severe hypersplenism and requiring splenectomy as judged by the investigator. 6. Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) Score \> 13. 7. Other disorders of copper metabolism, such as chronic cholestatic liver diseases, disorders of glycosylation, copper metabolism disorders, etc. 8. History of noncompliance with copper chelators or zinc agents within 6 months prior to screening, as determined by the investigator. 9. Subjects with treatment-experienced WD who have ALT and/or AST 5 times greater than the upper limit of normal (ULN). 10. Severe central nervous system symptoms urgent for intensive hospitalization judged by the investigator. 11. Hemoglobin \< 90 g/L. 12. A history of epileptic seizures or other diseases that may potentially affect compliance with study procedures within 6 months prior to the screening period. 13. Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive, hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody positive, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody positive or Treponema pallidum antibody positive. 14.
