About this study

This study adopted an open, single-arm, non-randomized, dose-escalation research design, aiming to evaluate the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy, pharmacokinetic and immunogenicity characteristics of single and multiple intravenous infusions of DSL101 in patients with Wilson's disease.

Read the detailed description

In this study, low, medium and high dose groups were preset, the low dose group was accelerated titration group, and the medium and high dose groups used the traditional "3+3" method combined with Sentinel method for dose escalation.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events

    Measured: up to 56 weeks

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. Change in 24 hour urine copper

    Measured: up to week 20

  2. Change in sum total cpper [ serum copper bound by ceruloplasmin (NCC) ]

    Measured: up to week 20

  3. Change in serum free copper

    Measured: up to week 20

  4. Change from baseline in serum ceruloplasmin

    Measured: up to week20

  5. Change in serum iron concentration and serum ferritin concentration

    Measured: up to week 20

  6. Clinical laboratory test: Biochemistry - alanine aminotransferase (ALT)

    The physician will judge whether an abnormality is clinically significant

    Measured: up to week 20

  7. Change in the total score of the Unified Wilson Disease Rating Scale (UWDRS )

    The UWDRS scale consists of three parts: neurological, liver function and mental symptom. The higher scores mean a worse outcome.

    Measured: up to week 20

  10. Change from baseline in seurm ceruloplasmin activity

    Measured: up to week20

  11. Clinical laboratory test: Biochemistry - aspartate aminotransferase (AST)

    Measured: up to week 20

  12. Clinical laboratory test: Biochemistry - alkaline phosphatase (ALP)

    Measured: up to week 20

    Measured: up to week 20

  14. Clinical laboratory test: Biochemistry - total bilirubin (TBIL)

    Measured: up to week 20

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Group 1: DSL101 Low dose, Group 2: DSL101 Medium dose and Group 3: DSL101 High dose in people with Wilsons Disease, run by DSciLab Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 19 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events (time frame: up to 56 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Jan 2026.
