Clinical Trial Summary

This early Phase trial is to prove the safety and efficacy of VGN-R09b to treat patients with AADC deficiency.


Clinical Trial Description

Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) is an enzyme responsible for the final step in the synthesis of neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin. AADC deficiency is a rare genetic disorder. VGN-R09b is a kind of Gene therapy with adeno-associated virus (AAV) serotype 9 (AAV9) driven human AADC (hAADC) being injected directly into striatum. This is a single-center, open, dose-climbing investigator-sponsored early-stage clinical study that included a dose-climbing phase and a dose-expanding phase. This study is to give preliminary evidence for the safety and efficacy of VGN-R09b treatment for patients with Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency. ;
