About this study

The investigators aimed to identify factors associated with symptoms and features of Wilson disease from a large cohort during long-term follow-up

Read the detailed description

Wilson disease is an autosomal recessive disorder that impairs copper homeostasis and is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in ATP7B, which encodes a copper-transporting P-type ATPase. Patients have variable clinical manifestations and laboratory test results, resulting in diagnostic dilemmas. Therefore, the investigators aimed to identify factors associated with symptoms and features of Wilson disease, thereby give timely diagnosis for patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Serum ceruloplasmin

    Serum ceruloplasmin levels were collected among patients with wilson disease. After confirming a non-Gaussian distribution, the reference range of serum ceruloplasmin level was determined.

    Measured: From 2004 through 2030

  2. Urinary Copper Excretion

    The measurement of 24-hour urine copper excretions were collected and measured.

    Measured: From 2004 through 2030

  3. Kayser-Fleischer Rings

    The presence of Kayser-Fleischer Rings among patients with wilson disease were confirmed via slit lamp.

    Measured: From 2004 through 2030

  4. Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging of all patients were collected and analyzed.

    Measured: From 2004 through 2030

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.

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?

Contact Yi Dong, Ph.D. (+8618367129345, dongyi720@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Serum ceruloplasmin (time frame: From 2004 through 2030). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 16 Jul 2021.
