What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Dual vector DNA base editorGenetic

    The base editor is delivered using a dual vector adeno-associated virus (AAV) system and introduced into the child via intrathecal injection to correct the mutated CHD3 gene. The vital signs of the child will be closely monitored during treatment to assess possible acute adverse effects. The child will be followed up regularly after treatment to monitor the success of gene editing and the neurodevelopmental improvement of the child. Possible long-term adverse events will be closely monitored to assess the safety of the treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of drug-related serious adverse events

    Measured: 0-26 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Evaluate the changes using the Clinical Global impression Scale -Overall improvement (CGI-I)

    This 7-point scale (1 = very much improved, 7 = very much worse, etc.) is used by the clinician to assess the participant's overall performance status; higher scores indicate increased severity.

    Measured: 0-26 weeks

  2. Evaluate the changes in the Patient's Global Impressions of Improvement (PGI-I) scale

    This 7-point scale (1 = very much improved, 7 = very much worse, etc.) is used by the clinician to assess the participant's overall performance status; higher scores indicate increased severity.

    Measured: 0-26 weeks

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted6 Mar 2025
  2. Study start19 Feb 2025
  3. Primary completion31 Mar 2025
  4. Study completion31 Mar 2025

Why it stopped: The single participant died on 31 March 2025 from thrombotic microangiopathy, a serious adverse event assessed as definitely related to the study drug. Planned follow-up was not completed, and the study was terminated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Dual vector DNA base editor in people with Developmental Delay Disorder and Intellectual Disability, run by Yongguo Yu 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 4 inclusion and 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The single participant died on 31 March 2025 from thrombotic microangiopathy, a serious adverse event assessed as definitely related to the study drug. Planned follow-up was not completed, and the study was terminated.). Results are not available in the source record.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of drug-related serious adverse events (time frame: 0-26 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 30 Jul 2026.
