Phase I/II Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of LY-M003 Injection in Adult Patients With Wilson's Disease

Inclusion Criteria:

1. The subject fully comprehends the purpose, design, methods and possible adverse events of the study, agrees to participate voluntarily and signs the informed consent form (ICF).
2. Patients with confirmed diagnosis of Wilson's disease (WD).
3. Subjects with Wilson's disease (WD) confirmed by laboratory testing to have biallelic ATP7B gene mutation or deletion.
4. The subjects are treated patients with Wilson's disease (WD) who have received standard therapy (e.g., D-penicillamine or zinc acetate) continuously for at least 6 months prior to screening.
5. Subjects have maintained a low-copper diet for at least 6 consecutive months prior to screening and will continue this dietary restriction throughout the study.
6. Subjects must agree to refrain from donating blood, organs, tissues or cells at any time after treatment.
7. Female subjects of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative pregnancy test.
8. Subjects and their partners must have no plans for pregnancy from screening through 6 months after study completion, and will voluntarily use effective contraception (e.g., abstinence, condoms). Subjects shall not plan to donate sperm or ova.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. AAV8 neutralizing antibody titer > 1:10 .
2. History of active gastrointestinal bleeding within the past 3 months.
3. Decompensated liver cirrhosis or advanced liver disease presenting with portal hypertension, ascites, splenomegaly, esophageal varices, hepatic encephalopathy, etc.
4. Subjects with other concomitant liver diseases as judged by the investigator, including autoimmune hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, primary biliary cholangitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and/or drug- or toxin-induced liver disease.
5. Subjects with severe hypersplenism complicated and requiring splenectomy as assessed 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. A history of non-compliance with copper chelators or zinc agents as assessed by the investigator within 6 months prior to screening.
9. Previously treated WD subjects with ALT and/or AST levels more than 5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN).
10. Subjects with severe neurological deficits or impairments that, in the investigator's judgment, compromise their safety and/or ability to participate in the study.
11. Hemoglobin < 90g/L.
12. Subjects with positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), positive hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody, positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody or positive treponema pallidum antibody.
13. Subjects with end-stage renal disease on dialysis (Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3 and above), or creatinine clearance < 60 mL/min.
14. Severe hyperlipidemia (triglycerides >1000 mg/dL);
15. Subjects who have received or plan to undergo bone marrow transplantation, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and/or major organ transplantation, including but not limited to liver transplantation and renal transplantation.
16. Subjects with clinically diagnosed severe cardiovascular diseases or those deemed by the investigator to have such conditions (e.g., New York Heart Association [NYHA] heart failure classification ≥ Class 3).
17. Subjects with uncontrolled concomitant diseases or infectious diseases as assessed by the investigator.
18. Subjects who are allergic to any ingredient of LY-M003 Injection.
19. Prior receipt of any type of gene therapy or cell therapy.
20. Use of systemic immunosuppressants or steroids within 3 months prior to administration (except for prophylactic immunosuppressive therapy specified in the protocol).
21. History of cancer within 5 years prior to screening, excluding completely resected non-melanoma skin cancer, non-metastatic prostate cancer and fully cured ductal carcinoma in situ.
22. Received live attenuated vaccines within 4 months prior to screening, or planned to receive such vaccines during the clinical trial.
23. Received treatment or intervention with other investigational drugs or study devices within 28 days or 5 half-lives (for drugs only) prior to screening, whichever is longer.
24. Pregnant women (or women planning pregnancy) or breastfeeding women.
25. Other conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, render the subject ineligible for study participation.
