Understanding Gene Therapy

Gene therapy is the introduction, removal, or change of genetic material in the cells of a person. For certain rare genetic diseases, gene therapy offers the potential for treatment that could have a significant impact on the lives of patients.

Wilson Disease patient representation Wilson Disease patient representation

Patient portrayal.

Wilson Disease is a rare genetic disorder caused by an inability to remove excess copper from the body. Too much copper can lead to issues like liver disease and neurological complications.

If you are thinking about joining a study, our Patient Enrollment Liaison (PEL) team is here to help. Every member of our PEL team has a robust professional background and clinical expertise and experience to help answer your questions. Your PEL team member will assist in exploring Ultragenyx clinical and non-interventional clinical trials and related sites where you could be considered for enrollment. Your PEL is here to make the process as easy as possible.

To speak with a PEL about current and future medical research opportunities, please email our PEL team at [email protected].

When you voluntarily submit your personal data, Ultragenyx stores and processes this information in an electronic database consistent with our Privacy Policy. Ultragenyx will use this information to contact you to fulfill your request regarding Ultragenyx research opportunities.

Clinical and nonclinical studies provide invaluable information to treat, diagnose, or discover new breakthroughs in treating rare and ultra-rare diseases. By choosing to participate in research, you may help advance treatments, provide crucial insights, and ultimately improve the quality of life for others living with a rare or ultra-rare disease. You might also benefit from learning more about your condition, gain access to specific care, or achieve faster access to treatment. All efforts of participation, big and small, can make a difference.

Ultragenyx is leading the future of rare disease medicine. We leverage our experience, insight, and commitment to help move the rare disease community forward. Our primary goal is to provide medicines to those with limited options, and to help patients face rare disease head on with courage and confidence.
