About this trial

This is a Phase I/II clinical trial of gene therapy for treating Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) using a safety and efficacy improved self-inactivating lentiviral vector TYF-ARSA to functionally correct the genetic defect. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the direct gene transfer clinical protocol.
