Phenylketonuria (PKU)
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is a single-arm, open-label, dose-escalation, exploratory study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a single administration of GS1168 Injection in Chinese adult phenylketonuria (PKU) with PAH mutation.
Interventions
The dose levels are as follows: 1. A single intravenous administration of GS1168 injection at dose level 1; 2. A single intravenous administration of GS1168 injection at dose level 2; 3. A single intravenous administration of GS1168 injection at dose level 3.
