The Assessment of Copper Parameters in Wilson Disease Participants on Standard of Care Treatment
NCT02763215 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This was a 24-month study to assess copper parameters in participants with Wilson disease (WD) treated with standard of care (SoC) medications. After providing informed consent, participants meeting all inclusion and no exclusion criteria were enrolled into the study as outpatients. The participants' routine clinic visits were scheduled according to the standard clinical practice at the study center and at the discretion of the treating physician at approximate 6-month intervals. At the time of enrollment, participants were receiving SoC medications for the treatment of WD, which could include penicillamine, trientine, zinc, or a combination of a copper chelator and zinc. If treatment was interrupted or stopped during the course of the study, participants continued in the study and biological samples and clinical data were continued to be collected for the full 24-month study period. Dosing with SoC agents was individualized and managed by the treating physician at the study center according to standard clinical practice at the site.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT02763215
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT02763215 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 64 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Alexion Pharmaceuticals, which has 109 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Wilson Disease appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Standard of Care Medications is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT02763215 reports 10 study locations spanning 6 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include Other, Connecticut, Illinois. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
