About this trial
This is a Phase 1/2, multinational, open-label, study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an intravenous infusion of GNT0003 in patients with Crigler-Najjar aged ≥10 years and requiring phototherapy. Patients will received a single administration of GNT0003 and will be followed for safety and efficacy of approximately 60 months (5 years):
* a follow-up of approximately 12 months (48 weeks) * a long term follow-up of approximately 48 months (4 years), in order to be in line with the latest EMEA Guideline on follow-up of patients administered with gene therapy medicinal products, released on 22 Oct.2009 by the Committee for medicinal products for human use.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Proportion of patients having received the selected dose of GNT0003 with serum bilirubin ≤ 300µmol/L within 48 meeks after GNT0003 administration and without phototherapy from week 16
Decrease of total Serum bilirubin level after interruption of daily phototherapy (Efficacy); change in serum total biliirubin from baseline to week 48
Incidence of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events or Treatement Serious Adverse Events
Incidence of AE/SAE evaluated by changes in laboratory parameters, vital signs, physical examination, reported from baseline to each visit study. Clinically relevant abnormal findings on Laboratory values, Vital Signs, Physical findings will be reported as Adverse Events. Incidence and Severity of Adverse Events for each body system will be presented for each dose level and summarized overall.
