Inclusion Criteria: * Aged ≥ 18 years, sex unrestricted; * Definitive diagnosis of Wilson disease (WD) based on: (i) or (ii) + (iii) and (iv), or (i) or (ii) + (v); (i) Neurological and/or psychiatric symptoms; (ii) Unexplained liver injury; (iii) Reduced serum ceruloplasmin and/or elevated 24-hour urinary copper; (iv) Positive corneal Kayser-Fleischer (K-F) ring; (v) Biallelic pathogenic ATP7B variants confirmed by segregation analysis and variant pathogenicity assessment; * Serum ceruloplasmin concentration \< ½ × lower limit of normal (LLN); * Willing and able to comply with all study procedures, and has provided written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: Subjects meeting ANY of the following criteria will be excluded: 1. Screening serum anti-AAV5 neutralizing antibody titre \> 1:100. 2. Clinically significant laboratory abnormality at screening or baseline: 1. ALT or AST ≥ 5 × ULN, direct bilirubin \> 1 × ULN, or albumin \< 1 × LLN; 2. Blood ammonia \> 1 × ULN. 3. Renal impairment (any degree). 4. Current hepatic decompensation or history of hepatic decompensation. 5. Liver stiffness measurement (LSM) ≥ 15 kPa by transient elastography at screening. 6. History of acute liver failure from any cause. 7. Evidence of advanced liver disease defined by either: 1. MELD score ≥ 12, or 2. Child-Pugh score ≥ 7. 8. Severe neuro-psychiatric manifestations that, in the investigator's opinion, could compromise subject safety or interfere with study participation. 9. Positive for HIV antibody, hepatitis C antibody, Treponema pallidum antibody, or hepatitis B surface antigen. 10. Contraindications to glucocorticoid therapy judged by the investigator (e.g., uncontrolled hypertension, systemic fungal infection, glaucoma, osteoporosis, active tuberculosis). 11. Concurrent conditions that may interfere with study conduct or assessment, including significant gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, renal, endocrine, haematological, immunological, neurological or psychiatric disorders other than Wilson disease. 12. Pregnant or lactating women. 13. Women of child-bearing potential or fertile men who plan to conceive within 1 year after dosing or are unwilling to use highly effective contraception. 14. Body-mass index ≥ 24 kg/m². 15. History of severe hypersensitivity to foods or drugs, including recombinant proteins. 16. Vaccination within 2 weeks prior to planned dosing. 17. Prior exposure to any gene-therapy product. 18. Participation in any other clinical trial (WD-related or not) within 3 months before screening. 19. Any other condition or circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator, renders the subject unsuitable for the study (e.g., poor compliance).
