Official title A Study of Single and Multiple Ascending Doses of H021 in Healthy Participants
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06627556
What this study is testing
What is H021?
H021 is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for ulcerative colitis.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of H021 tablets following oral administration of single and multiple ascending doses in healthy participants.
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
