First seen Feb 22, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This early-stage study tested a single injection of a new drug called EDP167 in 40 healthy adults and people with mild high cholesterol. The main goal was to check if the drug is safe and how the body processes it. EDP167 works by targeting a protein linked to cholesterol levels, but more research is needed to know if it can help control the condition long-term.
