First seen Jun 26, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial tests an injectable drug called GMDTC in 11 adults with high cadmium levels. The goal is to see if it safely helps the body get rid of cadmium through urine. Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo, and researchers will measure changes in cadmium levels and monitor for side effects.

Active substance
GMDTC for injection
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a treatment to help people with high cadmium levels excrete the metal and reduce long-term health risks.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early Phase IIa trial with only 11 people. It is designed mainly to check safety and how the drug works in the body, not yet to prove it is an effective treatment.
