NCT ID NCT06734234

First seen Jul 15, 2026 · Last updated Jul 16, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests an experimental drug called GSK4771261 for safety and how the body processes it. Part A involves healthy volunteers, and Part B includes people with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), a genetic condition that causes kidney cysts and can lead to kidney failure. Neither participants nor doctors know who receives the drug or a placebo. The goal is to see if the drug is safe enough to study further.

Active substance
an experimental drug called GSK4771261
What this could lead to
If safe and effective, GSK4771261 could point toward a new treatment for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), a condition that often leads to kidney failure.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small Phase 1 trial focused on safety, not on whether the drug works. Many drugs fail in early testing, and side effects are unknown.
