Tiny study tests safety of novel dead bacterium in healthy volunteers

NCT ID NCT07660107

First seen Jun 23, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026

Summary

This completed trial tested whether a heat-killed bacterium called KGA-10 (NeuroAlly) is safe and tolerable for healthy adults. Eight participants took either KGA-10 or a placebo daily for one week. Researchers tracked side effects and satisfaction using surveys. The study was very small and only looked at safety, not any health benefits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Heat-killed Mycolicibacterium petrae KGA-10 (a type of dead bacteria, also called NeuroAlly)

What this could lead to

If safe, this could pave the way for future studies testing KGA-10 for other health conditions.

What could go wrong

This was a very small, early safety study with only 8 people. It does not test whether KGA-10 has any health benefits.
