NCT ID NCT07571200
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at the long-term safety of an experimental drug called LY4256984 for people with ALS. It enrolls up to 32 participants who have completed a prior ALS trial. The study will follow them for at least 96 weeks to see how well the drug is tolerated over time.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- LY4256984
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help confirm that these experimental drugs are safe enough to use in larger trials for ALS.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early (Phase 1) study with only 32 people. It focuses on safety, not effectiveness, so it may not lead to a treatment.
