What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This early-stage trial evaluates the safety and tolerability of an experimental drug called LY4405094 in healthy volunteers and people with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers will measure how much of the drug enters the bloodstream and the fluid around the brain, and in Alzheimer's participants, they'll track levels of a key Alzheimer's-related protein. The study aims to understand how the drug behaves in the body and whether it might be a future treatment option.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
LY4405094, an experimental drug given intravenously or under the skin
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new treatment that targets Alzheimer's-related proteins in the brain, potentially slowing the disease.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 1 study focused on safety and dosing, so it's too soon to know if LY4405094 will work. Possible risks include allergic reactions and side effects from the drug.
