New liquid form of maribavir tested in healthy adults
NCT ID NCT04131556
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This early-stage study tested two liquid versions of the drug maribavir (used to treat certain viral infections) to see how well they are absorbed, how they taste, and if they are safe compared to the current tablet. The study involved 20 healthy adults, not children, to gather initial data. The goal is to eventually develop a child-friendly formulation.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
maribavir
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a child-friendly liquid version of maribavir, making it easier to give to children who need it.
What could go wrong
This is a very early (Phase 1) study in only 20 healthy adults, not children. The liquid formulations may not work as well or taste acceptable, and the study was terminated early, so results are limited.
