New depression drug NH102 begins human safety testing
NCT ID NCT07324408
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-stage trial tested the safety and tolerability of a new drug called NH102 in 40 healthy adults. Participants received either the drug or a placebo to check for side effects and how the drug moves through the body. The study is complete, but it does not yet test if NH102 works for depression.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
NH102 (oral tablet)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option for depression.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 trial in healthy volunteers, not people with depression. It only tests safety and dosing, not whether the drug works for depression. Many drugs fail at this stage.
