First human trial launches for experimental PSTB100 drug
NCT ID NCT07702279
First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Sep 04, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This first-in-human study tests the safety and tolerability of PSTB100 tablets in healthy adults aged 18 to 55. Participants receive either a single or multiple doses of the drug or a placebo. Researchers measure how the body absorbs, processes, and eliminates PSTB100 to guide future studies.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

- PSTB100 tablets
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this early study could pave the way for future trials exploring PSTB100 as a potential treatment.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early Phase 1 trial focused on safety and dosing in healthy people, not on treating any disease. It may not lead to any therapeutic benefit.
