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
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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
Cancelled before anyone took part.

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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This early-stage trial tests a single dose of a new biologic drug, SBT777101, in 24 adults with moderate-to-severe hidradenitis suppurativa (a chronic skin condition causing painful abscesses and tunnels). The main goal is to check safety and side effects at increasing dose levels. Researchers will also look at how the drug moves through the body and any signs it might reduce disease activity.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
SBT777101 (a biologic drug given as a single dose)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for hidradenitis suppurativa that reduces painful skin abscesses and inflammation.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 24 people, focused on safety. It is too small and early to know if the drug actually helps symptoms, and side effects are unknown.
