NCT ID NCT07587697
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-stage trial compares a new orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) of tafamidis to the standard capsule in 15 healthy adults. Participants receive single doses of each form under fasting conditions to measure drug levels in the blood. The goal is to see if the ODT works the same as the capsule, potentially offering a more convenient option for patients who have trouble swallowing pills.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that the new orally disintegrating tablet works as well as the current capsule, offering a more convenient option for patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small study in healthy people, not patients. It only checks blood levels, not whether the drug actually treats disease. The new form might not prove equivalent.
