NCT ID NCT06612970
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-stage trial is testing the safety of a single dose of HB0056, a new bispecific antibody, in 46 healthy adults aged 18 to 55. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the drug or a placebo, and researchers will monitor for side effects and how the drug moves through the body. The study does not aim to treat any disease but to gather essential safety data before testing in patients.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- HB0056 (a bispecific antibody targeting TSLP and IL-11)
- What this could lead to
- If safe, this could pave the way for future studies of HB0056 in diseases involving inflammation or immune responses.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early Phase 1 trial in healthy people, so it won't show if the drug works for any disease. Side effects are possible and unknown yet.
