NCT ID NCT06783881
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-stage study tests a new drug called Kylo-12 in 50 healthy volunteers to see if it is safe and how the body processes it. The drug aims to lower high triglycerides, a type of fat in the blood linked to heart problems. Participants receive either a single shot of Kylo-12 or a placebo, and researchers monitor for side effects and measure drug levels in the blood.
