New Bone-Boosting shot tested for first time in humans
NCT ID NCT07178327
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Sep 03, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This early-stage study tests a new injectable drug called LYN101 in 44 people. First, healthy volunteers get a single dose to check safety. Then, postmenopausal women with low bone mass get multiple doses to see how the drug affects bone turnover markers. The main goal is safety, not yet proof that it prevents fractures.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- LYN101 (injectable drug)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a new treatment to strengthen bones and reduce fracture risk in osteoporosis.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 44 participants, focused on safety. It is too small and early to know if LYN101 will actually help bones or be safe long-term.

Inclusion Criteria: Inclusion Criteria for Part A: 1. Fully understand the purpose and requirements of the trial, voluntarily participate in the clinical study, and sign a written informed consent form. 2. Individuals aged 18 to 65 years (inclusive), regardless of gender; 3. Weight ≥ 50 kg for males or at least 45 kg for females, with a Body Mass Index (BMI) ranging from 18.0 to 30.0 kg/m² (inclusive). 4. Males and females of childbearing potential agree not to plan for childbearing and to use reliable contraceptive measures from the time of signing the written informed consent until 6 months after dosing. They also agree not to donate sperm or ova. Inclusion Criteria for Part B: 1. Fully understand the purpose and requirements of the trial, voluntarily participate in the clinical trial, and sign a written informed consent form. 2. Individuals aged 50-70 years (inclusive), female, and ambulatory. 3. Spontaneous amenorrhea lasting for at least two years or bilateral oophorectomy performed at least two years prior. For women under 60 years of age who have undergone hysterectomy but retained their ovaries, or when the status of bilateral oophorectomy is unknown, menopausal status must be confirmed by follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels exceeding 40 mIU/mL or in accordance with the postmenopausal range established by the local laboratory. 4. During the screening process, at least two consecutive vertebrae within the L1-L4 region must be evaluable for DXA BMD assessment, and at least one hip must also be evaluable for DXA BMD assessment. 5. Low bone mass, as measured by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) during screening (BMD), shall meet the criteria if any site has a T-score less than -1.0 and greater than -2.5 at the lumbar spine L1-L4, femoral neck, or total hip. Exclusion Criteria: Exclusion Criteria for Part A: 1. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥140 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥90 mm Hg after at least five minutes of rest during screening assessments. 2. Clinically significant abnormalities observed in the 12-lead ECG at screening include, but are not limited to, a Mean QTcF \> 450 ms for males or \> 470 ms for females. The measurement is taken while the subject is supine after resting for at least 10 minutes, with three readings obtained at intervals of at least 1 minute. If the mean QTcF exceeds these limits, the ECG measurement should be repeated three times. If the retest results are still abnormal, the subject is excluded. PR interval \< 120 ms PR interval \> 200 ms 3. Clinically significant abnormalities in laboratory tests, chest X-ray, and/or abdominal ultrasound at Screening unless the Investigator determines they are non-interfering. 4. 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 concentration \< 20 ng/mL at screening and unwilling to supplement vitamin D. 5. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and/or total bilirubin (TBIL) levels exceeding the upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening. 6. International normalized ratio (INR) greater than 1.5 at screening. 7. Corrected serum calcium and phosphorus levels outside the laboratory reference range at Screening (calcium and phosphorus supplements should not be taken for at least 8 hours before measuring serum calcium and phosphorus). 8. Estimated creatinine clearance \<60 mL/min (using the Cockcroft-Gault formula) at screening. 9. Any disease that might impact the safety evaluation of the subject or the in vivo process of the investigational product, including the central nervous system, cardiovascular system, digestive system, respiratory system, urinary system, hematopoietic system, metabolic endocrine system, and others. 10. Participation in any other drug or device clinical trials within 30 days or five half-lives (whichever is longer) before screening. 11. Use of prescription drugs within 14 days or five half-lives (whichever is longer) before administering the investigational product, unless the Investigator and Sponsor determine they are non-interfering (e.g., hormonal contraceptives). 12. Use of over-the-counter (OTC) drugs within 7 days or five half-lives (whichever is longer) before administering the investigational product, unless the Investigator and Sponsor determine they are non-interfering. 13. Test results show positive for the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody, Treponema pallidum antibody, or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody. 14. Use of more than 10 sticks per day of tobacco or nicotine products within the past 30 days before screening. 15. History of alcohol, drug, or substance abuse within the 12 months before screening. 16. Known allergy to human immunoglobulins, the investigational product or its components, calcium preparations, or vitamin D preparations. 17.
