Breastfeeding moms needed for drug safety study
NCT ID NCT07612267
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Sep 09, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study will measure how much of the drug mirikizumab passes into breast milk in 14 breastfeeding women who take it for inflammatory bowel disease. Participants will provide milk samples over several weeks. The goal is to understand potential exposure to nursing infants, helping guide safer use during breastfeeding.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- mirikizumab
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study will help doctors understand whether mirikizumab is safe for breastfeeding infants, guiding treatment decisions for nursing mothers.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study with only 14 participants, so results may not apply to all women. It measures drug levels in milk, not infant health outcomes directly.
