New pill aims to tame rare kidney disorder that makes patients drink constantly
NCT ID NCT07525960
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This early-stage trial tests a daily capsule called NDI-5001 in 24 adult men with a rare inherited kidney condition (X-linked congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus) that causes extreme thirst and frequent urination. The study's main goal is to check the drug's safety and how it affects urine output and concentration. If it works, it could offer a new way to manage this lifelong condition.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- NDI-5001 (capsule)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a daily pill to reduce excessive urination and improve water balance in people with X-linked NDI.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early Phase 1b trial with only 24 participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet proven. The drug may not work or could have side effects.
