Could a new injection tame ulcerative colitis?
NCT ID NCT07758101
First seen Aug 11, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-stage trial is testing an experimental drug called SHR-7590 to see if it is safe and tolerable when given by injection under the skin or into a vein. It involves healthy volunteers and people with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis, a condition that causes inflammation and sores in the colon. The study will also look at how the drug moves through the body and how it affects the disease. The goal is to gather initial information that could support further development of SHR-7590 as a potential treatment.
