New antibody WIN378 aims to tame COPD lung inflammation
NCT ID NCT07646587
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 16, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This phase 2 trial is testing a new medicine called WIN378 for people with moderate to severe COPD. WIN378 is a long-acting antibody that blocks a protein involved in lung inflammation. The study will test different doses in 105 adults who are former smokers and already on standard triple therapy, to see if it is safe and helps control COPD.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- WIN378 (a long-acting antibody that blocks a protein called TSLP to reduce lung inflammation)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a new, longer-lasting treatment option for people with moderate to severe COPD, helping to control symptoms and reduce flare-ups.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early phase 2 trial with only 105 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may not work better than placebo, and side effects are still being studied.
