NCT ID NCT07247942
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed Phase 1 study looked at how healthy men process and eliminate the antibiotic zidebactam. Eight participants received a single dose with a radioactive tracer to track the drug in urine and feces. The goal was to understand how the drug is broken down and how quickly it leaves the body, which helps guide future dosing studies.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- zidebactam (an antibiotic)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study will clarify how zidebactam is broken down and removed from the body, helping to design better dosing for future patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small study in just 8 healthy men. It does not test whether the drug works against infections, and results may not apply to women or sick people.
