NCT ID NCT05721989
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested how different versions of the experimental drug ziltivekimab move through the body when given as a single injection under the skin. It compared two different formulas and two injection methods: a manual syringe and a pen-injector. The study involved 267 healthy adults aged 18-64 and aimed to see how quickly the drug is absorbed and how safe it is.
