Can a new experimental pill be safely given to people?
NCT ID NCT07757152
First seen Aug 11, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-stage trial is testing an experimental tablet called ZL-65 in healthy adults aged 18 to 45. The main goal is to see if the drug is safe and tolerable when given as a single or multiple doses, and to learn how the body absorbs and processes it. The study also looks at whether taking the tablet with food changes how it works. Participants receive either ZL-65 or a placebo, and researchers monitor for any side effects.
