Clinical trial Recruiting at 1 site Phase 1 Interventional Ages 18 to 55

A safe, carefully dosed test of TBD11 in healthy adults

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multiple Dose Trial in Healthy Adult Participants to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of TBD11 With Up to 84-day Period of Fixed Daily Dosing, With an Evaluation of Drug-Drug Interactions

Run by Gates Medical Research Institute · NCT07883226 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This phase 1 study tests TBD11 in healthy adults to see if it is safe and tolerable and to understand how it behaves in the body, including how it interacts with other medicines.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Healthy adults aged 18 to 55 who meet screening health criteria and can comply with inpatient procedures.

Probably not a fit

Participants who do not tolerate TBD11 or exhibit safety concerns during screening or dosing may not derive direct benefit.

What this trial studies

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 1 trial in healthy adult volunteers to evaluate safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of TBD11 when given in multiple doses. An open-label cohort will examine drug-drug interactions by giving TBD11 with a strong CYP3A inhibitor or inducer. The study includes three cohorts: an initial double-blind 14-day dosing period, a parallel open-label drug interaction cohort, and a longer 84-day double-blind dosing period. Interventions include TBD11 at 300 mg, placebo, and, in specific periods, itraconazole and rifampicin to assess interactions. The lead sponsor is Gates Medical Research Institute, with collaboration from IQVIA RDS Inc. and FARMOVS (Pty) Ltd in Bloemfontein.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, TBD11 could advance understanding of its safety profile and how it behaves with other medicines in healthy individuals, guiding future research.

How similar studies have gone: Other early-phase drug interaction studies have used similar designs to characterize safety and pharmacokinetics with and without CYP3A modulators.
