Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (age ≥18) with confirmed diffuse toxic goiter, abnormal thyroid tests, no recent antithyroid or thyroid hormone use, and who meet contraception and follow-up requirements are ideal candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with non-diffuse causes of hyperthyroidism, prior radioactive iodine or thyroid surgery, active thyroid eye disease, recent thyroid hormone/antithyroid use, or who are pregnant are unlikely to benefit from this phase 1 trial.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This is a phase 1, single-ascending-dose study enrolling adults with confirmed diffuse toxic goiter (Graves' disease) to receive subcutaneous GenSci098. Participants will be screened for abnormal thyroid function and must have discontinued recent antithyroid or thyroid hormone treatments per protocol. Small cohorts will receive escalating single doses with close safety monitoring, laboratory testing, and follow-up visits to evaluate tolerability and adverse events. Key exclusions include prior radioactive iodine or thyroid surgery and active thyroid eye disease.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, GenSci098 could become a new treatment option that safely reduces thyroid overactivity in patients with Graves' disease.
How similar studies have gone: Single-ascending-dose safety trials are a standard first step, but there is limited clinical evidence so far for subcutaneous biologics directly treating Graves' hyperthyroidism.
