Phase 1RecruitingNCT07564154

Kali Therapeutics, Inc.27 enrolled

Overview

This is a Phase 1, open-label, first-in-human study to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of KT502 administered subcutaneously to participants with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). The study will have 2 parts: Part A is a single ascending dose finding (SAD) and Part B is dose escalation by fractionated dosing.
