Safety, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics, and Immunogenicity of Ascending Doses BCD-261 in Healthy Subjects

An Open-Label, Non-Comparative Study of the Safety, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics, and Immunogenicity of Ascending Doses of BCD-261 After Single Subcutaneous Injection in Healthy Subjects

Safety, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics, and Immunogenicity of Ascending Doses BCD-261 in Healthy Subjects (NCT06715540) is a Phase 1 interventional studying Healthy, sponsored by Biocad. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of BCD-261 after single subcutaneous injection at ascending doses and proposed therapeutic doses to healthy male subjects aged from 18 to 45 years old. The study consists of the first stage (dose escalation) and the second stage (dose expansion).

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 1 trials test a new treatment for the first time in humans, focusing on safety, dosing, and how the body processes the drug. For Healthy, a Phase 1 study typically enrolls a small number of participants — often healthy volunteers or patients who have exhausted standard treatment options. Phase 1 results determine whether a treatment moves into larger Phase 2 efficacy studies.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

With a target enrollment of 48 participants, this is a small study — typical of early-phase research, rare-disease trials, or pilot studies designed to generate preliminary signal before a larger study is launched.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: 1. Signed willing to sign a consent form to participate in the study. 2. For cohorts 1-8: Male subjects aged 18 to 45 years at the time of signing the ICF.
