RECRUITINGPhase 1INTERVENTIONAL

Study of KK3910 in Healthy Volunteers and Patients With Essential Hypertension

A Phase 1, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind, Randomized, Single and Multiple Ascending-Dose Study of KK3910 in Healthy Volunteers and Patients With Essential Hypertension

Study of KK3910 in Healthy Volunteers and Patients With Essential Hypertension (NCT06823947) is a Phase 1 interventional studying Healthy Volunteers Essential Hypertension, sponsored by Kyowa Kirin Co., Ltd.. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

Part 1 : To evaluate the safety of single-dose KK3910 in healthy volunteers. Part 2 : To evaluate the safety of multiple-dose KK3910 in patients with essential hypertension. Part 3 : To assess the safety profile of repeated dosing of KK3910 in an additional hypertension cohort.

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 Volunteers Essential Hypertension, 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.

Target enrollment of 160 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused Healthy Volunteers Essential Hypertension subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.

Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety. Risk varies by trial — Phase 1 studies test new treatments in humans for the first time, while Phase 3 trials use treatments that have already passed earlier safety screening. The informed consent document for any specific trial details the known risks and what to expect. Discuss those risks with your physician before deciding whether to participate.
