About this study

Official title: A Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic, and Pharmacodynamic Study of Single- and Multiple-Ascending Doses of LY3522348 in Healthy Participants

The main purpose of this study in healthy participants is to learn more about the safety of LY3522348 and any side effects that might be associated with it. Blood tests will be performed to check how much LY3522348 gets into the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to eliminate it. This study has two parts: Part A will last up to about six weeks and Part B will last up to about eight weeks for each participant.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With One or More Serious Adverse Event(s) (SAEs) Considered by the Investigator to be Related to Study Drug Administration

    An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence temporally associated with the use of study intervention that results in death is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect or any other situation as determined by investigator. The number of participants with one or more SAEs considered by the investigator to be related to study drug administration is reported here. A summary of SAEs and other non-serious adverse events, regardless of causality, will be reported in the Reported Adverse Events module.

    Measured: Part A: Baseline up to Day 14; Part B: Baseline up to Day 28

    Measured: Day 1 (Predose, 0.75, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 hours post Day 1 dose); Day 14 (Predose, 0.75, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48, 72, 96, 144 hours post Day 14 dose)

  3. Part A PK: Maximum Observed Drug Concentration (Cmax) of LY3522348

    PK: Cmax of LY3522348

    Measured: Day 1 (Predose, 0.75, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 48, 72, 96, 144 hours post Day 1 dose)

  4. Part B PK: Maximum Observed Drug Concentration (Cmax) of LY3522348

    PK: Cmax of LY3522348

    Measured: Day 1 (Predose, 0.75, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 hours post Day 1 dose); Day 14 (Predose, 0.75, 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48, 72, 96, 144 hours post Day 14 dose)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LY3522348 and Midazolam in people with Healthy, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Nov 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Nov 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With One or More Serious Adverse Event(s) (SAEs) Considered by the Investigator to be Related to Study Drug Administration (time frame: Part A: Baseline up to Day 14; Part B: Baseline up to Day 28). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04559568, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Nov 2025.
