About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled, First-in-Human Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Single-Ascending and Multiple-Ascending Doses of Oral CDI-988 in Healthy Adult Participants

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK, the amount of drug in the blood) of a new drug called CDI-988 in healthy volunteers.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Are there any side effects of the drug?
  • What is the amount of drug that reaches the bloodstream? Participants will be assigned by chance to take either CDI-988 or placebo by mouth and have physical exams, electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital signs, and blood tests to look for any side effects.
Read the detailed description

CDI-988 is a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) 3-chymotrypsin-like (3CL) protease inhibitor for oral administration. This study is being conducted in 2 parts to examine the safety, tolerability, and PK of CDI-988 in healthy participants. Part 1 will entail escalating single doses in sequential cohorts and Part 2 will enroll escalating multiple-dose cohorts. Participants will be monitored for adverse events, vital signs, laboratory values, and electrocardiograms (ECGs).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CDI-988 in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Cocrystal Pharma, Inc. at 1 site in Australia.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 19 Aug 2026. 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 Australia. 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. 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 19 Aug 2026). 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?

Adverse Events (time frame: Up to 17 days). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 19 Aug 2026.
