What is being measured

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

  1. Number and proportion of participants with a treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE)

    Measured: From baseline to Day 7 (±1) for SAD, baseline to Day16 (±2) for FE, baseline to Day 14 (± 2) for MAD

  2. 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) (QT Interval)

    Measured: From baseline to Day 7 (±1) for SAD, baseline to Day16 (±2) for FE, baseline to Day 14 (± 2) for MAD

  6. Number of participants with abnormal laboratory tests results

    Measured: From baseline to Day 7 (±1) for SAD, baseline to Day16 (±2) for FE, baseline to Day 14 (± 2) for MAD

  7. Number of participants with abnormal ophthalmoscopic-examination findings

    Measured: From baseline to Day 7 (±1) for SAD, baseline to Day16 (±2) for FE, baseline to Day 14 (± 2) for MAD

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LWP779 in people with Ischemic Stroke, run by Longwood Pharmaceuticals (Hangzhou) Co., Ltd. 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 9 inclusion and 33 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Mar 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Tingting Yan (+86 15989276332, tingting.yan1@longwoodtech.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number and proportion of participants with a treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) (time frame: From baseline to Day 7 (±1) for SAD, baseline to Day16 (±2) for FE, baseline to Day 14 (± 2) for MAD). The study lists 7 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 20 Mar 2026.
