About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Randomized, Double-Blind, Single-Center, Placebo-Controlled Single Ascending Dose and Multiple Ascending Dose (SAD/MAD) Study by Topical Dermal Administration to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of ENC0653 Ointment in Healthy Adult Subjects

This is a FIH, randomized, double-blind, single-center, placebo-controlled, dose -escalation clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ENC0653 ointment following single and multiple topical dermal administration in healthy adult subjects.

Up to 56 subjects will be enrolled at a single site in up to 4 cohorts in Part A (SAD study), and up to 3 cohorts in Part B (MAD study). Part A is for the single dose use of IP, while Part B is twice-daily use for 7 consecutive days and once daily use on Day 8. Each cohort will include 8 subjects (6 receiving ENC0653 ointment and 2 receiving placebo ointment).

Dosing will be escalated on a review of safety, tolerability, and available PK data by a Safety Review Committee (SRC).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Low Dose, 10%BSA, Low Dose, 20%BSA and Middle Dose, 20%BSA in people with Healthy, run by EnnovaBio at 1 site in China.

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 11 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 6 Jul 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 China. 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?

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number and types of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) following ENC0653 ointment administration (time frame: D-28 to Day 4 (± 1) for SAD and D-28 to Day 11 (± 1) for MAD). 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 6 Jul 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
