About this study

Official title: A Single-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Multiple-Dose, Dose-Escalation Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of Huperzine A Oral Solution in Healthy Participants

In this study, 4 dose groups are planned: Group 1 (0.22 mg, QD), Group 2 (0.22 mg, BID), Group 3 (0.44 mg, QD), and Group 4 (0.44 mg, BID). Ten healthy study participants will be enrolled in each dose group, and randomized to the investigational drug group or the placebo group in a 4:1 ratio (i.e., 8 study participants in the investigational drug group and 2 study participants in the placebo group). An appropriate gender ratio will be ensured within each dose group.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Huperzine A Oral SolutionDrug

    Investigational huperzine A oral solution, administered orally in 4 sequential escalating multiple-dose cohorts to healthy adult participants.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Matching placebo, identical in appearance, taste and packaging to huperzine A oral solution, administered orally for multiple doses.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Huperzine A Oral SolutionExperimentalHealthy participants receive multiple escalating oral doses of huperzine A oral solution in sequential cohorts. Advancement to subsequent dose cohorts is gated by review from the Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC) and Sponsor. Subjects within each cohort are randomized to study drug or placebo.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Huperzine A Oral Solution in people with Healhty, run by Wanbangde Pharmaceutical Group Co., LTD 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 4 inclusion and 25 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 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 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?

Contact Juan Li (+8613735826039, lijuan@wepon.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety and Tolerability Assessments (time frame: From first study drug administration through Day 9). 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 25 Aug 2026.
