About this study

Official title: A Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind, Phase I Clinical Study to Evaluate Pharmacokinetic Characteristics, Safety and Tolerability of Single Sequential and Multiple Continuous Intravenous Infusions of Ulinastatin for Injection in Healthy Chinese Participants

This is a Phase 1 clinical study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of ulinastatin for injection after single sequential and multiple continuous intravenous infusions in healthy Chinese volunteers.

Key study questions:

  • - How does ulinastatin behave in the body after single sequential and multiple continuous intravenous infusions?
  • - What are the safety outcomes and side effects in healthy people receiving this investigational drug?
  • Study participants will:
  • - Complete screening assessments to check if they meet the study requirements.
  • - Receive either ulinastatin for injection or placebo (inactive substance with no study drug) via intravenous drip.
  • - Follow the study schedule for single sequential infusions and multiple continuous infusions.
  • - Provide blood samples to measure drug concentration in the body.
  • - Undergo safety evaluations including physical examinations, vital sign monitoring and laboratory tests throughout the study period.
  • The study will compare data from participants receiving the study drug versus those receiving placebo to assess drug-related exposure and adverse reactions.
Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 1 study of ulinastatin for injection in healthy Chinese adults. Approximately 40 participants will be enrolled sequentially into 4 cohorts and randomized 8:2 to ulinastatin or placebo, to evaluate single ascending doses of 100,000 to 8,000,000 units and multiple ascending doses of 400,000 or 1,600,000 units administered three times daily for 4 consecutive days. Serial blood samples will be collected for non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis, and safety and tolerability will be assessed throughout the study.

Model description
Participants are enrolled sequentially into 4 cohorts. Cohorts 1 and 2 are single-ascending-dose cohorts, in which each participant receives 3 sequential single doses on Days 1, 4, and 7. Cohorts 3 and 4 are multiple-ascending-dose cohorts, in which each participant receives three infusions daily for 4 consecutive days. Cohorts are enrolled in ascending dose order, with an interval of at least 2 weeks between cohorts; initiation of the next cohort is based on review of available safety data from the preceding cohort(s). Within each cohort, participants are randomized in an 8:2 ratio to ulinastatin or placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ulinastatin in people with Healthy Participants and Ulinastatin, run by Techpool Bio-Pharma 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 5 inclusion and 20 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 6 Nov 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 Mingjuan Hua (+86-20-38972288, huamj@techpool.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Peak plasma concentration(Cmax) (time frame: Up to 24 hours after the start of each infusion on Days 1, 4, and 7). The study lists 12 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 6 Nov 2026.
