aKLmRNA-mediated Protein Replacement Therapy (NCT07544420)
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-controlled Phase 1b Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics (Protein Expression) of Multiple Administrations of Alpha Klotho mRNA (aKLmRNA), aKL003
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This is a Phase 1b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety and tolerability of a proprietary aKLmRNA formulated in lipid nanoparticles. Approximately 21 subjects will be enrolled. Each subject will receive a total of two injections during the study. The cohort will consist of approximately 21 subjects, with each receiving 0.5 mg aKLmRNA (AKL003) or placebo. Subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio (active treatment:placebo). The placebo will be saline, matching the active treatment in both appearance and volume.
