Pharmacodynamic parameters-Pupillometry
The pupillometry measurements will be completed in a room where ambient noise and lighting will be controlled and uniform. After resting for 5 minutes, and before and after receiving the study drug, the pupillometry measurements (repeated once) will be taken from each eye using a pupilometer with an opaque rubber cup covering one eye. Each pupillometry session measuring both eyes will be approximately 1 minute.
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Pharmacodynamic parameters - EEG
Absolute and relative power spectral densities (PSDs) calculated for each 1 second epoch (1-59 Hz bins). Also grouped into the standard EEG bandwidths: delta, theta, alpha, beta and gamma. Additionally, the PSD variables will be averaged across brain regions of interest, including frontal, central, parietal, temporal and occipital
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Pharmacodynamic parameters - Food VAS
The following questions will be asked:
- How hungry do you feel (from 'not hungry at all' to 'very hungry')?
- How full do you feel (from 'not full at all' to 'very full')?
- How satisfied do you feel (from 'completely empty' to 'I cannot eat more')?
- How much do you think you can eat now (from 'nothing at all' to 'a lot')?
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Pharmacodynamic parameters- Daily Food Diary
"You are required to keep an up-to-date food diary for the next few days, recording everything you consume (all nutrition that passes your lips)"
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Pharmacodynamic parameters - Test Meal
The test meal model is an accepted experimental method for assessing the effects of an intervention on food intake in a laboratory setting.
In its simplest form, it involves offering participants an excess amount of pre-weighed food (a pasta-based meal), instructing participants to eat the test meal until they feel comfortably full, and then weighing the amount of food remaining once the participant has finished eating.13 The weight of food consumed can then be determined (±0.1 g) and from the nutritional information on the food packaging, energy intake (kJ) can be calculated.
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Pharmacodynamic parameters - Appetite and Palatability Questionnaire
This questionnaire consists of thirteen VAS questions and one multiple choice question which in sum examine the palatability of the test meal, the participants' motivation to eat, the general wellbeing and physiological sensations of the participants, and the reason why they stopped eating. The VAS questions are self-rated by the participant by putting a perpendicular marking on each of the thirteen 100 mm lines
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Early Phase 1 study testing KP405 in people with Safety Issues and Tolerance, run by Kariya Pharmaceuticals at 1 site in United Kingdom.
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 2 inclusion and 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 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 United Kingdom. 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?
Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Adverse event (AE) reporting (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 16 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 5 Aug 2026.
