About this study
Official title: REVEAL-1 - A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-masked, Placebo-controlled, Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability Study of VRDN-003 in Participants With Active Thyroid Eye Disease (TED)
This is a clinical trial assessing the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of an investigational drug, VRDN-003, in participants with active Thyroid Eye Disease (TED).
Read the detailed description
This is a randomized (meaning participants will be assigned to study arms by chance), double-masked (meaning study doctor and participant will not know which study arm participant is assigned to), placebo-controlled study that will include participants with active TED. The key objectives of this study are to determine if VRDN-003 is efficacious, safe and tolerable when administered as a series of subcutaneous/SC injections given every 4 weeks or every 8 weeks compared to placebo in participants with active TED.
Participants who do not have a meaningful response at Week 24 (irrespective of the initial treatment arm) may be eligible to receive additional subcutaneous injections of VRDN-003.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
VRDN-003Drug
VRDN-003 is an investigational, subcutaneously administered, humanized monoclonal antibody directed against the Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R).
PlaceboDrug
All participants will receive the same number of injections to maintain masking. Masking will be maintained by the use of placebo injections that appear identical to VRDN-003 injections.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| VRDN-003 every 4 weeks | Experimental | 6 subcutaneous administrations of VRDN-003 Receives: Drug: VRDN-003 |
| VRDN-003 every 8 weeks | Experimental | 3 subcutaneous administrations of VRDN-003 and 3 subcutaneous administrations of placebo Receives: Drug: VRDN-003; Drug: Placebo |
| Placebo every 4 weeks | Placebo comparator | 6 subcutaneous administrations of placebo Receives: Drug: Placebo |

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing VRDN-003 in people with Thyroid Eye Disease, run by Viridian Therapeutics, Inc. at 48 sites in 5 countries.
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 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 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 48 sites in United States, Spain, Germany, Hungary, Netherlands. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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?
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?
Proptosis Responder Rate in the most proptotic eye as measured by exophtalmometer (time frame: At Week 24). 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 18 Aug 2026.
