About this study

Official title: A Phase I Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Food Effect of Single and Multiple Ascending Doses of QLS1410 in Healthy Chinese Adults and Participants With Mild Essential Hypertension

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and food effect of single and multiple ascending doses of QLS1410 in healthy Chinese adults and participants with mild essential hypertension

Read the detailed description

This study consists of three parts, as follows:

Part A is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind single ascending dose (SAD) study in healthy Chinese adults, consisting of 5 cohorts. Starting dose of 0.5 mg by oral administration are planned. Once sufficient safety and PK data are obtained from the SAD cohorts, the SMC will determine the dosage of initial cohort in Part B and Part C.

Part B is a randomized, open-label, two-cycle, crossover food effect (FE) study under fasting and fed (high-fat meal) conditions.

Part C is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind multiple ascending doses (MAD) study in participants with mild essential hypertension, consisting of 3 cohorts.

Being tested

QLS1410ExperimentalPart A: Healthy adults will be randomized (6:2) to receive a single dose (1.5 mg ~ 20 mg) of QLS1410 or placebo,especially, the starting dose will be 0.5 mg of QLs1410 Part B: QLS1410 will be administered under the fasted or fed conditions in two different periods separated by a wash-out interval of 14 days. The dose of QLS1410 or placebo is based on upcoming data from SAD part. Part C: Hypertensive participants will be randomized (8:2) to receive QLS1410 or placebo QD for 14 continuous days. The starting dose of QLS1410 or placebo is based on upcoming data from SAD part.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing QLS1410 (CYP11B2 inhibitor) in people with Uncontrolled Hypertension, run by Qilu Pharmaceutical 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 15 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 3 Sep 2025. 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 Haiyan Li, B.M (18600489179, haiyanli1027@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence and severity of treatment emergent Adverse Events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 (time frame: up to approximately 1 month). 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 3 Sep 2025.
