About this study

Official title: An Exploratory Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of ZE63-0302 in Participants With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

A Phase 1b study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of multiple doses of ZE63-0302 administrated orally in T2DM patients.

Read the detailed description

This is an exploratory randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of 4-week treatment with ZE63-0302 versus placebo in participants with T2DM managed with up to 3 antidiabetic agents (except for insulin). Evaluation of dose levels will be conducted in a sequential fashion with lower dose levels evaluated first in the sequence. In this study patients will be enrolled to receive BID of ZE63-0302 or Placebo under fasted condition.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ZE63-0302 in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Eilean Therapeutics at 10 sites in 3 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 17 inclusion and 44 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 11 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in New Zealand, Australia, Uzbekistan. 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?

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?

Incidence of AE/SAE. (time frame: From dosing to Week 4.). The study lists 4 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 11 May 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
