GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) has launched a Phase 1 clinical study titled ‘A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of GSK3996401 Following Single and Multiple Ascending Doses of GSK4347859 in Healthy Participants.’ The study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of GSK4347859, a new drug intended for the treatment of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, marking its first administration in humans.

The intervention involves the drug GSK4347859, which is being tested in both single and multiple ascending doses to evaluate its safety profile and effectiveness. The study also includes a placebo for comparison.

This study is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with a sequential intervention model. It involves masking both participants and investigators to ensure unbiased results, with the primary purpose of evaluating treatment effects.

The study began on December 19, 2023, and was last updated on September 30, 2025. It is currently suspended, which may affect the timeline for primary and estimated completion dates.

The suspension of this study could impact GSK’s stock performance and investor sentiment, as delays in clinical trials often lead to market uncertainty. Competitors in the pharmaceutical industry may gain a temporary advantage if GSK’s progress is hindered.

The study is ongoing, and further details can be accessed on the ClinicalTrials portal.
