Equillium Announces First Subject Dosed in Phase 1 Clinical Trial of EQ504
Equillium announced that the first subject has been dosed in its Phase 1 trial of EQ504 in Australia. The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics; topline proof-of-mechanism data are anticipated in Q2 2027.
Why it matters — The first dosing marks the trial’s start and triggers the closing of an additional $20 million in funding, which the company expects to support currently planned operations into 2029.
