A Study of LY4057996 in Healthy Participants and Participants With Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes

A Phase 1 interventional study of LY4057996 SC and LY4057996 IV in Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company. Recruiting at 1 site in Germany. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-09-29.

Study summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well LY4057996 is tolerated and what side effects may occur in healthy participants and participants with Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes. The study drug will be administered either subcutaneously (SC) (under the skin) or intravenously (IV) (into a vein in the arm). Blood tests will be performed to check how much LY4057996 gets into the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to eliminate it.

The study will last 11 weeks for Part A1-A2, 4 weeks for A3-A5, 6 weeks for Part B and 7 weeks for Part C, all approximations, excluding a screening period.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have had more than 1 emergency room visit or hospitalization due to poor glucose control (hyperglycemia or diabetic ketoacidosis) within 6 months prior to screening
  • Have had any episodes of severe hypoglycemia (defined as requiring assistance due to neurologically disabling hypoglycemia), hypoglycemia unawareness, or both within the 6 months prior to screening

All Parts
