Brief summary
This is a first in human, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, single dose, escalating dose and Multiple-Dose study of the safety and pharmacokinetics of RA101495 in healthy volunteers to evaluate safety of RA101495. There will be up to 5 single dose cohorts with doses of 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.40 and 0.80 mg/kg. There will be up to 2 multiple dose cohorts with doses of 0.20 and 0.40 mg/kg. Study drug will be administered on Day1 for single dose cohorts and on Day1-7 for multiple dose cohorts as a single SC injection and the amount of drug given will depend on the dose of the cohort and the weight of the subject. Each cohort will be dosed a minimum of 7 days for single days cohorts and 14 days for multiple dose cohorts after the first subject in the previous cohort received the last dose. If 2 or more subjects administered RA101495 in a dose cohort experience a dose-limiting toxicity, dose administration in that cohort will stop and escalation to the next dose level will not proceed.
Interventions
Up to 5 cohorts of healthy volunteers will be defined by escalating dose of RA101495. Cohort 1: 0.05 mg/kg single subcutaneous injection of RA101495 or placebo Cohort 2: 0.10 mg/kg single subcutaneous injection of RA101495 or placebo Cohort 3: 0.20 mg/kg single subcutaneous injection of RA101495 or placebo Cohort 4: 0.40 mg/kg single subcutaneous injection of RA101495 or placebo Cohort 5: 0.80 mg/kg single subcutaneous injection of RA101495 or placebo Each subject will receive only one dose of study drug as a subcutaneous injection on Day 1 while in the clinic. Subsequently, Up to 2 cohorts of healthy volunteers will be administered: Cohort 6: 0.20 mg/kg once daily for 7 days subcutaneous injection of RA101495 or placebo Cohort 7: 0.40 mg/kg once daily for 7 days subcutaneous injection of RA101495 or placebo
