Brief summary

Beren Therapeutics is evaluating the therapeutic potential of BRN-002 when administered intravenously. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BRN-002 administered intravenously every 14 days, as well as to gain an understanding of the repeat dose pharmacokinetics (PK) profile and pharmacodynamics (PD) of BRN-002. The total study duration will be of up to 13 weeks including the screening, intervention and follow-up period. The intervention duration will be of 7 weeks (4 dose total). Participants will be confined to the clinic starting the evening prior to each dose through 2 days after each dose. Participants will fast for 8 hours prior to each dose. They will be discharged from the clinic once all scheduled PK and safety assessments have been collected. Participants will also undergo audiometry testing prior to discharge.

Interventions

The study consists of three active treatment arms and one placebo arm. Participants will receive BRN-002 or Placebo once every 14 days over 7 weeks for a total of 4 doses intravenously. Arm 1- BRN-002 500 mg/kg IV Arm 2- BRN-002 1000 mg/kg IV Arm 3- BRN-002 1500 mg/kg IV Arm 4- Placebo 0 mg/kg IV Study drugs will be administered under the supervision of study personnel and treatment compliance will be verified according to the site's SOP (Standard Operating Procedures).
