Brief summary

This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, First-in-Human Study study to assess the safety of 83-0060, and how this drug acts in the body in healthy volunteers. 83-0060 may be indicated for use in patients with SARS-CoV-2, but a trial of the drug in healthy volunteers is needed before trials in SARS-CoV-2 patients can proceed. Who is it for? You may be eligible for this study if you are aged 18 to 65 years and are in good general health without a clinically significant medical history. Study details All healthy volunteer participants who choose to enrol in this study will be assigned by chance to receive either a single or multiple doses of 83-0060 or placebo. All participants will have their vital signs checked (heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, etc), and will provide blood and urine samples for testing. It is hoped this research will determine the maximum dose of 83-0060 that can be administered safely without causing severe reactions. Once the dose of 83-0060 has been determined in healthy volunteers, a trial investigating the efficacy of 83-0060 as a treatment for patients with SARS-CoV-2 may proceed.

Interventions

This is a single centre, Phase I, single- and multiple-dose escalation clinical trial to be conducted in healthy volunteers. This study will be subdivided into two parts: Part A Single ascending dose (SAD): will comprise of up to 5 cohorts with one optional cohort (SAD Cohorts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 under fasted conditions and optional SAD Cohort Xb under fed conditions). All cohorts will enrol 8 participants each with 6 participants randomised to receive 83-0060 capsules orally and 2 participants rand

This study will be subdivided into two parts: Part A Single ascending dose (SAD): will comprise of up to 5 cohorts with one optional cohort (SAD Cohorts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 under fasted conditions and optional SAD Cohort Xb under fed conditions). All cohorts will enrol 8 participants each with 6 participants randomised to receive 83-0060 capsules orally and 2 participants randomised to receive placebo capsules orally as a single dose on Day 1 with the following doses: • SAD Cohort 1: 15 mg (under fasted conditions) • SAD Cohort 2: 50 mg (under fasted conditions) • SAD Cohort 3: 150 mg (under fasted conditions) • SAD Cohort 4: 300 mg (under fasted conditions) • SAD Cohort 5: 600 mg (under fasted conditions) • Optional SAD Cohort Xb: TBC (under fed conditions) Part B Multiple ascending dose (MAD): will comprise of 2 cohorts (MAD Cohorts 1 and 2). Cohorts will enrol 8 participants each with 6 participants randomised to receive 83-0060 capsules orally and 2 participants randomised to receive placebo capsules orally once daily with the following doses: • MAD Cohort 1: 150 mg (Day 1 to Day 10) • MAD Cohort 2: 600 mg (Day 1 to Day 10) The decision to commence Part B of the study will be based upon Safety Review Committee (SRC) review of blinded clinical and laboratory safety data through to and including the End of Study (EoS) visit and available blinded PK data up to day 14 post-dose of all Cohorts in Part A. Cohorts will be dosed in an escalating order with participants only able to enrol in one dose cohort. Adherence to the intervention will be done via supervised drug administration.
