Brief summary
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of FG-3019, a therapeutic antibody designed to block the pro-fibrotic activity of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). CTGF triggers the production of collagen and fibronectin, which cause scarring and thickening of the lungs. Participants will be assigned sequentially to one of the 3 dose group: Low, medium, and high FG-3019.
Interventions
FG-3019 will be administered per dose and schedule specified in the arm description.
