Brief summary
The first stage of this study is a prospective, adaptive, Phase 1, first-in-human, randomized, controlled study evaluating safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics of NOV-001 in adult healthy volunteers. The second stage of this study is a prospective, randomized, single-blinded, placebo-controlled study of safety, tolerability, and early efficacy in patients with enteric hyperoxaluria.
Detailed description
This study is evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics, and early efficacy of NOV-001. NOV-001 is an investigational combination product composed of NB1000S, a recombinant live biotherapeutic product, and NB2000P, a botanically derived polysaccharide. In Stage 1, NB1000S (or placebo) is administered on the first day of treatment and NB2000P is administered once daily, or as indicated in the adaptive study design. In Stage 2, NB1000S (or placebo) is administered two times per day on the first day of the treatment and NB2000P (or placebo) is administered once daily for 28 days, at doses determined in Stage 1.

Inclusion criteria
Stage 1 Key Inclusion Criteria: * Ages 18 to 55 * Body mass index (BMI) \< 38 kg/m2. * Healthy as defined by no clinically relevant abnormalities being identified by a detailed medical history, physical examination, and clinical laboratory tests. * If woman of child-bearing potential, must not be pregnant, and must also agree to use an appropriate highly-effective contraceptive. * Willing and able to comply with all study requirements, including duration of stay at inpatient unit, dietary restrictions, daily study product administration, pregnancy testing and contraception (if applicable), stool collections, and blood and urine collections. Stage 1 Key
Exclusion criteria
* Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 80 mL/min/1.73 m2 at Screening. * Oral or parenteral antibiotics within 4 weeks prior to Screening, or anticipation of the need for such antibiotics during the Screening or treatment periods of the study. * Current or history of any clinically significant medical illness or disorder the Investigator considers should exclude the subject from the study. * Participation in any investigational intervention study within 30 days prior to study product administration in this study. * Known hypersensitivity to omeprazole. * Applicable only to certain study groups depending on emerging Stage 1 data: no current or anticipated use during the screening or treatment periods of the study of medications that have the potential for drug-drug interactions (DDI) with omeprazole. Stage 2 Key Inclusion Criteria: * Ages 18 to 65. * Hyperoxaluria secondary to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery or to biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) surgery. * 24-Hour urinary oxalate (UOx) ≥ 60 mg. * If woman of child-bearing potential, must not be pregnant and must also agree to use an appropriate highly effective contraceptive method. * Must, in the opinion of the Investigator, be in otherwise good health. * Willing and able to comply with all study requirements, including dietary restrictions, daily study product administration, pregnancy testing and contraception (if applicable), stool collections, and blood and 24-hour urine collections. Stage 2 Key
