Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of single and multiple intravenous doses of BWC0977 when administered to healthy adult volunteers.
Detailed description
This Phase 1 study is designed to assess the safety, tolerabilty and pharmcokinetics of single and multiple intravenous doses of BWC0977 when administered to healthy adult volunteers. This is a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending dose, multi-cohort trial. A total of 64 healthy volunteers are expected to be enrolled into 8 Cohorts. The study will be conducted in two phases: A single ascending dose (SAD) phase, followed by a multiple ascending dose (MAD) phase. In SAD, participants in Cohorts 1 - 5 will receive one dose of BWC0977 or placebo. In MAD, participants in Cohorts 6 - 8 will receive multiple doses of BWC0977 or placebo for 10 consecutive days at a dose deemed safe and tolerable as determined in the preceding SAD Cohorts. In both parts sequential cohorts will be exposed to increasing doses of BWC0977.
Interventions
DRUGBWC0977
SAD Cohorts: Double-blind dosing will occur. Six participants will receive single doses of BWC0977. The dose escalation steps may be altered following review of the safety data upon completion of each cohort. MAD Cohorts: Double blind dosing will occur. Six participants in each cohort will receive multiple doses of BWC0977. The dose escalation steps may be altered following review of the safety data upon completion of each cohort. Dosing will commence on the morning of Day 1. Dosing frequency to be confirmed based on safety, tolerability and PK data from SAD cohorts. Daily dosing will continue for a total of 10 consecutive days.
DRUGPlacebo
SAD Cohorts: Two participants in each cohort will receive matching placebo. MAD Cohorts: Two participants in each cohort will receive matching placebo.

No findings in Physical examination or vital signs (including temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure) that the Principal Investigator (PI) determines would interfere with interpretation of study results. 2. Electrocardiograms (ECGs) without clinically significant abnormalities, including a QT duration corrected for heart rate by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) interval duration ≤450 msec (for males), and ≤470 msec (for females) obtained as an average from the triplicate screening ECGs after at least 5 minutes in a supine quiet-rest position. 3.
