Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
This study consists of two parts. The SAD and MAD of part I are a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single and multiple ascending dose study in healthy adult subjects. The MAD expansion cohort of part I is single arm and multipal ascending dose in heallthy subjects. Part II (phase Ib/IIa) is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open label, multiple ascending dose study in patients with coronary atherosclerosis.
Detailed description
Part I (phase Ia) is consists of 2 sections. The sections 1 is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single and multiple ascending doses of intravenously administered YN001, and to evaluate the effect of SAD of intravenously administered YN001 on the QT/QTc interval, and the immunogenicity of MAD of intravenously administered YN001 in healthy subjects. Besides, the section 2 is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple intravenous administration of YN001 without pre-medication or with different pre-medication regimens in Chinese healthy subjects. Part II (phase Ib/IIa) is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, preliminary efficacy, immunogenicity, and the effect on cytokine changes of MAD of intravenously administered YN001 in patients with coronary atherosclerosis.
Interventions
In single ascending dose (SAD) part of study in health subjects, YN001 will be administrated one time with dosage from 10 mg to 120 mg (planned). In multiple ascending doses (MAD) part of study in health subjects, YN001 will be given twice a week from 5 mg to 40 mg up to 15 days. In MAD part of study in patients with coronary atherosclerosis, YN001 will be injected weekly or twice a week from 5mg to 40mg up to 85 days.
The injection solution to mimic the YN001
In MAD part of study in patients with coronary atherosclerosis, Rosuvastatin calcium tablets will be taken orally by 10 mg daily up to 85 days
