Brief summary
This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single HST101 SC dose cohort study to evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics in Healthy Chinese Participants with Elevated LDL-C Levels.
Detailed description
The planned 30 study participants will be assigned to low- or high-dose 2 cohorts and 15 participants in each cohort will be randomized to either the HST101 group or the matching dose placebo group and will be administered in subsequent or in-parallel manner. Cohort 1: 15 study participants will receive the low dose of HST101 or placebo at a corresponding dose. Cohort 2: additional 15 study participants will receive the high dose of HST101 or placebo at a corresponding dose.
Interventions
HST101 is a novel anti-PCSK9 fusion protein

Intervention model description
the initially enrolled 15 subjects will receive low-dose single SC administration, followed by another 15 subjects will receive high-dose single SC administration.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Men and women who are ≥18 and ≤55 years of age with elevated LDL-C Levels; * LDL-C ≥ 2.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL) and ≤ 4.9 mmol/L (190 mg/dL) and TG ≤ 2.83 mmol/L (250 mg/dL) who are not on a lipid-lowering therapy 30 days prior to screening; * Body mass index (BMI) ≥18 and≤28 kg/m2
Exclusion criteria
* Positive blood screen for HIV antibody, Treponema pallidum antibody, HBsAg or HCV antibody; * Clinically significant liver function test abnormalities at screening, such as AST or ALT \> 2 × ULN, total bilirubin \> 1.5 × ULN, or ALP \> 2 × ULN based on normal values; * CK \> 3 × ULN at the screening visit, it can be retested if considered to be related to exercise; * History of prescription drug abuse, illicit drug use or alcohol abuse; * Use of any prescription drug, herbal and compound decoction, vitamins, minerals, and OTC drugs and nutritional supplements that alter lipid metabolism within 14 days prior to Check-in and planned use of the above drugs throughout the study; * Prior treatment with PCSK9 inhibitors, including mAbs, siRNA products, or any Adnectin products; * History of allergy to protein-based biologics including, but not limited to, mAbs and vaccine; * Less than 30 days or less than 5 half-lives (drug) since the end of participation in another clinical trial (drug or device), whichever is longer; * Use of any other biologics within 3 months prior to investigational product administration; * Any other significant clinical diseases or psychological diseases that the investigator considers to be inappropriate for participation in this study.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of a single SC dose of HST101 in Chinese healthy adult study participants with elevated LDL-C level(International Standard Unit: mmol/L) | 57 days | Safety and tolerability will be assessed by the incidence and severity of treatment emergent adverse events |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| To assess the PD effect of a single SC dose of HST101 on serum unbound (free) PCSK9 concentrations and serum LDL-C concentrations | 57 days | Serum free PCSK9 and LDL-C will be measured at baseline and various time points over 57 days |
| To assess the effect of a single SC dose of HST101 on blood lipids including TC, HDL-C, VLDL-C, and TG | 57 days | Serum TC,HDL-C,VLDL-C and TG(ISU:mmol/L)will be measured at baseline and various time points over 57 days to assess percent change from baseline over time |
| To assess the effect of a single SC dose of HST101 on serum ApoB, Apo A1 concentrations | 57 days | Serum Apo B(ISU:mg/dL) , Apo A1(ISU:mg/dL) concentrations will be measured at baseline and various time points over 57 days to assess percent change from baseline over time |
| To assess the pharmacokinetic characteristics and dose proportionality relathionship of HST101 following a single SC dose | 57 days | The PK parameters include Cmax, Tmax, T1/2, AUC0-t, AUCinf and others if necessary |
| To assess the PK-PD relationship following a single SC dose of HST101 | 57 days | The PK-PD relationship will be measured over 57 days |
| To assess immunogenicity (incidence, titer, and duration of ADAs/NAbs) following a single SC dose of HST101 | 57 days | Measurement of ADAs/NAbs will be done at baseline and various intervals after HST101 administration |
| To assess the effect of a single SC dose of HST101 on serum Lp(a) concentrations | 57 days | Serum Lp (a)(ISU: nmol/L) concentrations will be measured at baseline and various time points over 57 days to assess percent change from baseline over time |
