Brief summary
The aim of this multi-part Phase 1 study is to evaluate the drug-drug interaction (DDI) potential of ALG-097558 via co-administration with a P-gp substrate (dabigatran) and a CYP3A4 inhibitor/P-gp inhibitor (itraconazole). In addition, this study will evaluate the relative bioavailability and food effect of a new tablet formulation for ALG-097558. This study consists of 3 parts, all conducted in healthy volunteers (HV). Study Parts A and B are designed to assess the perpetrator or victim DDI risk of ALG-097558 mediated by CYP/P-gp interactions in healthy adult subjects. Part A will evaluate the potential impact of itraconazole, a CYP3A potent inhibitor, while Part B will investigate the potential impact of ALG-097558 (perpetrator) on dabigatran etexilate, a P-gp transporter substrate. Study Part C is designed to study the bioavailability of a new formulation of the ALG-097558 tablet and the food effect on this tablet. This study has one primary objective for each part of the study. For Part A: to evaluate the effect of a CYP3A4 inhibitor/Pg-p inhibitor, itraconazole, on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ALG-097558 and the metabolite, ALG-097730. For Part B: to evaluate the effect of multiple doses of ALG-097558 on the pharmacokinetics of a P-gp substrate, dabigatran. For Part C: to evaluate the relative bioavailability of 2 different tablet formulations of ALG-097558 and effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of ALG-097558 and the metabolite, ALG-097730.
Detailed description
The aim of this multi-part Phase 1 study is to evaluate the drug-drug interaction (DDI) potential of ALG-097558 via co-administration with a P-gp substrate (dabigatran) and a CYP3A4 inhibitor/P-gp inhibitor (itraconazole). In addition, this study will evaluate the relative bioavailability and food effect of a new tablet formulation for ALG-097558. This study consists of 3 parts, all conducted in healthy volunteers (HV). As ALG-097558 is a substrate of CYP3A4 and P-gp transporters, any concomitant administration of an inhibitor or inducer drug may alter its exposures. Part A will evaluate the potential impact of itraconazole, a CYP3A potent inhibitor, on the ALG-097558 (victim) systemic exposure in a single group, partially-blinded study. Part B will investigate the potential impact of ALG-097558 (perpetrator) on dabigatran etexilate, a P-gp transporter substrate in a single group, open-label study. Study Part C is designed to study the bioavailability of a new formulation of the ALG-097558 tablet and the food effect on this tablet in an open-label, randomized, crossover study. This study has one primary objective for each part of the study. For Part A: to evaluate the effect of a CYP3A4 inhibitor/Pg-p inhibitor, itraconazole, on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ALG-097558 and the metabolite, ALG-097730. For Part B: to evaluate the effect of multiple doses of ALG-097558 on the pharmacokinetics of a P-gp substrate, dabigatran. For Part C: to evaluate the relative bioavailability of 2 different tablet formulations of ALG-097558 and effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of ALG-097558 and the metabolite, ALG-097730.The study has secondary objectives for each part of the study as well. For Part A: to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single doses of ALG-097558 in HV participants when administered as monotherapy or in combination with itraconazole. For part B: to evaluate the safety and tolerability and PK of multiple doses of ALG-097558 in HV participants when administered alone or in combination with dabigatran. For part C: to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single doses of ALG-097558 in HV participants.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Participant is able to read the written informed consent, states willingness to comply with all study procedures, and is anticipated to be available for all study visits. 2. Male or female adults between 18 and 65 years of age, inclusive. 3. Female participants must either be postmenopausal\*, permanently sterile\*\*, or of childbearing potential with acceptable birth control methods\*\*\*. \*Postmenopausal: a postmenopausal state is defined as no menses for at least 12 months without an alternative medical explanation, confirmed by a high follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level in the postmenopausal range at screening. NOTE: If there is a question about menopausal status in women on hormone replacement therapy (HRT), the woman will be required to use one of the protocol-defined non-estrogen-containing hormonal highly effective contraceptive methods if she wishes to continue HRT during the study. \*\*Permanently sterile: methods include hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral tubal occlusion. * Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP): are only eligible if they and any non-sterile, male sexual partners agree to use protocol-defined highly effective (dependent or independent) contraceptive therapy, from the start of dosing until at least 90 days after the last dose. Acceptable method of contraception, hormonal contraceptives (e.g., oral, injectable, implantable, insertable, and transdermal patch), intrauterine device (with or without hormones), or double-barrier method (e.g., condom and spermicide) for 30 days prior to Screening, during the study, and for 90 days following the last administration of investigational product (IP). WOCBP must also agree to refrain from egg donations during the study and for at least 90 days following the last administration of IP. 4. Male participants who must agree to wear a condom with spermicide during sexual intercourse.\* \*These contraceptive measures must be implemented, at a minimum, from the start of dosing until at least 90 days after the last dose.
