Brief summary
This was a double blind, randomized, placebo controlled, single and multiple IV dose study conducted in 2 parts, single ascending dose and multiple ascending doses parts. The principal aim of this study was to obtain safety and tolerability data when PA-001 is administered IV as single and multiple doses to healthy subjects. This information, together with the PK data, will help establish the doses and dosing regimen suitable for future studies in patients. The study also investigated the effects of age on the PK of PA-001 prior to patient studies.
Interventions

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence and severity of adverse events after single and multiple IV dosed of PA-001 in healthy subjects | For approx. 8 weeks | An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a subject, temporally associated with the use of study intervention. A serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, met one or more of the following criteria: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, resulted in a congenital anomaly/birth defect and resulted in an important medical events. TEAEs were defined as events that occurred after start of treatment. |
| Incidence of laboratory abnormalities (hematology, clinical chemistry and urinalysis test) | For approx. 8 weeks | Clinical hematology parameters included: hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell count, platelet count, white blood cell count, total neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes, basophils, lymphocytes, mean cell hemoglobin (MCH), MCH concentration and mean cell volume. Chemistry parameters included: blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate, glucose, calcium, sodium, potassium, chloride, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, uric acid, albumin, total protein, bicarbonate, gamma-glutamyl transferase, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, B-type natriuretic peptide, highly sensitive troponin T and lactate dehydrogenase. Urinalysis parameters included: potential of hydrogen (pH), glucose, protein, blood, ketones, nitrite, leukocyte esterase, bilirubin, color and appearance, specific gravity. |
| 12-lead electrocardiogram parameters | For approx. 8 weeks | A 12-lead ECG was performed. Clinically meaningful findings in ECG assessments were based on the investigator's judgment |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| AUCinf of PA-001 in plasma following single and multiple IV dose | SAD: predose to 48 hours after start of infusion, MAD: predose to 48 hours after start of the last infusion | AUCinf was calculated as AUClast + (Clast/kel) where Clast was the predicted plasma concentration at the last quantifiable time point from the log-linear regression analysis and kel was the terminal phase rate constant calculated by a linear regression of the log linear concentration-time curve |
| AUClast of PA-001 in plasma following single and multiple IV dose | SAD: predose to 48 hours after start of infusion, MAD: predose to 48 hours after start of the last infusion | AUClast was calculated as area under the concentration time curve from time 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration |
| Cmax of PA-001 in plasma following a single and multiple IV dose | SAD: predose to 48 hours after start of infusion, MAD: predose to 48 hours after start of the last infusion | Cmax was maximum observed concentration. Cmax was observed directly from data |
| T1/2 of PA-001 in plasma following single and multiple IV dose | SAD: predose to 48 hours after start of infusion, MAD: predose to 48 hours after start of the last infusion | T1/2 was terminal elimination half life |
| Percent Urinary Recovery of PA-001 following single IV dose | SAD only, predose to 48 hours after start of infusion | Percentage of the dose administered recovered over the time interval, 0 hour to the end of collection |
