About this trial

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.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age: Healthy male or female 18 to 55 years of age, inclusive, at time of consent

Body mass index (BMI): BMI ≥ 19.0 and ≤ 30.0 (kg/m2) and weight between 55.0 and 100.0 kg (inclusive)

Health Status: Medically healthy without significant history of any chronic diseases or conditions (such as cardiovascular, renal, hepatic, neurological, hematological, gastrointestinal, endocrine, or musculoskeletal disorders). Volunteers must have no clinically significant abnormalities in medical history, as determined by the Investigator.

No findings in Physical examination or vital signs (including temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure) that the Investigator determines would interfere with interpretation of study results

Disqualifiers

1) Pregnancy and Lactation: Women who are pregnant and/or lactating. 2) Significant Medical History: History or presence of significant cardiovascular (including QT prolongation, clinically significant hypokalemia, or other proarrhythmic conditions), pulmonary, hepatic, renal, hematological, gastrointestinal, endocrine (including glucose intolerance, diabetes mellitus), immunologic (including asthma or seasonal allergies [that require intermittent use of steroids or other medication]), musculoskeletal (including tendinopathy), dermatologic, or neurological disease (including seizure disorders, psychiatric disorders), including any acute illness or surgery within the past 3 months, as determined by the Investigator to be clinically relevant.

History of any kidney disease or current or chronic history of impaired renal function as indicated by a calculated creatinine clearance (Cockcroft-Gault formula) <80 milliliter per minute (mL/min).

Current or chronic history of liver disease or known hepatic or biliary abnormalities (except for Gilbert syndrome or asymptomatic gallstones) 3) Laboratory abnormalities

Sequential

Treatments tested in this trial

  • BWC0977

    Drug

    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 and previous MAD cohorts. Daily dosing will continue for a total of 7-10 consecutive days (as per schedule).

  • Placebo

    Drug

    SAD Cohorts: Two participants in each cohort will receive a matching placebo. MAD Cohorts: Two participants in each cohort will receive a matching placebo.

Treatment groups

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs and serious adverse events (SAEs) overall and by intensity (Safety and tolerability).

Description: This outcome combines the measure of the number of participants experiencing adverse events (AEs), the nature and severity of those AEs and their relationship to the study treatment.

Time frame
SAD: Up to 8 days MAD: Up to 16 days

Secondary outcomes

2

AUC[0-inf] of BWC0977 following single dose administration

Area under the plasma concentration curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-inf) of BWC0977 following single dose administration

Time frame
Immediately before (within 60 minutes before) the start of infusion of the study drug and 5, 10,15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 minutes, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the start of study drug infusion.

Time frame
Immediately before (within 60 minutes before) the start of infusion of the study drug and 5, 10,15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 minutes, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the start of study drug infusion.
4

Cmax of BWC0977 following single dose administration
