About this trial

This Phase 1 study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of continuous intravenous infusion of KL0011034 Injection in healthy Chinese adults. Approximately 30 participants will be enrolled in three sequential infusion-duration cohorts (1, 2, and 3 hours; 10 participants per cohort). Within each cohort, participants will be randomized in a 4:1 ratio to KL0011034 Injection or active-control propofol for anesthesia maintenance. All participants will receive propofol 2 mg/kg for anesthesia induction. Safety, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, recovery, and anesthesia-satisfaction assessments will be performed through 24 hours after dosing. Progression to the next infusion-duration cohort will occur only after the preceding cohort is considered safe and tolerable.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Participants who fully understand the purpose, content, procedures, and possible risks of the study, voluntarily agree to participate, and sign the informed consent form.

Healthy male or female participants aged 18 to 45 years, inclusive, at the time of informed consent.

Body weight ≥50.0 kg for males and ≥45.0 kg for females; body mass index 19.0 to 26.0 kg/m², inclusive.

From informed consent through 3 months after completion of study-drug infusion, the participant and partner have no reproductive plans and the participant has no sperm or egg donation plans; the participant agrees to use at least one non-pharmacologic contraceptive method through the last pharmacokinetic sample and effective contraception through 3 months after infusion.

Disqualifiers

Known allergy to etomidate, propofol, or other anesthetic drugs; allergic constitution (for example, allergy to two or more drugs, foods, or pollen); tendency to rash or urticaria; history of allergic disease; or known allergy to the active ingredient or excipients of KL0011034 Injection.

History of clinically significant cardiovascular, endocrine, respiratory, gastrointestinal, urinary, neurologic, hematologic, lymphatic, or psychiatric disease that remains clinically significant at screening in the investigator's judgment.

History of anesthesia accident, serious anesthesia-related adverse reaction, or family history of anesthesia accident.

Difficult ventilation, suspected difficult airway, or anticipated difficult tracheal intubation, including Modified Mallampati Class III-IV, congenital small mouth with macroglossia, mandibular hypoplasia, or similar findings.

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • KL0011034 Injection

    Drug

    Intravenous maintenance infusion at a recommended rate of 1.1 mg/kg/hour for 1, 2, or 3 hours according to assigned cohort. The investigator may adjust the rate to maintain BIS 40-60; any upward adjustment must remain within the protocol-defined maximum rate of 2.5 mg/kg/hour.

  • Propofol Injectable Emulsion

    Drug

    All participants receive 2 mg/kg intravenously over 1 minute (±5 seconds) for anesthesia induction. In active-comparator arms, maintenance propofol is infused at a suggested rate of 4-12 mg/kg/hour for 1, 2, or 3 hours according to assigned cohort, adjustable to maintain BIS 40-60.
