About this trial

The first-in-human Phase 1/Phase 2a study described herein will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of ADX-038 in both healthy participants (HP) and in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH).

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Participants who are healthy as determined by medical evaluation

History of recent meningococcal, pneumococcal and Haemophilus influenzae type B vaccinations or willing to be vaccinated

Screening tests negative for illicit drug, nicotine, and alcohol use

Disqualifiers

History of any significant medical conditions, except for completely excised non-melanoma skin cancer or low grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia without evidence of recurrence within the prior 3 months

Any viral, bacterial, parasitic, or fungal infection within the prior 30 days

Frequent respiratory, nasopharyngeal or ear infections (more than 5 infections per year)

History of environmental exposure or sick contact that increase the risk of meningococcal, pneumococcal and/or Haemophilus influenza type B infections
