Phase I Study GX-G3 in Healthy Subjects

A Dose-block Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Dose-escalation Phase I Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, and PK/PD of GX-G3 After Single SC Administration in Healthy Male Subjects

pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of GX-G3 after single subcutaneous administration in healthy male subjects.

MTD will be determined by DLT occurrence and frequency, and severity and charactoristic of adverse event, vital sign, physical examination, ECG, Laboratory test, chest-X-ray will be examined for safety evaluation.

The second purpose is to evaluate pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, and immunogenecity will be evaluated to investigate antibody production.
