A Study of EDP-514 in Healthy Subjects (Part 1) and Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection (Part 2)

A Phase 1a/1b Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Single and Multiple Ascending Doses of EDP 514 in Healthy Subjects (Part 1), and Antiviral Activity in Nucleos(t)Ide Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor (NUC)-Suppressed Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection (Part 2)

Part 1 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. It will assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single and multiple orally administered doses of EDP-514 in healthy adult subjects.

Part 2 is randomized, double -blind, placebo-controlled study including subjects with Hepatitis B Virus. It will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and antiviral activity of 28 Days of orally administered doses of EDP-514 in nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NUC)-Suppressed Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection

Part 1 consists of two phases planned in healthy subjects:

The first phase assesses single ascending doses for EDP-514 (active drug or placebo) in healthy subjects. A "fasted" and "fed" two-part cohort will also assess food effect.

The second phase assesses multiple ascending doses (active drug or placebo) for 14 days in healthy subjects.

Each cohort within each phase will enroll a total of 8 subjects who will be randomized to receive EDP-514 or placebo. The cohort assessing food effect will enroll 10 subjects randomized to receive EDP-514 or placebo.

Part 2 assesses multiple ascending doses EDP-514 (active drug or placebo) for 28 days in nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NUC)-Suppressed Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection.

Each cohort in Part 2 will enroll a total of 8 subjects who will be randomized to receive EDP-514 or placebo.
