Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and PK of MRX-8 Administered Intravenously to HVs in SAD and MAD Cohorts

An Adaptive, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled Three Part Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of MRX-8 Administered Intravenously to Healthy Volunteers in Single Ascending and Multiple Ascending Dose Cohorts

This Phase 1 study is designed to assess the safety and tolerability of single and multiple intravenous (IV) doses of MRX-8, to assess the pharmacokinetics of MRX-8 and its primary metabolite following single and multiple IV doses, and to measure the elimination of MRX-8 and its metabolite in urine.

This is a first-in-human, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study consisting of 3 parts. Part 1 will evaluate single ascending doses (SAD) of study drug. Part 2 will evaluate multiple ascending doses (MAD) of study drug administered for 7 days. Part 3 will evaluate MAD of study drug administered for 14 days.
