A Phase I, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Single-dose, Dose-escalation Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetic Profiles of AK0406 in Healthy Adult Participants
This study is a phase I, single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of AK0406 as a first-in-human (FIH) trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of AK0406 in healthy adult participants.
This study consists of four cohorts: Cohort A: 150 milligram (mg) subcutaneous injection (s.c.) Cohort B: 300 mg s.c. Cohort C: 600 mg s.c. Cohort D: 900 mg s.c. Each cohort will enroll 8 healthy adult participants (AK0406: placebo = 3: 1), including both females and males. Dose escalation will follow a sequential order, beginning with the lowest dose 150 mg and proceeding to 300 mg, 600 mg, and finally 900 mg. A sentinel-dosing strategy will be implemented. For the first cohort (Cohort A) and the last cohort (Cohort D): the first two participants (1 AK0406, 1 placebo) will be dosed and observed for at least 7 days. The first two participants (1 AK0406, 1 placebo) in Cohort B and Cohort C will be dosed and observed for over 48 hours. After both the investigator and sponsor agree with the acceptable safety and tolerability profile, the remaining 6 participants (5 AK0406, 1 placebo) in that cohort will be dosed.
