A Study of a Single Ascending Dose Study of DS-7011a in Healthy Subjects

Study Purpose

This will be the first-in-human study designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single ascending doses of DS-7011a in healthy participants.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

Yes
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05203692
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

This study will assess the safety, PK, and PD properties of single ascending intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) doses of DS-7011a in healthy participants. This study will be conducted in 3 stages:

  • - Stage 1 - single ascending IV dose cohorts of DS-7011a (ie, up to 6 dose levels will be assessed starting at 0.1 mg/kg); - Stage 2 - single ascending SC cohorts of DS-7011a (ie, up to 3 dose levels centered around the estimated therapeutic dose confirmed in Stage 1 will be assessed); and.
  • - Stage 3 - a single IV cohort of DS-7011a in healthy participants of Japanese ethnicity (ie, 1 dose level at the estimated therapeutic dose as confirmed in Stage 1 will be assessed).
