A Single Dose-Escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Orally Administered DAA-I in Healthy Subjects

National University Hospital, Singapore18 enrolled

Overview

This is a placebo-controlled randomized phase 1 study to investigate the safety and pharmacokinetics of DAA-I in a cohort of healthy subjects.

The study will be a single-blind, step-wise dose escalation, placebo controlled study in healthy subjects consisting of up to 3 dose steps of DAA-I. In the sequential step wise design, a single dose of DAA-I or placebo will be administered to 6 subjects for one treatment group. For each dose step, 4 subjects will receive DAA-I and 2 subjects will receive placebo. Subjects will be randomly allocated to one dose step. Step One would have to be completed before Step Two. Escalation up to Step Two and subsequent steps would depend on the safety results from the preceding step(s). There will be an interval of 6 hours between the dosing of the first and second DAA-I-treated volunteers of each cohort to allow for early cardiovascular monitoring. Only if there are no safety signals identify from these subjects as assessed by the Safety Review Committee can simultaneous dosing of the remaining volunteers be carried out.

History or presence of cardiovascular, respiratory, hepatic, renal, gastrointestinal, neurological disorders capable of altering the absorption, metabolism or elimination of drugs, or of constituting a risk factor when taking the study medication. 2. Evidence of significant active haematologic disease and/or blood donation in the last 3 months. 3. Are pregnant or intend to become pregnant during the course of the study. 4. Sexually active women of childbearing age not actively practising birth control by using oral contraceptives or an intrauterine device (IUD). 5. Women who are lactating. 6. History of allergic reactions to angiotensin inhibitor (AI), angiotensin II inhibitors, DAA-I or other relevant allergic reactions of any origins. 7. Participation in a study involving administration of an investigational compound within the past 30 days.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Evaluate the safety and dose range of DAA-I after single oral dose administration

Evaluate the safety (in terms of effect on normal blood pressure, pulse, and 12-lead ECG) of DAA-I following a single oral administration in 12 healthy subjects (0.08 mg/kg/subject in 4 subjects, 0.7 mg/kg/subject in 4 subjects, and 1.5 mg/kg/subject in 4 subjects).

Time frame: 24 hours

Secondary Outcomes

Evaluate the pharmacokinetics of DAA-I after single oral dose administrations

Evaluate the plasma level of DAA-I in each subject at baseline (0 hr) and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 12 hr after oral administration of a single-dose of DAA-I, and determine the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC).

Time frame: 24 hours
