This is a prospective, open-label, phase 1/2a study, dose escalation, to evaluate tolerability, safety, and PK of I.V. administered IPL344 in participants with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
The study is designed to determine the tolerability, safety and PK of IPL344 administered I.V. once a day for 28 days and to identify the maximum tolerated dose. All patients enrolled will have a documented history of ALS disease prior to study enrollment. Treatment will start with 1.7mg/kg with dose escalation by 0.5 mg/kg every 3-4 days and will increase to the maximum dose of 3.2mg/kg. Day 1 to Day 28 patients will be on active treatment. After completion of 28 treatment days, participants who will choose to continue treatment (at the investigator's discretion), will be enrolled in a follow-up study. Participants that discontinue treatment after Day 28 will be followed up by a nurse phone call and return to the clinic for a final visit on Day 56 from the first dose.

Adverse Events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) Reporting
All AEs will be recorded, whether considered minor or serious, drug-related or not
Time frame: (up-to Day 56)
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)
Dose defined as the highest dose with no Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT). DLT will be defined as a Grade ≥ 3 toxicity per participant according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v5.0).
Time frame: Study treatment duration (Day 1 -28 days)
Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile - Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)
Blood will be collected for PK testing on Day 1 prior to and after first dose and on each dose-escalation administration day and on Day 28
Time frame: Pre-Dose and 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60 and 120 minutes after dosing
Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile - Area Under the Curve (AUC)
Blood will be collected for PK testing on Day 1 prior to and after first dose and on each dose-escalation administration day and on Day 28
Time frame: Pre-Dose and 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60 and 120 minutes after dosing
Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile - time to reach maximum plasma concentration (Tmax)
Blood will be collected for PK testing on Day 1 prior to and after first dose and on each dose-escalation administration day and on Day 28
Time frame: Pre-Dose and 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60 and 120 minutes after dosing
Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile - apparent terminal exponential half-life (T1/2)
Blood will be collected for PK testing on Day 1 prior to and after first dose and on each dose-escalation administration day and on Day 28
