Janssen Research & Development, LLC82 enrolled

Overview

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and tolerability of JNJ 66525433 compared with placebo after administration of: 1) single ascending oral doses of JNJ 66525433 administered to healthy participants (Part 1), 2) multiple, ascending oral doses of JNJ 66525433, administered to healthy participants once daily over 14 consecutive days (Part 2), and 3) multiple oral doses of JNJ 66525433, administered once daily over 14 consecutive and once daily over 42 consecutive days in participants with ulcerative colitis (UC) (Part 3).

Medical Language ↔ Plain English

Inclusion Criteria: For Part 1 and Part 2, healthy volunteers * Have a body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 30 kilogram per meter square (kg/m\^2) (BMI = weight/height), inclusive, and a body weight of no less than 50 kilogram (kg) and maximum weight of 100 kg * Have normal bowel movements, ranging from 1 to 3 times daily to every other day and have normal consistencies according to the Bristol Stool Scale, ranging from 3 to 5 at admission For Part 3, participants with ulcerative colitis (UC) * Have a clinical diagnosis of UC at least 3 months before screening * Have moderately to severely active UC, defined as a Week 0 mayo score of 6 to 12, inclusive, based on central read of the video endoscopy performed during the screening * Have a greater than or equal to (\>=) 2 endoscopy subscore of the Week 0 mayo score based on central read of the video endoscopy performed during the screening Exclusion Criteria: For Part 1 and Part 2, healthy volunteers * History of liver or renal insufficiency, significant cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurologic, hematologic, rheumatologic, psychiatric, or metabolic disturbances * Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to antisense oligonucleotides, JNJ-66525433 or its excipients For Part 3, participants with UC * Has UC limited to the rectum only or to \<20 centimeter (cm) of the colon evaluated by endoscopy at screening * Presence of a stoma * Presence or history of a fistula at any time COVID-related * If a participant is excluded due to recent Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) related features, the reason for screen failure should be documented in the case report form under the exclusion criterion of having a condition for which participation would not be in the participant's interest or could confound study assessments * The field of COVID-related testing (for presence of, and immunity to, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 \[SARS-CoV-2\] virus) is rapidly evolving. Additional testing may be performed as part of screening and/or during the study if deemed necessary by the investigator and in accordance with current regulations / guidance from authorities / standards of care

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Part 1, 2 and 3: Number of Participants with Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. Any AE occurring at or after the initial administration of study intervention through the day of last dose plus 30 days will be considered as TEAE.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 1, 2 and 3: Number of Participants with Vital Sign Abnormalities

Number of participants with vital sign abnormalities (temperature), pulse/heart rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure) will be reported.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 1, 2 and 3: Number of Participants with Physical Examination Abnormalities

Number of participants with physical examination abnormalities will be reported.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 1, 2 and 3: Number of Participants with Hematology Laboratory Abnormalities

Number of participants with hematology laboratory abnormalities will be reported.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 1, 2 and 3: Number of Participants with Chemistry Laboratory Abnormalities

Number of participants with chemistry laboratory abnormalities will be reported.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 1, 2 and 3: Number of Participants with Urinalysis Laboratory Abnormalities

Number of participants with abnormalities in urinalysis will be reported.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 2 and 3: Number of Participants with Abnormalities in High Sensitivity C- Reactive Protein (hs-CRP)

Number of participants with abnormalities in hs-CRP will be reported using a validated, high sensitivity CRP assay.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 2 and 3: Number of Participants with Abnormalities in Fecal Calprotectin

Assays for fecal calprotectin will be performed using a validated method.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 2 and 3: Incidence of Enteric Pathogens in Stool Samples

Stool culture and Clostridium difficile toxin assay will be used for enteric pathogen assessment.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 1, 2 and 3: Number of Participants with Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities

Number of participants with ECG abnormalities will be reported.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Secondary Outcomes

Part 1, 2 and 3: Plasma Concentrations of JNJ-66525433

Plasma concentrations of JNJ-66525433 will be reported.

Time frame: Up to 224 Days

Part 1: Plasma Concentrations of JNJ-66525433 After Fasted or Fed Dosing

Plasma concentrations of JNJ-66525433 after fasted or fed dosing will be reported.

Time frame: Up to Day 14

Part 3: Mayo Score

Mayo scoring system is used for assessment of ulcerative colitis activity. The Mayo score consists of 4 subscores (stool frequency, rectal bleeding, physician's global assessment, and endoscopy findings) each ranges from 0 to 3. The Mayo score is calculated as the sum of these 4 subscores and can range between 0 and 12, where higher score indicates severe disease.

Time frame: Up to Day 84

Part 3: Partial Mayo Score

Partial Mayo score is calculated as the sum of 3 subscores (stool frequency, rectal bleeding, and physician's global assessment) and ranges from 0 to 9 points. Higher score indicates severe disease.

Time frame: Up to Day 70

Part 3: Endoscopic Subscore

Endoscopy sub-score ranges from 0 to 3 where; 0 = normal or inactive disease; 1 = mild disease (erythema, decreased vascular pattern, mild friability); 2 = moderate disease (marked erythema, absent vascular pattern, friability, erosions); 3 = severe disease (spontaneous bleeding, ulceration).

Time frame: Up to Day 84

Part 3: Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) Total Score

IBDQ18 is a validated, 32-item, self-reported questionnaire for participants with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that will be used to evaluate the disease-specific health-related quality of life across 4 dimensional scores: bowel symptoms (loose stools, abdominal pain), systemic functions (fatigue, altered sleep pattern), social function (work attendance, need to cancel social events), and emotional function (anger, depression, irritability). Scores range from 32 to 224, with higher scores indicating better outcomes.

Part 2 and 3: Target Engagement of Messenger Ribonucleic Acid (mRNA) Levels

Levels of mRNA knockdown will be reported to assess target engagement in biopsy tissue by dose level over time.

Time frame: Up to 182 Days

Part 2 and 3: Tissue Biopsy JNJ-66525433 Concentrations

Tissue biopsy concentrations of JNJ-66525433 will be reported.

Time frame: Up to 182 Days

Plasma Concentrations of JNJ-66525433 After Two Meal Timing Conditions

Plasma concentrations of JNJ-66525433 after two meal timing condition (fed state to modified fasted state) will be reported (if conducted).

Time frame: Up to 22 Days

Faecal Concentrations of JNJ-66525433 After Two Meal Timing Conditions

Stool assessment will be done to characterize the presence of JNJ-66525433 after two meal timing conditions (fed state to modified fasted state) will be reported (if conducted).

Time frame: Predose, up to 120 hours postdose
