Objectives: The primary and secondary objectives of the study are presented below. Exploratory objectives are presented in the body of the protocol. Primary: • To determine the safety and tolerability of RN0191 administered as escalating single subcutaneously (SC) doses in adult subjects with elevated low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol Secondary: * To evaluate the single-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of RN0191 in adult subjects with elevated low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol * To evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD) effect of RN0191 on serum levels of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) * To evaluate the PD effect of RN0191 on plasma levels of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9)
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, single ascending-dose (SAD) study of RN0191 administered SC to adult subjects with elevated low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol. Subjects who have signed an Ethics Committee (EC)-approved informed consent form (ICF) and have met all the protocol eligibility criteria during screening may be enrolled into the study. The study only has one part: SAD cohorts with Sentinel Dosing The starting dose for subjects in Cohort 1 will be 25 mg RN0191 (or placebo). The following are the planned dose levels for subsequent cohorts in the SAD phase: * Cohort 2: 100 mg RN0191 or placebo * Cohort 3: 300 mg RN0191 or placebo * Cohort 4: 500 mg RN0191 or placebo
