A Study to Evaluate Safety and Tolerability of BMN 111 Administered to Healthy Adult Volunteers

A Phase 1, Two-Part, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Single and Multiple Doses of BMN 111 Administered to Healthy Adult Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to measure how much of the study drug gets into the blood- stream and how long it takes the body to get rid of it when given as a single dose. Information about any side effects that may occur will also be collected.

• Heart block or intraventricular conduction defect
• Has diabetes mellitus Type I or Type II
• Is being treated with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, antihypertensive medications, diuretics, calcium-channel blockers, beta-blockers, cardiac glycosides, systemic anticholinergic agents, or drugs that may impair or enhance compensatory tachycardia
• Is being treated with growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), or anabolic steroids.
• Has any acute illness associated with volume dehydration (e.g., nausea/vomiting/diarrhea).
• Uses of any prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, or nutritional supplements within 10 days prior to dosing.
• Uses any other investigational product or investigational medical device within 90 days prior to screening or requires any investigational agent prior to completion of all scheduled study assessments.
• Consumes at least 14 units/week of alcohol (1 unit approximates 360 mL beer, 100 mL wine, or 35 mL spirits) or has significant history of alcoholism or drug/chemical abuse as determined by the Investigator.
• Has donated > 50 mL of blood or plasma within 60 days prior to study treatment administration.
• Has a positive urine drug screen or alcohol breath test result during Screening or upon admission to the research facility.
• Has used nicotine or tobacco-containing products (snuff, chewing tobacco, cigarettes,cigars, pipes, and nicotine replacements) within 90 days of the first dose of study treatment as confirmed by urine cotinine screen.
• Has a positive cotinine test result during Screening or upon admission to the research facility.
• Has a history of any clinically significant neurological, gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, psychiatric, respiratory, metabolic, endocrine, hematological, or other major disorders as determined by the Investigator.
• Has had a clinically significant illness within 4 weeks of administration of the first dose of study treatment as determined by the Investigator.

• Has known hypersensitivity to BMN 111 or its excipients.
• Has partner planning to become pregnant at any time during the study.
• Has any condition that, in the view of the Investigator, places the subject at high risk of poor treatment compliance or of not completing the study.
