A Phase 1, First in Human Study to Investigate the Safety and Tolerability of PA401

July 18, 2013 updated by: ProtAffin Biotechnologie AG

A Phase 1, FIH, Double-blind, Randomised Placebo-controlled Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Immunogenicity and Pharmacokinetics of PA401, and the Effects of PA401 Following LPS Challenge, in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to examine the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity and the way the body absorbs, distributes, breaks down and excretes various increasing single and multiple subcutaneous doses of PA401 in healthy subjects.

This study will also look at the effect of PA401 on inflammation in the lungs following an inhaled lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge (LPS is a bacterial cell wall fragment) and sputum induction (a procedure performed to help to cough up sputum (phlegm)) after a single subcutaneous dose of two dose levels.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Subcutaneous
Experimental: PA401
PA401 is a potent inhibitor of neutrophil activation and transmigration under development as a novel parenteral anti-inflammatory therapy for respiratory indications such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and Cystic Fibrosis (CF). PA401 is a genetically engineered and recombinantly expressed mutant of the bioactive form of human interleukin-8.
Part A of Study: Subcutaneous, 0.1mg to 50mg, single ascending doses Part B of Study: Subcutaneous, up to 17.1mg, single dose
