Study To Assess the Safety and Tolerability of PBF-509 in Male Healthy Volunteers

Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled "First In-human" Study To Assess the Safety and Tolerability of Single Ascending Oral Doses of PBF-509 in Male Healthy Volunteers

No clinical trials with PBF-509 in humans have been performed to date. Only preclinical studies have been done to assess the pharmacology and pharmacokinetics, the safety and the toxicological profile of the PBF-509.

An initial testing of PBF-509 in humans is planned, starting with the first-into-man clinical trial where a single oral, dose-escalating, and placebo-controlled design will be implemented.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
PLACEBO_COMPARATOR: Placebo
Placebo capsules: solid microcrystalline cellulose c.s.p
EXPERIMENTAL: PBF-509
The initial dose-escalation scheme includes the following eight doses: 10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg,80 mg, 160 mg, 320 mg, 480 mg and 620 mg. This dose-escalation scheme has been built with the aim to reach the Minimum Intolerated Dose (MID), i.e. when investigator should stop escalating, and consequently the MTD.
