A Study to Test How Healthy Men Tolerate Different Doses of BI 1595043

Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Rising Oral Doses of BI 1595043 (Double-blind, Randomised, Placebocontrolled, Parallel Group Design) in Healthy Male Subjects

The primary objectives of this trial are to investigate safety and tolerability of BI 1595043 in healthy male subjects following administration of multiple rising doses over 14 days.

Secondary objectives are the exploration of pharmacokinetics (PK) of BI 1595043 after single and multiple dosing.

• BMI of 18.5 to 29.9 kg/m2 (inclusive)
• Signed and dated written informed consent prior to admission to the study, in accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and local legislation

• Male subjects who meet any of the following criteria from at least 30 days before the first administration of trial medication until 30 days after trial completion:

  • Use of adequate contraception, i.e. use of condom (male subjects) plus any of the following methods (female partners): intrauterine device, hormonal contraception (e.g. implants, injectables, combined oral or vaginal contraceptives) that started at least 2 months prior to first drug administration to the male subject, or barrier method (e.g. diaphragm with spermicide), or surgically sterilised (including bilateral tubal occlusion, hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy), or postmenopausal, defined as at least 1 year of spontaneous amenorrhea
  • Sexually abstinent
  • Vasectomised (vasectomy at least 1 year prior to enrolment) in combination with a barrier method (i.e. condom) Unprotected sexual intercourse (i.e. without use of condom) with a pregnant female partner and sperm donation is not allowed throughout the study and until 30 days after trial completion

Exclusion Criteria:

• Any finding in the medical examination (including BP, PR or ECG) deviating from normal and assessed as clinically relevant by the investigator
• Repeated measurement of systolic blood pressure outside the range of 90 to 140 millimetre of mercury (mmHg), diastolic blood pressure outside the range of 50 to 90 mmHg, or pulse rate outside the range of 45 to 90 beats per minute (bpm)
• Any laboratory value outside the reference range that the investigator considers to be of clinical relevance
• Any evidence of a concomitant disease assessed as clinically relevant by the investigator
• Gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic, immunological or hormonal disorders
• Cholecystectomy or other surgery of the gastrointestinal tract that could interfere with the pharmacokinetics of the trial medication (except appendectomy or simple hernia repair)
• Diseases of the central nervous system (including but not limited to any kind of seizures or stroke), and other relevant neurological or psychiatric disorders
• History of relevant orthostatic hypotension, fainting spells, or blackouts
• Further exclusion criteria apply

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With Drug-related Adverse Events (AEs)	Percentage of participants with drug-related adverse events (AEs). The causal relationship of AEs to the investigational product was judged by the investigator. The investigator was asked to record a 'yes' if there was, in his/her judgement, a reasonable causal relationship between the investigational product administered and the AE or a 'no' if there was, in his/her judgement, no reasonable causal relationship between the investigational product administered and the AE.	From first drug administration until end of trial examination, up to 30 days.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
