A Phase 1 Study of FZ008-145 in Healthy Subjects.

A Phase 1 Study Assessing Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Physiological Response (Pain Tolerance) to Single and Multiple Ascending Doses of FZ008-145 in Healthy Subjects.

The study will be conducted in 5 parts: Part A and Part B (single ascending dose [SAD] in solution formulation and tablet respectively), Part D and Part D2 (cold pressor test [CPT] to evaluate pain tolerance following single dose), and Part E (multiple ascending doses [MAD] in tablet formulation).

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Healthy
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: FZ008-145 solution; Drug: Placebo; Drug: FZ008-145 Tablet

Detailed Description

• Part A is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, SAD study to assess safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of FZ008-145 solution in healthy subjects. Up to 32 subjects will be enrolled in 4 cohorts.
• Part B is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, SAD study to assess safety, tolerability, and PK of FZ008-145 tablet in healthy subjects. Up to 72 subjects will be enrolled in 9 cohorts.
• Part D is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-period, 3-treatment, 6-sequence crossover study to evaluate the cold pain tolerance effect of FZ008-145 tablet in healthy subjects. A total of 12 healthy subjects will be randomized to receive each of the three treatments (FZ008-145 at two dose levels and placebo) across three treatment periods, with appropriate washout between periods.
• Part D2 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-period, 3-treatment, 6-sequence crossover study to evaluate the cold pain tolerance effect of FZ008-145 tablet in healthy subjects. A total of 12 healthy subjects will be randomized to evaluates higher single oral doses (FZ008-145 at two dose levels and placebo) across three treatment periods, with appropriate washout between periods.
• Part E is an open-label, multiple ascending dose (MAD) study to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of FZ008-145 tablet in healthy subjects. Approximately 48 healthy subjects will be enrolled into 6 sequential cohorts receiving once-daily or twice daily oral doses of FZ008-145 for 14 consecutive days under fasted conditions.
