Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this trial is to the assess the safety, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacokinetics of escalating doses of Imprime PGG™ Injection in healthy volunteers.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intravenous dose of Imprime PGG versus placebo when administered to healthy adult subjects by assessing the frequency, type, and severity of treatment emergent adverse events.

The secondary objectives are:

1. to determine the pharmacodynamics of a single intravenous dose of Imprime PGG when administered to healthy adult subjects by assessing the number of subjects who experience a 15% or more increase from baseline in the percentage of neutrophils with primed CR3; and
2. to derive the pharmacokinetic profile of a single intravenous dose of Imprime PGG when administered to healthy adult subjects by assessing the plasma concentration of Imprime PGG versus time.
