Brief Summary

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

The primary objectives are to evaluate the effect of AN777 on muscle strength loss that occurs during bed rest, and to investigate whether AN777, in association with resistance training, will support muscle strength recovery following bed rest in healthy elderly subjects.
