Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: TERMINATED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE1
• Total Enrollment: 108 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2015-12-31

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to investigate a drug called AG-519, which is being developed for the treatment of a disease called pyruvate kinase deficiency (also known as PK deficiency) and other forms of anemia. This study is a 5 part study with Part 1 enrolling healthy volunteers into single ascending dose (SAD) groups, Part 2 enrolling healthy volunteers into multiple ascending dose (MAD) groups and Part 3 enrolling healthy volunteers to investigate how much of the study drug is taken up by the body and how food affects the uptake of a prototype formulation of AG-519, Part 4 enrolling healthy volunteers of Japanese origin to compare to the results of subjects of non-Japanese origin, and Part 5 a non-randomized, open-label, multiple dose study enrolling healthy volunteers to further investigate how much of the study drug is taken up by the body when dosed over 14 days.

3. Subjects who have previously been enrolled in this study.

4. History of any drug or alcohol abuse in the past 2 years.

5. Regular alcohol consumption in males >21 units per week and females >14 units per week (1 unit = ½ pint beer, 25 mL of 40% spirit or a 125 mL glass of wine).

6. Current smokers and those who have smoked within the last 12 months. A breath carbon monoxide reading of greater than 10 ppm at screening.

7. Any females of childbearing potential.

8. Subjects who do not have suitable veins for multiple venepunctures/cannulation as assessed by the investigator at screening.

9. Subjects who, after 10 min of supine rest, have a systolic blood pressure (BP) ≥140 mmHg (≥150 mmHg in subjects >45 years of age) or a diastolic BP of ≥90 mmHg.

10. Male subjects with QTcF interval (Fridericia's correction factor) ECG >450 msec, or female subjects with QTcF interval ECG >470 msec on screening or Day 1 (pre dose) ECG.
