Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to further access the utility of biochemical and clinical biomarkers for glucocorticoid-mediated anti-inflammatory effects and safety endpoints against which dissociated agonists of the glucocorticoid receptor (DAGR) will be evaluated in adult healthy volunteers.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Sequence A

Period 1: Placebo Period 2: Prednisone 2.5 mg Period 3: Prednisone 10 mg

Group Type OTHER

Prednisone

Intervention Type DRUG

Subjects will receive oral prednisone and/or placebo tablets (total of 4 tablets) to achieve the required dose according to the treatment sequence group they were randomized.

Placebo

Intervention Type DRUG

Placebo tablets similar to Prednisone 2.5 mg and 20 mg were supplied to make the trial doses.

Sequence B
