Brief Summary

This study is a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of ciraparantag administered to healthy volunteers anticoagulated with apixaban measuring clotting times using Whole Blood Clotting Time (WBCT).

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled assessment of the efficacy and safety of ciraparantag administered to healthy volunteers measuring clotting times using WBCT as determined by the manual testing method. All subjects will undergo screening up to 36 days prior to enrollment.

All enrolled subjects are to receive 10 mg apixaban orally for 3.5 days (every 12 hours on Days 1-3 and once on the morning of Day 4). On Day 4, subjects who achieve sufficient anticoagulation (WBCT ≥20% above baseline) are randomized and will receive a single dose of study drug (ciraparantag or placebo) intravenously (IV) approximately 3 hours after the apixaban dose, followed by serial testing of manual WBCT.

Subjects are enrolled sequentially into 3 ciraparantag dose cohorts. There will be a safety review after completion of treatment in one cohort and prior to initiation of treatment in the subsequent cohort.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

1. Adults age 50 to 75 years, inclusive

2. Laboratory tests (chemistry, hematology and coagulation assessments) and urinalysis performed during screening up to 36 days prior to administration of study treatment deemed not clinically significant by the principal investigator.

3. No clinically significant findings on 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) performed during screening

4. Body mass index (BMI) 18 to ≤ 32 kg/m2, inclusive

5. Male subjects agree to use appropriate contraception (i.e., latex condom with spermicide) in addition to their partner using an acceptable form of contraception (e.g., diaphragm, cervical cap, intrauterine device, hormonal contraceptives, surgical sterilization or post-menopausal), when engaging in sexual activity during the course of the study. Moreover, male subjects should not donate sperm or attempt to impregnate a partner during the course of the study and for a period of 12 weeks following discharge from the study.

6. Female subjects must have negative pregnancy tests at screening and check-in AND: be surgically sterile at least 6 months prior to the first dose (with documentation of hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral tubal ligation/tubal occlusion); OR post-menopausal (no menstruation for a minimum of 12 months and confirmed by follicle stimulating hormone [FSH] of ≥ 40 mIU/ml and serum estradiol < 30 pg/ml at screening and check-in); OR if of childbearing potential, must be using an acceptable method of contraception such as an intrauterine device (IUD), implant or contraceptive injection, or two forms of the following (e.g., diaphragm, cervical cap, patch or vaginal hormonal contraceptive, condom, spermicide, or sponge) for the last three months. All females must agree to continue to use their method of birth control for the duration of the study and for a minimum of one complete menstrual cycle from the study

7. Subjects who have participated in a prior study of ciraparantag must have been discharged from the study a minimum of 1 month prior to the planned treatment.

8. Subjects must understand and agree to comply with the requirements of the study and they must be willing to sign the informed consent form indicating voluntary consent to participate in the study prior to initiation of screening or study-related activities -

Exclusion Criteria

1. History or current evidence of clinically significant cardiac, hepatic, renal, pulmonary, endocrine, neurologic, infectious, gastrointestinal (including gallbladder disease or surgery), hematologic, or oncologic disease as determined by screening history, physical examination, laboratory test results or 12-lead ECG assessment. History or current evidence of liver function tests greater than 50% of the upper limit of normal (ULN) or renal function tests (serum creatinine) greater than 1.5 mg/dl and based on PI discretion. History or current evidence of QTc (QTcF) greater than normal (450 msec for males or 470 msec for females).

2. History of unexplained syncope

3. History of major bleeding, trauma, or surgical procedure of any type based on PI discretion
