Brief Summary

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

This is a Phase 1, first-in-human study designed to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of NLY01, a PEGylated form of exenatide, in healthy volunteers. NLY01 is being developed as a potential treatment for neurodegenerative disorders including Parkinson's disease. This study is intended to identify the appropriate dose-range for evaluation in Parkinson's disease patients.

Detailed Description

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

This is a Phase 1, first-in-human, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, single and multiple-dose study to assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of NLY01, a PEGylated form of the anti-diabetic peptide exenatide, when administered by SC injection in healthy subjects.

In Part A of the study, 5 ascending-dose cohorts will be sequentially enrolled with an evaluation of safety and tolerability prior to each dose-escalation. Subjects in each cohort will be randomized to receive NLY01 or placebo. Each dose escalation and selection of doses for Part B will be conducted with oversight by an independently-chaired Safety Review Committee.

In Part B, subjects will receive once-weekly subcutaneous doses of NLY01 or placebo for 4 weeks. Three ascending-dose cohorts will be sequentially-enrolled with a safety review prior to each dose-escalation. Subjects in all Part B cohorts will receive fixed doses of NLY01 (or placebo) once-weekly for 4 weeks.

Part A: Single Dose

Cohort 1 = 0.25 mg NLY01 Cohort 2 = 0.8 mg NLY01 Cohort 3 = 2.5 mg NLY01 Cohort 4 = 5 mg NLY01 Cohort 5 = 10 mg NLY01

All cohorts include 8 subjects randomized to receive a single dose of NLY01 or placebo (6 active, 2 placebo).

Intervention Type DRUG

Part B: Multiple Dose

In Part B, NLY01 or placebo will be administered once-weekly for 4 doses. There will be 3 sequentially-enrolled, ascending-dose cohorts of 8 subjects (6 active, 2 placebo). Doses in Part B will be a fraction of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) established in Part A.

Cohort 6 = 15% of the single-dose MTD Cohort 7 = 35% of the single-dose MTD Cohort 8 = 70% of the single-dose MTD

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Men or women, 18 to 65 years of age, inclusive.
* BMI ≥ 18.5 and ≤ 32.0 kg/m2 at screening and check-in. BMI = weight (kg)/(height \[m\])2.
* Women of child-bearing potential must agree to use a medically acceptable method of contraception from screening through 30 days after the final dose of study drug.
* Non-childbearing potential.
* Men who are sexually active and whose partners are women of child-bearing potential must agree to use condoms from screening through 90 days after administration of study drug, and their partners must be willing to use a medically acceptable method of contraception (a barrier method, intrauterine device, or hormonal contraception) from screening through 90 days after administration of the last dose of study drug.
* Men must agree to not donate sperm from screening through 90 days after study drug administration.
* Subjects must be able to communicate effectively with the study personnel.
* Subjects must be healthy and without clinically significant abnormalities as assessed by review of medical and surgical history, physical examination, vital signs measurement, ECG, and laboratory evaluations conducted at screening and on Day -1 Check-in. A single repeat measurement/test may be performed to confirm vital signs, ECG, and clinical laboratory tests abnormalities (ie, to confirm that a subject is eligible).
* Subjects must be nonsmokers, defined as having abstained from tobacco- or nicotine containing products (eg, cigarettes, chewing tobacco, snuff, nicotine patches, and electronic cigarettes) in the 6 months prior to screening.
* Subjects must be informed of the nature and risks of the study and give written informed consent prior to screening.

* History or presence of conditions that may place the subject at increased risk as determined by the investigator.
* History of surgery or major trauma within 12 weeks of screening, or surgery planned during the study.
* History of alcohol abuse, illicit drug use, significant mental illness, physical dependence to any opioid, or any history of drug abuse or addiction within 12 months of screening.

* Has taken other investigational drugs or participated in any clinical study within 60 days or 5 half-lives (if known) of the investigational drug's PK, PD, or biological activity (if known), whichever is longer, prior to administration of the first dose of study drug in this study or is currently participating in another clinical study.
