Brief Summary

This first in human study is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled single ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of intravenous PNT001 in healthy adult participants.

Detailed Description

This Phase 1 clinical trial is a multicenter, double-blind, single ascending dose trial evaluating safety in up to a total of 48 participants across up to 6 dose cohorts, 5 planned and 1 to be determined if an additional dose group is required. Each cohort will include 8 participants (6 active, 2 placebo) who will receive a single dose of either PNT001 or placebo. Within each cohort a sentinel group of 2 participants (1 active, 1 placebo) will be enrolled to evaluate safety and tolerability before enrolling the full cohort. If there are no safety concerns (as determined by the data and safety monitoring board [DSMB]), the remaining 6 participants (randomized as 5 active, 1 placebo) will be enrolled. This process will be followed for all additional cohorts.

After screening, and laboratory assessments at Day -1, eligible participants will be admitted to the research unit on Day 1 (or Day -1 at Investigator's discretion), where they will remain for three (or four) nights with standardized meals provided during their inpatient stay. On Day 1, participants will be randomized to receive either active drug or placebo. Study medication will be administered as a single i.v. infusion over 30 minutes (up to 60 minutes for doses greater than 2,700 mg), followed by collection of safety, tolerability, and PK data over 16 weeks. Participants will be discharged on Day 4 and will return for an outpatient study visit on Day 5 (may be phone or clinic visit), and to the study site on Days 7, 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, 98, and 112.
