A Bridging Study of FB2001 in Healthy Subjects

Coronaviruses belong to the genus of coronavirus of the family coronaviruses. The viruses of the coronavirus genus are positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses with envelopes, which are approximately 80-160 nm in diameter. Their genetic material is the largest among all RNA viruses and can infect both humans and animals. Coronaviruses can cause respiratory, intestinal, hepatic, and nervous system diseases of different severities. A total of 7 coronaviruses have been found, in which HCoV-229E, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-NL63 and HCoV-HKU1 mainly lead to mild and self-limiting upper respiratory tract infections in infected humans, such as common cold; two new types of β-coronaviruses have emerged in the past 12 years, namely severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS-CoV), and these two viruses can cause severe human diseases.

In the first human clinical trial conducted in the United States, single and multiple dosing of FB2001 in multiple dose groups were partially completed，and FB2001 demonstrated good safety and tolerability. The bridge study of FB2001 will be conducted in China to evaluated the safety and PK of FB2001 in healthy Chinese population. This study is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, ascending dose to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of FB2001 for injection afer a single and multiple dose administrations in healthy subjects. A total of 40 healthy subjects are planned to be enrolled. Each group will include 8 subjects.

Exclusion criteria

• HIV antibody positive;
• HBsAg positive;
• HCV antibody positive;
• Syphilis spirochetes antibody positive;
• History of tuberculosis or lung disease as reported by subject;
• Subject has severe cardiovascular disease, neurological disease, hematological disease, infectious disease, mental disorder, liver disease, gastrointestinal disease, endocrine disease, immune disease or kidney disease, or has a history of the above diseases, or other symptoms known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of the medicine, or other conditions that the investigator believes will increase the risk of the subject and might interfere with the study conduct and results interpretations;
• Female subjects who are pregnant, lactating or have pregnancy plans and cannot contracept as required;
• Subjects who participated in any other clinical study within 3 months prior to screening;
• Subjects with known allergic reactions to the study drug or its excipients;
• Subjects donated or lost ≥ 400 mL 3 months prior to the administration of study drugs; or subjects donated (including aphersis donation) or lost ≥ 200 mL 1 month prior to the administration;
• Subjects who have taken any drug that inhibits or induces hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes (e.g., inducers: barbiturate, carbamazepine, phenytoin, glucocorticoid, omeprazole; inhibitors: antidepressants like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), cimetidine, diltiazem macrolides, nitroimidazoles, sedative-hypnotic drugs, verapamil, fluoroquinolones, antihistamines) within 30 days prior to administration; or subjects who have taken any prescription, over-the-counter, and herbal medications other than those listed above within 14 days prior to administration;
• Alcoholics or regular drinkers within 3 months, i.e., those who comsume more than 14 units of alcohol per week (1 unit = 360 mL of beer or 45 mL of liquor with 40% ABV or 150 mL of wine), or those who have a positive result in breath alcohol test;
• Use of any medication, including prescription, over-the-counter, vitatmins, herbal and/or mineral supplements, dietary supplements (and/or grape fruit juice) within 14 days prior to the first administration, in the Investigator's judgment, which may influence study results or subjects' safety;
• Any other clinical condition that, in the inverstigator's judgement, would potentially compromise study compliance or the abilityti evaluate safety and efficacy.
