A Study Investigating the Safety, Absorption and Elimination of GLPG3312, a New Drug in the Treatment of Inflammatory Diseases

Inclusion criteria

• Male or female between 18 to 55 years of age (extremes included), on the date of signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF). Female should be of non-childbearing potential defined as permanently surgically sterile (bilateral oophorectomy, i.e. surgical removal of ovaries, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy, i.e. surgical removal of uterus), or with no menses for 12 or more months without an alternative medical cause AND a folliclestimulating hormone (FSH) level >35 IU/L. These subjects must also have a negative pregnancy test. For surgical sterilization, documented confirmation will be requested.
• A body mass index (BMI) between 18 to 30 kg/m2, inclusive.
• Subject must be able and willing to comply with restrictions on prior medication.
• Male subjects with female partners of childbearing potential must be willing to comply with contraceptive methods.
• Judged to be in good health by the investigator based upon the results of a medical history, physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead ECG, and fasting clinical laboratory safety tests. Clinical laboratory safety test results must be within the reference ranges or test results that are outside the reference ranges need to be considered nonclinically significant in the opinion of the investigator. At minimum hemoglobin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), creatinine, creatine kinase-myoglobin (CK-MB), High Sensitivity Troponin I, Troponin T and alkaline phosphatase must be within the normal range, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) must be no greater than 1.5x upper limit of normal range (ULN).

Exclusion criteria

• Known hypersensitivity to IMP ingredients or history of a significant allergic reaction to IMP ingredients as determined by the investigator.
• Positive serology for HBsAg, or hepatitis C virus (HCV), or history of hepatitis from any cause with the exception of hepatitis A that was resolved at least 3 months prior to first dosing of the IMP.
• History of, or a current immunosuppressive condition (e.g. HIV infection).
• Having any illness (e.g. active allergy, fever, hypersensitivity reactions) judged by the investigator as clinically significant, in the 3 months prior to first dosing of the IMP.
• Any history, or current sign or symptom of a cardiovascular, renal, or metabolic bone disease or disease of bone remodelling (with the exception of uncomplicated accidental bone fractures that recovered uncompromised at least 1 year ago), or any history of endocrine disease, including an abnormal laboratory result for prespecified clinical laboratory safety parameters related to these conditions.
• Presence or sequelae of gastrointestinal, liver, kidney (creatinine clearance ≤80 mL/min/1.73m2, using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula: if calculated result is ≤80 mL/min/1.73m2, a 24-hours urine collection can be done), or other conditions known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of drugs.
• History of malignancy within the past 5 years prior to screening with the exception of excised and curatively treated non-metastatic cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix which is considered cured with minimal risk of recurrence.
• Significant blood loss (including blood donation >450 mL), or transfusion of any blood product within 12 weeks prior to screening.
• Treatment with any medication (including over-the-counter and/or prescription medication, dietary supplements, nutraceuticals, vitamins and/or herbal supplements) except occasional paracetamol (maximum dose of 2 g/day and a maximum of 10 g/ 2 weeks) in the last 2 weeks or 5 half-lives of the drug, whichever is longer, prior to the first dosing of the IMP.
• Active drug abuse or alcohol abuse (alcohol abuse defined as regular weekly intake of more than 14 units) within 2 years prior to first IMP administration.
• Active smoker and/or has used nicotine or nicotine-containing products within the past 6 months before the first IMP administration.
• Regular consumption of a large quantity of caffeinated coffee, tea (> 6 cups per day) or equivalent.
• Concurrent participation or participation in a drug, drug/device or biologic investigational research study within 12 weeks or 5 half-lives of the IMP, whichever is longer, prior to first dosing of the investigational medicinal product (IMP).
• Any clinical laboratory test result outside of the reference ranges considered by the investigator as clinically significant. Hemoglobin, ALT, creatinine, CK-MB, High Sensitivity Troponin I, Troponin T, or alkaline phosphatase outside normal range, AST result greater than 1.5x ULN.
• History or presence of clinically significant abnormalities detected on 12-lead ECG of either rhythm or conduction (e.g. known long QT syndrome). A first-degree atrioventricular block will not be considered as a significant abnormality. QTcF = QT x (1000/RR)1/3 (QTcF) >450 ms (male), >460 ms (female) (mean values per parameter will be considered) detected on the 12-lead ECG.
