A Study of SSS68 Following a Single Subcutaneous Administration in Healthy Adult Participants

This is the first-in-human (FIH) clinical study of SSS68. Seven dose groups are planned for dose escalation in this study: 2 mg, 50 mg, 200 mg, 400 mg, 600 mg, 900 mg and 1200 mg. The study will be conducted sequentially from low dose to high dose. Participants in all dose groups will receive a single subcutaneous injection.

The study consists of a screening period (no more than 4 weeks), a single-dose administration period (Day1), and a follow-up period (Day2 to Day113), with duration of approximately 20 weeks.

• Male or female participants aged 18-45 years (inclusive) when signing the ICF.
• Male participants with body weight ≥ 50 kg, and female participants with body weight ≥ 45 kg.
• Participants whose vital signs, physical examination results, laboratory test results, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) and other test results are normal, or abnormal without clinical significance as determined by the investigator.
