About this study

The trial will be performed in two parts.

  • Part 1: Group 1 (dose 1 or placebo) and Group 2 (dose 2 or placebo)
  • Part 2: Group 3 (dose 3 or placebo) and Group 4 (dose 4 or placebo)

The doses in Part 2 may be adjusted depending on the results of Part 1.

Participants will be screened within 28 days of their dose. Participants will stay in the clinic from Day -1 to Day 2 (1 day postdose) and will be dosed on Day 1. A follow up phone call will take place 2 week (±2 days) after dosing.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Body mass index of ≥18.0 and <30.0 kg/m2.
  • In good health, as judged by the investigator based on: medical history, physical examination, vital sign assessment, clinical laboratory evaluations .
  • ECG without any clinically relevant abnormal findings at both screening and baseline
  • No history of additional risk factors for torsades de pointes (for example, heart failure, hypokalaemia, family history of long QT syndrome).
  • Female subjects of childbearing potential and male subjects with a female partner of childbearing potential must be willing to use highlly effective methods of contraception.

Exclusion criteria

  • Any disorder which is not stable and could:
  • Affect the safety of the subject throughout the trial.
  • Influence the findings of the trial.
  • Impede the subject's ability to complete the trial.
  • Use of any medication known to prolong the QT/QTc interval within 3 months or 5 half-lives of the drug, whichever is longer, prior to randomisation.
  • Any medications, including St. John's wort, known to chronically alter drug absorption or elimination processes within 30 days prior to dosing.
  • Current use of combined hormone contraceptives or combined hormonal replacement therapy.
  • Subjects who have smoked (use of any type of tobacco and nicotine containing products) within the last 3 months prior to screening.
  • History of chronic alcohol or drug abuse within 12 months prior to screening.
  • Receipt of any vaccine approved for SARS-CoV-2 within 4 weeks prior to baseline and/or 2 weeks after dose.
  • Receipt of live, attenuated vaccines within 4 weeks prior to baseline.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline QTcF (ΔQTcF)

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours postdose

    Replicate electrocardiograms (ECGs) (10 ECG replicates) for the determination of ΔQTc interval will be extracted from the continuous digital 12-lead ECG recording

Secondary outcomes

  1. Placebo-corrected change from baseline QTcF (ΔΔQTcF)

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours postdose

    Replicate electrocardiograms (ECGs) (10 ECG replicates) for the determination of ΔΔQTc interval will be extracted from the continuous digital 12-lead ECG recording

  2. Change from baseline of Heart Rate (ΔHR)

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours postdose

    Replicate electrocardiograms (ECGs) (10 ECG replicates) for the determination of ΔHR interval will be extracted from the continuous digital 12-lead ECG recording

  3. Placebo-corrected, change from baseline of Heart Rate (ΔΔHR)

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours postdose

    Replicate electrocardiograms (ECGs) (10 ECG replicates) for the determination of ΔΔHR interval will be extracted from the continuous digital 12-lead ECG recording

  4. Change from baseline of Pulse Rate (ΔPR)

    Time frame: predose to 24 hourse postdose

    Measurement of PR will be performed manually from electrocardiograms (ECGs).

  5. Placebo-corrected, change from baseline of Pulse Rate (ΔΔPR)

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours postdose

    Measurement of PR will be performed manually from electrocardiograms (ECGs).

  6. Change from baseline of QRS interval (ΔQRS)

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours postdose

    Measurement of QRS will be performed manually from electrocardiograms (ECGs).

  7. Placebo-corrected, change from baseline of QRS interval (ΔΔQRS)

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours postdose

    Measurement of QRS will be performed manually from electrocardiograms (ECGs).

  8. Frequency of treatment emergent changes in T-wave morphology.

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours postdose

    Measurement of T-wave morphology will be performed manually

  9. Frequency of treatment emergent changes in U-waves presence

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours postdose

    Measurement of U-waves presence will be performed manually

  10. Categorical outliers for QTcF, HR, PR interval, and QRS duration.

    Time frame: predose to 24 hours post-dose

    Analysis perfomed for changes in categorical outlines based on treatment emergent adverse events.

  11. Number of treatment emergent adverse events

    Time frame: dosing to day 15
