Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of ARCT-810 in Healthy Adult Subjects

This is a single ascending dose study of ARCT-810 in which approximately 30 subjects are planned to be enrolled. The length of each study participant is approximately 8 weeks from screening to last study visit.

Study participants will be allocated to one of the five different study groups (also called cohorts), to test different doses of ARCT-810. There will be 6 participants in each group. Within each cohort, subjects will be randomized 2:1 to receive ARCT-810 or placebo as an IV infusion.
