Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of HL-003 in Healthy Subjects

The single-dose escalation clinical trial of HL-003 tablets is designed as a dose-escalation, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study.

The multiple-dose clinical trial of HL-003 tablets is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study. The specific dosage, dosing frequency, and duration of continuous administration will be adjusted based on the results of the single-dose escalation clinical study.
