Key information

About this study

The clinical study described in this protocol is a Phase 1, single-center study evaluating safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of ADX-324.

The study consists of 2 parts:

  • Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, single ascending dose (SAD) in HV with up to 6 dose cohorts. For SAD cohorts and planned dosing; and,
  • Expansion cohort in participants with Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) at selected dose from Part A and will be open label.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

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