About

This study is designed as a single centre, double blind, placebo controlled, randomized, SAD/FE/MAD, safety, tolerance and PK study of BMB-101 in healthy adult subjects. The study will be conducted as a 3-part study.

Full description

This study is designed as a 3-part study:

Part 1 is designed as single ascending dose (SAD) escalation study investigating 4 dose levels. Each cohort will consist of participants to be randomly assigned to receive a blinded oral dose of BMB-101 or placebo.

Part 2 is designed as a randomized, orally administered, single-dose, two-treatment (fed vs fasted), two-period, two-sequence crossover to assess the effects of a standard high-fat breakfast on PK of BMB-101.

Part 3 is designed as a multiple ascending dose (MAD) escalation study investigating up to 4 dose levels. Subjects will be randomized to receive double-blind treatment of BMB-101 or matching placebo twice daily for 7 days.
