About

This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo- and positive-controlled parallel study to evaluate the effect of ALXN2050 on the QT interval in healthy adult participants.

Participants randomized to the treatment arm will receive ALXN2050 in a multiple-ascending doses fashion over 3 periods (treatment sequence ABC). Participants randomized to the control arms will be further randomized to 1 of 2 treatment sequences (treatment sequence DEF or GHI) to receive placebo or active control over 3 periods.

Enrollment: 39 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 55 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers
