Full description
Xla1 Christensenella minuta, phase I, randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind protocol, evaluating safety, tolerability and impact on the gut microbiota in healthy volunteers, overweight and obese adults. This study is designed as a FIH, Phase I, daily oral single dose, clinical trial evaluating safety, tolerability and the impact on the gut microbiota following introduction of Xla1 performed in 2 parts:
The following objectives will be addressed in the program: 1) the primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of Xla1 in Healthy adult Volunteers (HV) [part 1], and, subsequently, in overweight and Stage I obese adults [part 2]. 2) the secondary objectives comprise additional evaluation of the effects of Xla1 on subject's intestinal microbiome ecology and evaluation of the engraftment of Xla1 in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT).
