Study Description
Brief Summary
A single and multiple ascending dose study of ANA001 in healthy adults to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics

|
Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
This is a Phase 1, single center, randomized, double blind, single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) study to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of ANA001 in healthy adult subjects. In the single ascending dose portion of the study, subjects in 3 cohorts of 10 subjects each will be randomized to receive a single daily oral dose of ANA001 or matching placebo. In the multiple ascending dose portion of the study, subjects in 3 cohorts of 12 subjects each will be randomized to receive twice or thrice daily oral dose of ANA001 or matching placebo.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: ANA001 For the single ascending dose (SAD) portion of the study, subjects will receive their assigned treatment as a single oral dose (1000 mg, 2000 mg, or 3000 mg of ANA001) with a standardized light meal. Each capsule is 250 mg. For the multiple ascending dose (MAD) portion of the study, subjects will receive their assigned treatment twice daily (BID) or thrice daily (TID) (total daily dose is to be determined following the completion of the SAD portion of the study and will not exceed 2000 mg ANA001) with a standardized light meal for 7 consecutive days. Each capsule is 250 mg. |
Drug: Niclosamide
Niclosamide is an antihelmintic with in-vitro antiviral activity
Other Names:
|
| Placebo Comparator: Matching Placebo For the single ascending dose (SAD) portion of the study, subjects will receive their assigned matching placebo (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) as a single dose (4, 8, or 12 capsules) with a standardized light meal. For the multiple ascending dose (MAD) portion of the study, subjects will receive their assigned matching placebo (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) dose twice daily (BID) or thrice daily (TID) with a standardized light meal. |
Drug: Placebo
Matching hydroxypropylmethylcellulose HPMC capsules with no active ingredients

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Safety and tolerability of ANA001 as measured by the incidence of treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) [Baseline to Day 7 for SAD portion; Baseline to Day 15 for MAD portion]
Incidence of treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)
- Safety and tolerability of ANA001 as measured by the incidence of study drug discontinuations due to an adverse event (AE) (MAD portion only) [Baseline to Day 15]
Incidence of study drug discontinuations due to an Adverse Event (AE)
- Safety and tolerability of ANA001 as measured by the use of concomitant medications [Baseline to Day 7 for SAD portion; Baseline to Day 15 for MAD portion]
Incidence in the use of concomitant medications
- Safety and tolerability of ANA001 as measured by the change from baseline in clinical laboratory test results [Baseline to Day 7 for SAD portion; Baseline to Day 15 for MAD portion]
Incidence of change in clinical laboratory test results (hematology, serum chemistry, urinalysis)
- Safety and tolerability of ANA001 as measured by the change from baseline in vital signs [Baseline to Day 7 for SAD portion; Baseline to Day 15 for MAD portion]
Incidence of change from baseline in vital signs (oral temperature, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure)
- Safety and tolerability of ANA001 as measured by the change in ECG parameters [Baseline to Day 1 for SAD portion; Baseline to Day 7 for MAD portion]
Incidence of change from baseline in ECG parameters (PR, QRS, QT, and QTc intervals)
- Safety and tolerability of ANA001 as measured by the change incidence of physical example findings [Baseline to Day 1 for SAD portion; Baseline to Day 7 for MAD portion]
Incidence of physical exam findings
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Pharmacokinetics (PK) of ANA001 as measured by plasma concentrations [single ascending dose (Day 1); multiple ascending dose (Day 1 to 8)]
Plasma concentrations of ANA001
