Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Immunogenicity of AK006 in Healthy Subjects and Subjects With Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a Phase 1, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity (immune response), and explore the clinical activity of single and multiple ascending doses of AK006 when administered intravenously (IV) to healthy participants and participants with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) [Screening to Day 113 (Part A) and Screening to Day 141 (Part B and C)]
AEs, serious AEs, and treatment emergent AEs (AE that starts after start of investigational product)
- Incidence of AEs of special interest [Day 1 to Day 113 (Part A) and Day 1 to Day 141 (Part B and C)]
Infusion-related reactions, anaphylaxis, and opportunistic infections
- AEs leading to discontinuation [Day 1 to Day 113 (Part A) and Screening to Day 141 (Part B and C)]
AEs
- Incidence of clinically significant abnormal laboratory values, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and vital signs [Day 1 to Day 113 (Part A) and Day 1 to Day 141 (Part B and C)]
Incidence of clinically significant abnormal laboratory values, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and vital signs
Secondary Outcome Measures
- AK006 serum concentration at end of infusion [Day 1 (Part A) and Day 29 (Part B)]
AK006 Serum concentration (ng/mL) at end of infusion
- AK006 area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 to the time of last quantifiable concentration (AUC[0-last]) [Day 1 to Day 113 (Part A) and Day 29 to Day 141 (Part B)]
AK006 AUC(0-last) (ng x h/mL)
- AK006 AUC from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC[0-inf]) [Day 1 to Day 113 (Part A)]
AK006 AUC(0-inf) (ng x h/mL)
- Total systemic clearance of AK006 after intravenous dose (CL) [Day 1 to Day 113 (Part A) and Day 1 to Day 141 (Part B)]
AK006 CL (L/h/kg)
- Systemic steady-state volume of distribution (Vss) of AK006 [Day 1 to Day 113 (Part A) and Day 1 to Day 141 (Part B)]
AK006 Vss (mg/L)
- AK006 Terminal elimination phase half-life (t1/2) [Day 1 to Day 113 (Part A) and Day 1 to Day 141 (Part B)]
AK006 t1/2 (hours)
- Predose AK006 serum concentration (Ctrough, before the next dose) [Part B] [Day 29 (pre-dose)]
AK006 Ctrough (ng/mL)
- AK006 AUC over the dosing time interval (time 0 to 28 days) (AUC[tau]) (Part B) [Day 1 to Day 28 with each dosing interval]
AK006 AUC(tau) (ng x h/mL)
- AK006 Anti-drug Antibodies (ADAs) [Day 1 to Day Day 113 (Part A) and Day 1 to Day 141 (Part B and C)]
Presence and the titer of AK006-ADAs
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria:
To be included in the study, the participant must:

-
Have a diagnosis of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) for at least 6 months (Part C only)
-
Be on a stable dose of a single 2nd or later generation H1-antihistamines for the treatment of CSU, between 1× and 4× the licensed dose and frequency, by Day -14 of the Screening Period and must be willing to remain on the same stable dose throughout the study (Part C only)
