Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This 2-part study will assess the effect of formulation and food on the pharmacokinetics of Indoximod in healthy volunteers. Part 1 is a randomized single ascending dose study of indoximod salt formulation to characterize the PK profile and determine the safety and tolerability of each dose in healthy male volunteers. Part 2 is an open-label, randomized, 3-period, 3-way crossover study. Participants will receive single doses of Indoximod base or salt formulation, in the fasted or fed state.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Indoximod HCL (F2) tablets
  • Drug: Indoximod base formulation
  • Other: Placebo
  • Drug: Indoximod HCL (F2) tablets
