Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single ascending intravenous (IV) doses of ASP2408 in non-elderly, healthy male and female subjects and to evaluate the pharmacodynamics of ASP2408.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1

Detailed Description

This is single-dose escalation study composed of 8 sequential cohorts of healthy subjects receiving increasing doses of intravenously administered ASP2408 or matching placebo. Subjects will be confined in the clinic for 8 days.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Pharmacokinetic parameter of ASP2408:AUClast [Days 1-8, 15, 22, 29, 43, 60, 90]

    Area Under the Concentration - Time curve from time 0 up to the last quantifiable concentration (AUClast)

  2. Pharmacokinetic parameter of ASP2408: AUCinf [Days 1 -8, 15, 22, 29, 43, 60, 90]

    Area Under the Concentration - Time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf)

  3. Pharmacokinetic parameter of ASP2408:Cmax [Days 1-8, 15, 22, 29, 43, 60, 90]

    Maximum concentration (Cmax)

  4. Safety assessed by adverse events, laboratory tests, immunoglobulin, 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital signs and anti-2408 antibody formulation [up to 90 days]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Composite of pharmacokinetics of ASP2408: tmax, t1/2, Vz, CLtot [Days 1-8, 15, 22, 29, 43, 60, 90]

    Time to attain Cmax (tmax), apparent terminal elimination half-life (t1/2), Terminal phase volume (Vz), Total Body Clearance (CLtot)

  2. Pharmacodynamic parameters of ASP2408: CD80 and CD86 receptor occupancy [Days 1-3, 5, 8, 15, 22, 29, 43, 60, 90]

  3. Total lymphocyte count [Days 1-3, 5, 8, 15, 22, 29, 43, 60, 90]

  4. Peripheral lymphocyte subset quantification [Days 1-3, 5, 8, 15, 22, 29, 43, 60, 90]
