Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
SMP-100 is a novel serotonin receptor 3 (5-HT3) partial agonist which has been designed to be a safe and effective therapy for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients .
This will be a single center, Phase 1, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, sequential single ascending dose (SAD)/ multiple ascending dose (MAD) study to assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of SMP-100 in healthy adult male and female subjects. The study will be divided into two parts:
Part A: SAD cohorts Part A will consist of 6 cohorts (1 cohort per dose level) of 8 subjects (6 subjects receiving the study drug and 2 receiving matching placebo), for a total of 48 subjects. Each subject will participate in only one cohort. Efforts will be made to randomize at least 3 subjects of each gender in each cohort.
Part B: MAD cohorts Part B will consist of 3 cohorts (1 cohort per dose level) of 8 subjects. Six subjects will receive study drug and 2 subjects will receive matching placebo, daily for 14 consecutive days, for a total of 24 subjects (18 study drug; 6 placebo). Each study subject will participate in only one cohort. Efforts will be made to randomize at least 3 subjects of each gender in each cohort.
For both Part A and Part B, subjects who withdraw or are withdrawn from the study after dosing, for reasons other than safety and tolerability, may be replaced after consultation between the Safety Review Committee (SRC) members. The total number of subjects dosed (including potential replacement subjects) will remain within a maximum of 10 subjects per cohort.
