Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of ARO-MMP7 in normal healthy volunteers (NHVs) and in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The dose level and interval for each IPF participant cohort will be selected by the sponsor based on review of all available safety and PD data.

  6. PK of ARO-MMP7: Area Under the Plasma Concentration versus Time Curve from Zero to the Last Quantifiable Plasma Concentration (AUClast) [single dose phase: up to 168 hours post-dose; multiple dose phase: up to 6 hours post-dose on Days 1 and 15 or 29, 24 hours post-dose on Days 2 and 30, and (IPF only) Days 8, 22, and 36]

  8. PK of ARO-MMP7: Terminal Elimination Half-Life (t1/2) [single dose phase: up to 168 hours post-dose; multiple dose phase: up to 6 hours post-dose on Days 1 and 15 or 29, 24 hours post-dose on Days 2 and 30, and (IPF only) Days 8, 22, and 36]
