Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled first-in-human study in which the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of orally administered HPN-01 will be evaluated in healthy subjects

Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
This study aims to obtain safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data when HPN-01 is orally administered as single doses and as multiple doses to healthy subjects.
The study will be conducted in 2 parts: a single ascending dose (SAD) phase (Part 1) and a multiple ascending dose (MAD) phase (Part 2). One cohort of Part 1 will receive HPN-01 after a standard high fat/high calorie breakfast (the fed condition) to investigate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of HPN-01.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: HPN-01 Part 1: Including 6 dose cohorts (25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, 150 mg, 200 mg and 300 mg). Each dose cohort will receive a single dose of HPN-01. One cohort of Part 1 will receive HPN-01 after a standard high fat/high calorie breakfast (the fed condition) to investigate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of HPN-01. Part 2: Including 3 dose cohorts (50 mg, 100 mg and 200 mg). Each dose cohort will receive HPN-01 once daily for a consecutive 14 days. |
Drug: HPN-01
25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, 150 mg, 200 mg and 300 mg HPN-01 capsules

| Placebo Comparator: Placebo Part 1: Including 6 dose cohorts (25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, 150 mg, 200 mg and 300 mg). Each dose cohort will receive a single dose of HPN-01 placebo. Part 2: Including 3 dose cohorts (50 mg, 100 mg and 200 mg). Each dose cohort will receive HPN-01 placebo once daily for a consecutive 14 days. |
Drug: Placebo
