A Study of High Dose MHAA4549A in Healthy Volunteers

Overview

This Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of two, single intravenous (IV) high doses of MHAA4549A as compared to placebo when administered to healthy volunteers.

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Incidence and nature of adverse events (AEs)
    • Time Frame: Until study discontinuation/termination, up to 120 days
  • Changes in vital signs during and following MHAA4549A administration
    • Time Frame: From baseline to end of study, up to 120 days
  • Changes in ECG findings during and following MHAA4549A administration
    • Time Frame: From baseline to end of study, up to 120 days
  • Severity of AEs
    • Time Frame: Until study discontinuation/termination, up to 120 days

Secondary Measures

  • Pharmacokinetics (composite outcome measure): parameters derived from the nasal and serum concentration-time profile of MHAA4549A (area under the concentration-time curve [AUC], Cmax, tmax, clearance, Vss, half-life (t1/2), mean residence time)
    • Time Frame: Up to 120 days
