Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Adverse events and changes in laboratory parameters and vital signs as measures of safety and tolerability of single escalating doses of CR8020 [ Time Frame: From baseline to 98 days post-dose ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Assessment of pharmacokinetics of single escalating doses of CR8020 [ Time Frame: From baseline to 98 days post-dose ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Pharmacokinetic parameters include area under the serum concentration-time curve from zero to the time of the last measurable concentration (AUC0-t), area under the serum concentration-time curve from zero to infinity (AUC0-inf), maximum concentration (Cmax), time of Cmax (tmax), systemic clearance (CL), terminal elimination half life (t1/2), etc.

  • Assessment of antibodies binding to CR8020 as a measure of immunogenicity of single escalating doses of CR8020 [ Time Frame: From baseline to 98 days post-dose ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Detailed Description:

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose escalation study will enroll up to 5 cohorts of healthy subjects. Eight subjects will be enrolled in each cohort and will receive a single 2-hour intravenous infusion of CR8020 (6 subjects) or placebo (2 subjects) on Day 1. Subjects will be dosed in pairs of two. Once all subjects in a cohort have completed Study Day 8, the preliminary safety data will be reviewed. Provided that no safety issues are identified, dose escalation to the subsequent cohort may be permitted.
