Overview

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of SIM0278 in healthy subjects. The study will be conducted in 2 parts. Part 1 is single ascending dose study. Part 2 is multiple ascending dose study.

Description

The study will assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics(PK) after a single or multiple administration of SIM0278 or placebo via subcutaneous injection in healthy subjects (male or female) where PK, pharmacodynamics (PD) and biomarkers will be assessed. Approximately 68 subjects (up to 84) will be enrolled in the whole study. The ratio of active drug to placebo in each dose level will be 3:1. In part1, approximately 44 subjects (up to 52) will be enrolled for the single dose escalation. Six dose levels are planned in part 1. In part2, approximately 24 (up to 32) subjects will be enrolled for the multiple dose escalation. Three dose levels are planned in part 2.

  5. A male subject must agree to use contraception as detailed in this protocol from

    screening through at least 90 days after the last dose of study drug. Sperm donation is also restricted during the time-frame that males must practice highly effective method of contraception.

  3. Chronic or active infection(s) requiring treatment with intravenous anti-infectives within 4 weeks prior to the dose of study drug, or oral anti-infectives within 2 weeks prior to Day 1, or positive test for novel coronavirus antigen or nucleic acid within 4 weeks prior to first dose
  4. Evidence or history of malignancy other than a successfully treated non-metastatic cutaneous squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma.
  5. History of chronic or active hepatitis, or current positive result, including hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection, as evidenced by a positive test for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis C virus antibody (HCV Ab).
  6. History of tuberculosis (TB), or active or latent TB on the basis of positive medical history.
  7. History of or positive screening test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; any genetic, congenital, or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or any chronic recurring infections (including mucocutaneous candidiasis).
  8. Systolic blood pressure (BP) ≥ 140 mmHg or ≤ 90 mmHg, or diastolic BP≥ 90 mmHg or ≤50 mm Hg, or HR > 100 bpm, at Screening or baseline,and abnormal clinically significant should be judged by the investigator
  9. Subjects with ANY of the following abnormalities in clinical laboratory tests at
    screening
    • Neutrophil or lymphocyte counts below the normal range; Eosinophil count above the normal range.
    • Estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation (CKD-EPI) calculation ≤90 mL/min/1.73 m2 at screening.
    • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)、Alanine transaminase (ALT) >1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
    • Total bilirubin >1.2 x ULN
    • Other clinically significant abnormalities of laboratory assessments, as judged by the Investigator and/or sponsor Medical Monitor, that could affect the safety of the subject, or the interpretation of the data from the study.
  10. 12-lead ECG demonstrating QTcF≥450 msec(male)or QTcF≥470 msec(female) at Screening.

    Subject who have II or III degree atrioventricular block or other clinically significant electrocardiogram abnormalitieshas, in the opinion of the investigator, are unsuitable subjects in the study.

  12. Treatment with biologic agents (such as monoclonal antibodies including marketed drugs) within 12 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to Day 1.
  13. Prior administration of any IL-2 based product.
  14. Exposure to immune-modulating medications (including topical or systemic use of corticosteroids) within 4 weeks prior to Day 1.
  15. Receipt of any investigational product within 3 months or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to Day 1.
  16. Will have live vaccine or attenuated live vaccine shots within the 12 weeks prior to Day 1, or planning to receive these vaccines at any time during study period or within 8 weeks after last dose.
