Overview
This study is the first study in the RestorAATion clinical program.
The purpose of this first-in human (FIH), double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple-dose Phase 1 study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of WVE-006 compared to placebo in healthy participants following a single dose (Period 1) and multiple doses (Period 2) of WVE-006.
This information will be used to determine doses and regimes that have the potential to be pharmacologically active in patients with Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency in the RestorAATion 2 study, and the maximum safe and tolerable dose that may be given to these patients.
