Trial Overview

Purpose

This is a 2-part, first-in-human dose-ranging study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of escalating doses of BCX4430 administered via intramuscular (IM) injection in healthy subjects. In part 1, subjects will receive a single dose of BCX4430; in part 2 subjects will receive BCX4430 for 7 days.

Comments

This trial is funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) of the National Institutes of Health in the US.
