Phase 1 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of Intravenously Administered PYC-003

PHASE1RECRUITING

This is a Phase 1, First-in-Human study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and immunogenicity of PYC-003 in healthy adult participants and adult participants with confirmed PKD1 mutation-associated Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) There are 2 parts in this study, i. e. Part A and Part B.

Study details:

Part A (SAD - Healthy) will be conducted as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, SAD study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and immunogenicity of PYC-003 in healthy adult participants. The anticipated number of participants across 5 Part A (SAD - Healthy) cohorts is approximately 40 participants. On Day 1, each participant will receive the investigational product (IP; ie, PYC-003 or placebo), as a single intravenous (IV) infusion.

Part B (SAD - ADPKD) will be conducted as an open-label single ascending dose (SAD) study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and immunogenicity of PYC-003 in adult participants with confirmed PKD1 mutation-associated ADPKD. The anticipated number of participants across 5 Part B (SAD - ADPKD) cohorts is approximately 30 participants. On Day 1, each participant will receive PYC-003 as a single IV infusion.

Part C (MAD-ADPKD) will be conducted as an open label multiple ascending dose (MAD) study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and immunogenicity of PYC-003 in adult participants with confirmed PKD1 mutation-associated ADPKD. The anticipated number of participants across 4 Part C (MAD - ADPKD) cohorts is approximately 48-96 participants. Each participant will receive PYC-003 as an IV infusion either once every 6 weeks for 13 weeks or once every 8 weeks for 17 weeks.

Part D will be an extension study for participants that complete Part C where participants will continue receiving doses for up to 96 weeks.
