A Multi-center, Phase 1b, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Si-544 in Adults With Atopic Dermatitis
This is a multi-center, Phase 1b, double-blind, placebo-controlled, SAD and MAD, first-in-human study in subjects with mild to severe AD receiving si-544. The study consists of 2 parts, an SAD and an MAD part. In both parts, subjects will be treated in cohorts and will be randomized within each cohort to treatment with si-544 or placebo. Initially, 2 sentinel subjects will be treated (randomized to placebo or si-544) in each cohort.
∙ SAD and MAD part
• Subject has the capacity for consenting, was informed about the nature, the scope, and the relevance of the clinical study, voluntarily agrees in participation and in the study provisions, and duly signed the informed consent form approved by the ethics committee before any study-related procedure.
• Men and women aged ≥18 to 75 years
• Willing and able to adhere to the protocol requirements
• {deleted}
• Women of childbearing potential must:
‣ have a negative pregnancy test (blood) at Screening.
⁃ agree to use, and be able to comply with, highly effective measures of contraceptive control (failure rate less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly) without interruption, from Screening through 30 days after the last IMP treatment.
• Reliable methods for this study are:
• i. combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal, transdermal) ii. progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable, implantable) iii. intrauterine device iv. intrauterine hormone-releasing system v. bilateral tubal occlusion vi. vasectomized sexual partner (provided that the partner is the sole sexual partner of the woman of childbearing potential and has received medical assessment of the surgical success) vii. sexual abstinence (only if defined as refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the entire period of risk associated with the study treatment) Abstinence is only accepted as true abstinence: when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject (periodic abstinence \[eg, calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods and withdrawal\] is not an acceptable method of contraception).
• c. agree to abstain from breast feeding during the study participation and for 90 days after the last IMP treatment.
• Postmenopausal (no menses for at least 1 year without alternative medical cause) or surgically sterile women (tubal ligation, hysterectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy) may be enrolled.
• Men must practice true abstinence or agree to use a condom during sexual contact with a pregnant woman or a woman of childbearing potential for at least 90 days after the last IMP treatment, even after undergoing a successful vasectomy.
• SAD part only
• Clinical diagnosis of mild to severe AD
• MAD part only
• Clinical diagnosis of mild to severe AD with a SCORAD ≥15
