About this trial

GLU001 is a first-in-human clinical trial to assess the safety and tolerability of VTP-1000 for adults with celiac disease. This trial will assess VTP-1000 at various dose levels compared to placebo in a single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) format. Participants will be followed for a short period of time to assess the impact of VTP-1000 on their immune system (Adverse events, reactions in the blood, and physical exam differences). Participants enrolled in the MAD portion of the trial will undergo a gluten challenge to assess the impact exposure to gluten has on participants after administration of VTP-1000.
