About this trial

This Phase 1 trial will explore the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single and multiple ascending doses of INI-822 in healthy volunteers in Parts A, B, and D and in participants with a history of NASH or presumed NASH in Part C.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Females must not be pregnant or lactating, and must use acceptable, highly effective double contraception (see Section 7.3.1) from Screening until 90 days after their last dose of IP or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer. Females with same-sex partners (abstinent from penile-vaginal intercourse) or who are abstinent from heterosexual intercourse are not required to use contraception when this is their preferred and usual lifestyle. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative pregnancy test at Screening and Day -1. Women not of childbearing potential must be postmenopausal for ≥ 12 months (postmenopausal status is to be confirmed through testing of follicle stimulating hormone [FSH] levels ≥ 40 IU/L at Screening for amenorrhoeic female participants). Females must not donate ova from the first dose of IP until at least 90 days after the last dose of IP or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer.

Males must be surgically sterile (> 30 days since vasectomy [documented evidence] with no viable sperm), or, if engaged in sexual relations with a WOCBP, they must use a condom and either his partner must be surgically sterile (e.g., tubal occlusion, hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral oophorectomy), or an acceptable, highly effective contraceptive method (see Section 7.3.1) must be used from Day -1 until study completion. Males with same-sex partners (abstinent from penile-vaginal intercourse) or abstinent from heterosexual intercourse are not required to use contraception when this is their preferred and usual lifestyle. males must not donate sperm from the first dose of IP until at least 90 days after the last dose of IP or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer.

Able and willing to attend the necessary visits to the study site.

Able and willing to provide written informed consent after the nature of the study has been explained and prior to the commencement of any study procedures.

Disqualifiers

An underlying physical or psychological medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would make it unlikely for the participant to comply with the protocol or complete the study per protocol.

Blood donation or significant blood loss (> 500 mL) within 60 days prior to the first administration of IP.

Plasma donation within 7 days prior to the first administration of IP.

Fever (body temperature > 37.7°C) or symptomatic viral or bacterial infection within 2 weeks prior to Day 1.
