Trial outcomes

1

Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs)

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical trial participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE can, therefore, be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal (investigational) product. Any clinically significant changes in vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG) measurement, physical examination and clinical laboratory parameters will be recorded as AE.

Time frame
Up to final follow-up (SAD Part: up to 8 days: MAD Part: up to 14 days)

Secondary outcomes

1

SAD Part: Area under the concentration-time curve from time zero until the last observed concentration (AUC0-t) of H021

AUC0-t is an area under the concentration-time curve from time zero (pre-dose) to time of last observed concentration.

Time frame
pre-dose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours post-dose
2

SAD Part: Area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-infinity) of H021

AUC0-infinity is an area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (extrapolated).

Time frame
pre-dose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours post-dose
3

SAD Part: Maximal observed concentration (Cmax) of H021

Cmax is a measure of the maximum amount of drug in the plasma after the dose was given.

Time frame
pre-dose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours post-dose
4

SAD Part: Time to Reach Cmax (Tmax) of H021

Tmax is a measure of the time to reach the maximum concentration in the plasma after the dose was given.

Time frame
pre-dose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours post-dose

Other outcomes

1

MAD Part: Change From Baseline in Micro-RNA-124 (miR-124) Expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs)

Change from baseline in miR-124 expression in PBMCs will be assessed.

Time frame
Day 1 at predose, and at 12 hours, on Day 5 at predose, and on Day 7 at predose, and at 12 hours post-last dose
2

MAD Part: Change From Baseline in Interleukin (IL)-6, Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α), IL-17A, and Interferon Gamma (IFN-γ) in Blood Serum

Change from baseline in IL-6, TNF-α, IL-17A, and IFN-γ in blood serum will be assessed.

Time frame
Day 1 at predose, and at 12 hours, on Day 5 at predose, and on Day 7 at predose, and at 12 hours post-last dose
