ABSTRACT: AIMS:A novel necrosis inhibitor, LC28-0126, is expected to have a cellular protective effect from ischaemic reperfusion injury in acute myocardial infarction. The objective of this study was to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of LC28-0126 after a single intravenous administration in healthy male subjects. METHODS:The study was a dose-block-randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose, first-in-human trial. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive 0.3, 1, 3, 10, 25, 50, 100 or 200 mg of LC28-0126. LC28-0126 was infused for 30 min and 5 min in cohorts 1 and 2, respectively. An interim analysis to assess the tolerability and pharmacokinetics was conducted in each dose group. Blood samples were taken to determine plasma LC28-0126 concentrations from predose to 48 or 144 h postdose, and urine samples were taken from predose to 48 or 72 h postdose. RESULTS:Overall, 89 subjects were randomly assigned to the dose groups of the two cohorts. LC28-0126 was well tolerated, and no serious adverse events were reported. LC28-0126 showed rapid disposition in the distribution phase. Overall, the fraction of unchanged LC28-0126 excreted during the 48 or 72 h after administration was below 5%. The systemic exposure of LC28-0126 tends to be increased in a dose-proportional manner in the dose range of 0.3-200 mg. CONCLUSIONS:A single intravenous dose of LC28-0126 was safe and well tolerated up to 200 mg. Furthermore, LC28-0126 demonstrated a predictable pharmacokinetic profile after a single intravenous infusion of doses ranging from 0.3 to 200 mg.
