简要总结
This is a Phase 1 study, first-in-human (FIH), open label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of PMC-403 and determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).
详细描述
In this study, Single Ascending Dose (SAD) and Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) will be carried out in a sequential manner.
- PART 1- SAD
The SAD part of the study will be conducted in a step-wise manner for a total of 4 dose levels (0.7 mg, 2 mg, 3 mg, 4 mg). To each dose group, 3 subjects at minimum or 6 subjects at maximum will be recruited. In the SAD part, dose escalation will be performed up to 4 mg/eye (50 uL/eye) until the MTD is identified.
In the SAD part, a maximum of 24 participants are to be enrolled.
