Brief Summary

1QG2 is a Phase 1 study aiming to assess the safety and tolerability of ascending single/multiple oral doses (SAD \& MAD) in healthy young subjects, the preliminary food interaction and the effect of QGC001 on blood pressure and heart rate, but also to determine pharmacokinetic preliminary profiles of QGC001 and its metabolite EC33 and pharmacodynamic preliminary profiles of QGC001 and its metabolite EC33 especially effects on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone and copeptin systems.
