Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of different doses and dosing regimens of BG00012 administered with and without ASA compared to placebo
Detailed Description
Preclinical safety margins for BG00012 allow for a maximum daily dose of 720 mg daily. The study will use a variety of clinical scales, including a flushing scale derived from a validated questionnaire \[Norquist 2007\], to better understand the safety and tolerability of several doses and dosing regimens of BG00012 up to a total daily dose of 720 mg. The etiology of BG00012-induced flushing will be assessed by collecting relevant biomarker data and the impact of ASA on flushing will be evaluated. Assessments relating to GI symptoms will also be performed.

Primary Outcomes
• incidence of treatment emergent AEs
Time Frame: 11 days
• incidence of serious AEs (SAEs)
Time Frame: 11 days
