Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Efficacy is not being assessed in this study. The primary endpoints are the<br /><br>safe and well tolerated administration of the study medication. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>PK of AST-004 in plasma and CSF will be important in determining the dose of<br /><br>the study medication to be used in Phase 2 trials and to be used in any future<br /><br>Phase 1 studies. PK of AST-004 as well as identification of any major<br /><br>metabolites in urine and plasma will be obtained.<br /><br><br /><br>Mechanistic and pharmacodynamic biomarkers of AST-004 will also be assessed in<br /><br>the plasma and CSF including changes in cytokine levels.<br /><br></p><br>
