- Lead Sponsor
- AstraZeneca
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD7760 when given as an intravenous infusion to healthy participants (Phase I) or participants with end-stage kidney disease receiving hemodialysis through a central venous catheter (Phase IIa).
- Detailed Description
In the Phase I portion of the study, participants will be randomized into one of 3 cohorts to receive one of 3 dosages of AZD7760 or placebo as a single intravenous infusion.
Study details include:
* A 28-day Screening Period.
* A Dosing Period of 3 days in which a single intravenous infusion will be given on Day 1.
* A Follow-up Period of 12 months from the time of administration of the study intervention.
In the Phase IIa portion of the study, participants will be randomized into one of 3 study groups to receive either AZD7760 or placebo as 2 intravenous infusions given 3 months apart.
Study details include:
* A 28-day Screening Period.
* A Dosing Period in which 2 intravenous infusions will be given 3 months apart (Day 1 and Day 91).

Phase I:
- Known hypersensitivity to any component of the study intervention
- Previous hypersensitivity, infusion-related reaction, or severe adverse reaction following administration of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs).
- Clinically significant bleeding disorder (eg, factor deficiency, coagulopathy, or platelet disorder), or prior history of significant bleeding or bruising following intramuscular injections or venipuncture.
- Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) or alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) above 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening. Testing may be repeated once at the investigator's discretion.
- Estimated glomerular filtration rate < 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation at screening.
- Hemoglobin or platelet count below the lower limit of normal at screening. Testing may be repeated once at the investigator's discretion.

- History of malignancy other than treated non-melanoma skin cancers or locally treated cervical cancer in the previous 5 years.
- Any laboratory value in the screening panel that, in the opinion of the investigator, is clinically significant or might confound analysis of study results. Testing may be repeated once at the investigator's discretion.
- Any clinically significant abnormalities on 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) at screening, as judged by the investigator.
- Acute (time-limited) illness, including fever ≥ 38 °C (100.4 °F), one day prior to or on day of planned dosing; participants excluded for transient acute illness may be dosed if illness resolves within the 28-day Screening Period or may be rescreened once.

- Any condition that has the potential to increase clearance of the study intervention (eg, protein loss conditions such as severe enteropathies, or plasmapheresis).
- Blood drawn in excess of a total of 450 milliliters (mL) (1 unit) for any reason within 2 months prior to screening.
- Absence of suitable veins for blood sampling and administration of study intervention.
- Any other condition that would compromise safety of the participants.

Phase IIa:
- Known hypersensitivity to any component of the study intervention.
- History of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of the study intervention as listed in dose formulation section.
- Previous hypersensitivity, infusion-related reaction, or severe adverse reaction following administration of mAbs.

- Serum albumin of < 3 g/dL at screening considered by the investigator to be due to acute condition(s). Testing may be repeated once at the investigator's discretion.
- Myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, stroke, seizure, or a thrombotic/thromboembolic event (eg, deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, but excluding vascular access thrombosis) within 90 days prior to randomization.
- Known S aureus infection within 90 days of study entry.
- Known acute viral or bacterial infection or symptoms/signs consistent with such an infection within the 21 days prior to infusion or study intervention. Mild intercurrent viral illness with a temperature of 38.1 °C (100.6 °F) or less does not require exclusion, if in the judgement of the investigator this illness will not interfere with the evaluation of the mAb.
- Participants with malignancy undergoing chemotherapy.
