Inclusion Criteria: 1. Male or female healthy volunteer. 2. Aged 18-45 years at time of consent. 3. A body mass index (BMI; Quetelet index) in the range 18.0-30.9. 4. Ability to understand the nature of the trial and any hazards of participating in it. Ability to communicate satisfactorily with the investigator and to participate in, and comply with the requirements of, the entire trial. 5. Willingness to give written consent to participate after reading and understanding the information and consent form, and after having the opportunity to discuss the trial with the investigator or his delegate. 6. Agree to use effective contraception as described in Section 11. 7. Agree not to donate blood or blood products during the study and for up to 3 months after the administration of the trial medication. 8. Willingness to give written consent to have data entered into The Overvolunteering Prevention System (TOPS). Exclusion Criteria: 1. Woman who is pregnant or lactating, or pre-menopausal woman who is sexually active and not using a reliable method of contraception (see Section 11). 2. Of East Asian descent including, but not limited to, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Mongolian, or Vietnamese. 3. Smoker, or has smoked cigarettes or other tobacco or nicotine products in the last 12 months. 4. Clinically relevant abnormal history, physical findings, ECG, or laboratory values at the pre-trial screening assessment that could interfere with the objectives of the trial or the safety of the volunteer. 5. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alkaline phosphatase (AP) >ULN at the screening visit. A repeat is allowed on one occasion for determination of eligibility. 6. Presence of acute or chronic illness or history of chronic illness sufficient to invalidate the volunteer's participation in the trial or make it unnecessarily hazardous. 7. History or presence of any disease or condition known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of drugs including gastrointestinal disorder or of oesophageal, gastric, biliary or intestinal surgery (excluding herniotomy and appendectomy). 8. Use of anticholinergic or other drugs known to affect gastrointestinal motility during the 7 days before the first dose of trial medication. 9. Impaired endocrine, thyroid, hepatic, respiratory or renal function, diabetes mellitus, coronary heart disease, or history of any psychotic mental illness. 10. Surgery (eg stomach bypass) or medical condition that might affect absorption of medicines. 11. Presence or history of severe adverse reaction to any drug or a history of sensitivity to aramchol, cholic acid, bile acid sequestrants, or any excipients in the tablets. 12. Use of a prescription medicine (except oral contraceptives in females), or any other medicine or herbal remedy (including St John's wort) known to interfere with enzymes in the liver, during the 28 days before the first dose of trial medication; or use of any other over-the-counter medicine, with the exception of acetaminophen (paracetamol), during the 7 days before the first dose of trial medication. 13. Receipt of an investigational product (including prescription medicines) as part of another clinical trial within the 3 months before first admission to this study; in the follow-up period of another clinical trial at the time of screening for this study. 14. Presence or history of drug or alcohol abuse, or intake of more than 14 units of alcohol weekly. 15. Blood pressure and heart rate in supine position at the screening examination outside the ranges: blood pressure 100-140 mm Hg systolic, 50-90 mm Hg diastolic; heart rate 45_90 beats/min, unless judged not clinically significant. Borderline values (ie values that are within 5 mm Hg for blood pressure or 5 beats/min for heart rate) will be repeated. Subjects can be included if the repeat value is within range or still borderline, but deemed not clinically significant by the investigator. 16. Possibility that the volunteer will not cooperate with the requirements of the protocol. 17. Evidence of drug abuse on urine testing. 18. Positive test for hepatitis B, hepatitis C or HIV. 19. Loss of more than 400 mL blood during the 3 months before the trial, eg as a blood donor. 20. Objection by GP to volunteer entering trial. |
