Chinese Healthy Volunteer Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-blind, Third-party Open, Placebo-controlled Study To Evaluate The Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics And Food Effect After Single and Multiple Oral Doses of ARTS-011 In Chinese Health Subjects
This single- and multiple-ascending dose study is a Phase 1, first in human study of ARTS-011. The goal of the study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and food effect of ARTS-011 after single and multiple oral doses of ARTS-011 in Chinese healthy volunteers.
ARTS-011 is an oral potent Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitor with a good selectivity profile over other human kinase. TYK2 is required for signal transduction and cellular functions downstream of interferons (IFN), IL-23, and IL-12 which are involved in the initiation and pathogenesis of psoriatic diseases. ARTS-011 is being developed for treatment of moderate-severe psoriasis and other autoimmune diseases. ;
