History or presence of a significant medical disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, increases the risk of the study drug or may confound the interpretation of study measures, as confirmed by screening laboratory results. 2. Clinically significant abnormal findings on physical examination, vital signs, or Electrocardiogram (ECG). Defined as having a QTc (Fridericia) interval > 470 msec or any other clinically significant abnormalities at screening, check-in, or prior to administration of ALA-1000. 3. Pregnant or lactating. 4. History of suicidal behavior in the past 1 year or current suicidal ideation as per investigator judgement. 5. Currently meets Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) criteria for substance use disorder, moderate or severe for any substance other than opioids, caffeine, or nicotine. 6. Currently meets criteria for any unstable psychiatric disorder, including schizophrenia, schizoaffective, bipolar disorder (depression and stable bipolar disorder are not excluded if condition has been stable for at least 60 days). 7. Current diagnosis of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) as confirmed by Western Blot and viral load laboratory results. 8. Acute active Hepatitis B or C as evidenced by positive serology and Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/ Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >2 upper limit of normal (ULN) 9. History of blood donation in excess of 450 mL within 30 days prior to Visit 1. 10. Received treatment with an investigational drug or device within 90 days prior to Visit 1. 11. Use of strong inhibitors or inducers of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) within 30 days prior to Visit 1. 12. Use of any new medication, vitamins, or supplements within 7 days prior to Visit. 13. Hypersensitivity or allergy to buprenorphine or other opioids which, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise subject safety. |

Primary | Incidence of AEs will be summarized by treatment overall, by severity, and by relationship to ALA-1000. Serious AEs and AEs leading to discontinuation of study drug will also be presented. | Baseline (prior to dosing) through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | ||
Primary | Change of vital signs will be assessed in subjects receiving ALA-1000. | Vital signs including blood pressure, pulse rate, respiration rate, pulse oximetry and temperature. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure will be assessed while supine and standing. Pulse oximetry will be monitored continuously for 24 hours post injection to assess for any signs/symptoms of respiratory depression. | Baseline (prior to dosing) through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | |
Primary | Chang of clinical laboratory assessments (biochemistry, hematology and urinalysis) will be assessed in subjects receiving ALA-1000. | Samples will be collected for laboratory tests, including hematology, serum chemistry, urinalysis, serum/urine pregnancy test (conducted for females of childbearing potential only), and urine drug screen, to assess the safety of subjects. | Baseline (prior to dosing) through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | |
Primary | Change of ECG parameter of QTcF interval will be assessed in subjects receiving ALA-1000 | Baseline (prior to dosing) through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | ||
Primary | A standard physical examination will be performed to monitor the safety in subjects receiving ALA-1000 | The examination will include assessment of skin, head, ears, eyes, nose, throat, neck, thyroid, lungs, heart, cardiovascular, abdomen, lymph nodes, and musculoskeletal system/extremities. | Baseline (prior to dosing) to the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | |
Primary | Injection site assessment will be conducted to monitor the safety in subjects receiving ALA-1000 | Injection site assessment including pain, tenderness, induration, erythema/redness, and swelling. If an infection develops at the injection site, the subject will be withdrawn from the study. | From the end of ALA-1000 injection through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | |
Primary | Concomitant medications will be reviewed and documented to monitor the safety in subjects receiving ALA-1000 | The medication name, dose, frequency, date, and indication for use must be recorded | Prior to dosing through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | |
Primary | AUC (area under the plasma concentration-time curve) for subjects receive ALA-1000 injection | Prior to ALA-1000 injection through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | ||
Primary | Cmax (maximum observed plasma concentration) for subjects receive ALA-1000 injection | Prior to ALA-1000 injection through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | ||
Primary | Tmax (time to maximum concentration) for subjects receive ALA-1000 injection | Prior to ALA-1000 injection through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | ||
Primary | t1/2 (time to half plasma concentration) for subjects receive ALA-1000 injection | Prior to ALA-1000 injection through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | ||
Secondary | Change of opioid withdrawal symptoms will be assessed using Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale (COWS) for subjects receive ALA-1000 injection | Opioid withdrawal symptoms will be measured using COWS scores. Score: 5- 1 2 = mild; 1 3-24 = moderate; 25-36 = moderately severe; more than 36 = severe withdrawal | Baseline (prior to dosing) through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | |
Secondary | Change of suicidal ideation will be assessed using Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) for subjects receive ALA-1000 injection | Suicidal ideation scores will be reported using C-SSRS. The suicidal ideation scale identifies behaviors and thoughts that are associated with an increased risk of suicidal actions in the future. Score: 5- 1 2 = mild; 1 3-24 = moderate; 25-36 = moderately severe; more than 36 = severe suicidal ideation. | Screening through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination | |
Secondary | Assessment of the abstinence by urine toxicology results negative for opioids in subjects received ALA-1000 injection. | Screening through the End of Study (Day175), or Early termination |
