Study summary

This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, single-administration, escalating-dose, placebo-controlled, phase I clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of SSS40 in healthy subjects in China.

A total of 8 subcutaneous dose groups were planned, including 1mg, 3mg, 10mg, 20mg, 30mg, 45mg, 60mg, 80mg. Starting from the 10mg group, a sentinel approach was adopted, whereby 2 subjects were first enrolled in the group, and randomized to the sentinel group in a 1:1 ratio (test drug:placebo), with the sentinels blinded, and then the remaining subjects in the group were randomized according to a 1:1 ratio (test drug:placebo), and the sentinel group was blinded. After completion of the 72-h safety assessment in the sentinel group, the remaining subjects in the group were randomized to receive the drug according to the test drug group and the placebo group.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    1mg dose group

    The 1mg dose group is a low dose group and only safety and tolerability will be evaluated, pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity will not be evaluated, therefore one subject is planned to be enrolled.1mg SSS40 was injected subcutaneously on day1.

    Drug: SSS40

  • Experimental
    3mg dose group

    Four subjects were included in the 3mg dose group (trial group: 3:1 placebo group).3mg SSS40/Placebo was injected subcutaneously on day1.

    Drug: SSS40 · Drug: Placebo

  • Experimental
    10mg、20mg、30mg、 45mg、60mg or 80mg dose group

    Sentinel dosing was used starting with the 10 mg group, with two subjects first enrolled and randomized 1:1 (test drug:placebo) for sentinel dosing, with sentinels participating in blinding, and then after the sentinel group had completed the 72-h safety assessment, the rest of the subjects in the group were randomized to receive dosing according to the test drug group versus the placebo group.10mg、20mg、30mg、 45mg、60mg or 80mg SSS40/Placebo was injected subcutaneously on day1.
