A First-in-human Study of the Safety of an Immunosuppressive Antibody (IMP761) in Healthy Volunteers

1. Signed informed consent and willing and able to comply with the study protocol;
2. Healthy men or women, 18 to 55 years of age (inclusive) at screening. The health status is verified by absence of evidence of any clinically significant active or uncontrolled chronic disease following a detailed medical history, a complete physical examination including vital signs, laboratory measurements, and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG);
3. Female subjects agree to use effective contraception for the duration of their participation in the study and until 186 days after End of Study (EOS).
4. Male volunteers agree to use barrier protection when they engage in sexual relations with women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) or lactating women for the duration of their participation in the study and until 96 days after EOS.
5. Body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 32 kg/m2, inclusive, and with a minimum bodyweight of 50 kg;
6. Fitzpatrick skin type I-III (cohorts 2-5 only);
7. Has the ability to communicate well with the Investigator in Dutch language and willing to comply with the study restrictions.
8. Has the intention to be reachable by mobile phone or e-mail during the whole study period.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Evidence of any active or chronic disease or condition that could interfere with, or for which the treatment of might interfere with, the conduct of the study, or that would pose an unacceptable risk to the subject in the opinion of the investigator (following a detailed medical history, physical examination, vital signs (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, body temperature) and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG)). Minor deviations from the normal range may be accepted, if judged by the Investigator to have no clinical relevance;
2. Clinically significant abnormalities, as judged by the Investigator, in laboratory test results (including haematology panel, chemistry panel and urinalysis). In the case of uncertain or questionable results, tests performed during screening may be repeated before randomization to confirm eligibility. A rescreen will be allowed based on judgement of the investigator;
3. Positive immunodeficiency virus (HIV1, HIV2) antigen or antibody, Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), Hepatitis B Virus antibody (HBV Ab), Hepatitis C antibody (HCV Ab), (latent) Tuberculosis at screening;
4. Any disease associated with immune system impairment, including immune mediated diseases, transplantation patients and any confirmed significant allergic reactions (urticaria or anaphylaxis) against any drug or multiple drug allergies (non-active hay fever is acceptable);
5. Use of any medications (prescription or over-the-counter [OTC]), within 21 days prior to dosing with Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP), or less than 5 half-lives (whichever is longer). An exception is made for paracetamol (up to 4 g/day).
6. Use of vitamin, mineral, herbal and dietary supplements within 7 days prior to study drug administration, which are deemed clinically significant by the investigator.
7. Use of immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory medication within 30 days prior to dosing with IMP or planned to use immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory medication during the course of the study.
8. Any vaccination within 30 days prior to dosing with IMP or planned during the course of the study or within 90 days after the last dose of IMP.
9. Use of antibiotic therapy within 90 days prior to dosing with IMP or planned to use during the course of the study.
10. Subject is unable to abstain from travelling to areas with high endemic rates of infectious diseases from study entry until 90 days after the last dose of IMP
11. Alcohol will not be allowed from at least 24 hours before screening and each scheduled visit. At other times during the course of the study no more than 2 units of alcohol per day will be allowed.
12. If a woman, pregnant, or breast-feeding, or planning to become pregnant during the study.
13. Have any current and/or recurrent clinically significant skin condition at the dermal challenge area (i.e. atopic dermatitis), including tattoos.
14. Any known factor, condition, or disease that might interfere with treatment compliance, study conduct or interpretation of the results such as drug or alcohol dependence or psychiatric disease.
