Conditions
Summary
This double blind, placebo controlled, first-in-human study will assess the safety, tolerability of single and multiple oral doses of MRX-5 tablets in healthy men or women of non -child bearing potential and also to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of MRX-5 and its metabolite MRX-6038, and to compare the PK of a single dose of MRX-5 administered fed vs. fasted conditions. Who is it for? You may be eligible for this study if you are a healthy adult aged between 18 and 55 years old. Approximately 84 healthy participants will be enrolled in this study. (60 subjects in Part 1 and 24 subjects in Part 2) The total participation in the study will last around 5 weeks which consists of Screening visit, Admission and treatment period and Follow up visit.

Interventions
MRX-5 is a novel synthetic antibiotic. Investigational Product: MRX-5 Tablets or Matching Placebo This study will be conducted in healthy adult subjects in 2 parts. Part A- Single Ascending Dose (SAD) and Food-effect (FE): Cohort 1-6 (SAD) to receive placebo or MRX-5 as mentioned below. Cohort 1: 50mg Cohort 2: 100mg Cohort 3: 200mg Cohort 4: 400mg Cohort 5: 800mg Cohort 6: 1200mg Cohort 7 (FE) is open label to receive a planned dose of 200mg on Day 1 under fasted condition and second dose on Day 8 (+3 days) in fed condition. In the fed state, a standard high-fat meal (total 800-1000 calories, 50 percent of calories derived from fat) is provided 30 minutes before dosing and consists of 150, 250 and 500-600 calories from Protein, Carbohydrates, Fat, respectively. Part B- Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD): MAD Cohorts 1-3 to receive placebo or one of the following doses 200, 400 and 600mg daily for 10 days. Subjects will be confined in a Clinical Research Unit during the dosing periods and will be monitored to ensure compliance with dosing.
