Summary
Background: Heart disease is the leading cause of death, disability, and healthcare expense in the United States. Researchers think a new drug called Fx-5A may be useful to treat different cardiovascular diseases and inflammation. Objective: To understand the safety, tolerability, and effects of Fx-5A. Eligibility: Healthy people ages 18 and older who are not pregnant Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood tests Pregnancy test for female participants Participants will stay in the hospital for 36-48 hours. This will include: Blood tests EKGs: Electrodes will be placed on the participant s chest. The patches are connected to cables that will send information from their heart to a machine. Single infusion of Fx-5A. A needle will be used to insert a plastic tube into a vein in the participant s arm. This tube will remain in the arm for the duration of the hospital stay for blood tests. Participants will have follow-up visits day 7 and day 28 after their infusion. At these visits, they will have blood tests and an EKG. Participation will last 5-10 weeks.
