About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Healthy Subjects

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 60 Years (Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Healthy male or female of non-child bearing potential; 18 to 55 years old; are non-smokers and have not used nicotine products within 3 months prior to screening.
  • Male or female, 18 to 60 years old, with sickle cell disease (hemoglobin SS, HbS/β0thalassemia, HbS/β+thalassemia, or HbSC) not requiring chronic blood transfusion therapy; without hospitalization in 30 days before screening or receiving blood transfusion within 30 days before screening; subjects are allowed concomitant use of hydroxyurea if the dose has been stable for the 3 months prior to screening.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who have a clinically relevant history or presence of respiratory, gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, haematological, lymphatic, neurological, cardiovascular, psychiatric, musculoskeletal, genitourinary, immunological, dermatological, connective tissue diseases or disorders.
  • Subjects who consume more than 14 (female subjects) or 21 (male subjects) units of alcohol a week.
  • Subjects who have used any investigational product in any clinical trial within 30 days of screening
  • Subjects with sickle cell disease who smoke >10 cigarettes per day; have hemoglobin level <6 g/dL or >10.4 g/dL (> ULN (appropriately corrected for gender) for Cohort 15) at screening; have aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >4x upper limit of normal or alanine aminotransferase (ALT), or alkaline phosphatase (ALK) >3x upper limit of normal reference range (ULN) at screening; have moderate or severe renal dysfunction
