Has a history of mononucleosis within previous six months of scheduled admission.
- Has an abnormally low Protein C or Protein S at screening, or screening laboratory tests indicate Factor V Leiden is present.

Has a heart rate persistently >90 beats/minute or <45 beats/minute on vital signs testing at screening or on admission, or a 10-second ECG at Screening, Admission or Baseline (prior to first dose) showing any of the following:
- HR that is < 45 or > 90 bpm;
- QRS interval that is > 120 msec;

- Any fascicular block or bundle branch block;
- Neuromuscular ECG artifact that cannot be readily eliminated.
- Has a history of substance abuse, drug addiction, or alcoholism within 1 year prior to screening. (As defined by DSM IV criteria).
- Within 2 weeks prior to scheduled administration of study drug, Volunteer has taken any prescription or over-the-counter medication, herbal preparation or dietary supplement that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may increase risk to Volunteer's safety or to achievement of study objectives.
- Unwilling to abstain from alcohol use or from caffeine from 24 hours prior to admission.
- Has donated blood or blood products within 30 days prior to admission; is considered mentally unstable or exhibits anxious, excitable, hostile, or emotionally reactive affect; has received an investigational test substance within 30 days prior to the scheduled administration of investigational test article, or anticipates receiving any investigational test substance other than TXA127 during the course of this study.

Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability
In this phase I study the primary safety variables being assessd include laboratory variables (chemistry, hematology, coagulation system parameters, and urinalysis) and regular vital signs, injection site inspection, and physical exams as indicated.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Preliminary effectiveness as assessed by changes in the concentration of peripheral blood stem cells (CD34+) and other hematologic parameters.
Parameters being assessed for preliminary effectiveness in this phase I study include routine chemistry and hematology parameters and flow-cytometric evaluation of blood samples for CD34, CD3, CD4, CD8 and CD19 concentrations at 4, 8, 12 and 16 hours post-dose

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a Phase I Study to be conducted in 18 healthy volunteers. Each will receive daily injections for 5 days of TXA127 alone, or Neupogen alone, or TXA127 plus Neupogen together.
The aim of the study is to determine the safety of the TXA127 alone and in combination with Neupogen, and to determine whether the use of TXA127 alone or in combination with Neupogen enhances peripheral blood stem cell (CD34+)mobilization.
Detailed Description
In this double-blinded comparison study, healthy volunteers will be randomized to one of 3 treatment groups: (Group A) TXA127 at 300 mcg/kg once a day for 5 days or (Group B) Neupogen 10 mcg/kg once a day for 5 days or (Group C) both together once a day for 5 days, these treatments administered by subcutaneous injection, to increase peripheral blood stem cell (CD34+) concentrations in healthy volunteers.
A minimum of 18 healthy male and female volunteer Subjects (6 in each treatment group) who meet all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled in this study. Subjects will be recruited from the study center's existing database of healthy volunteers and/or by advertising. A sufficient number of alternate volunteers will be screened and checked-in on Day 0 to ensure 6 eligible healthy volunteers are enrolled on Day 1 in each treatment group. Subjects will remain housed in teh Unit during the conduct of this study.
Safety: Predose blood samples will be collected immediately prior to receiving the study medication(s), as well as at 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours and 16 hours post-dose.
