Timepoint [1] 303863 0
•Continuous blood pressure monitoring:
Blood pressure will be recorded continuously by Nexfin® device beginning 10 minutes prior to the start of infusion continuing until 30 minutes after the start of infusion.

•12-lead ECG pre and post-dose:
ECGs will be recorded at least one hour before dosing on Day 1 (baseline recording), at 7, 16, 46 minutes and at 2:01 post-infusion start, and at the Post-Treatment Visit (Day 4) as part of the study exit exam.

• Continuous EEG monitoring:
A single lead EEG recording will begin 15 minutes prior to the start of infusion and continue until 35 minutes after the start of infusion.

• Vital sign (blood pressure, pulse, respiration rate, temperature) monitoring:
Vital signs will be recorded at Screening and at check-in. On Day 1 respiratory rate, , and pulse rate will be recorded 11 minutes prior to the infusion, and 1, 3, 6, 11, 16, 21, and 31 minutes and at 1:02, 1:32, 2:02, 2:32, 3:02, 3:32 and 4:02 after infusion start. Blood pressure will be recorded continuously by Nexfin® device beginning 10 minutes prior to the start of infusion continuing until 30 minutes after the start of infusion. Blood pressure measurement from cuff will be taken at 11 minutes prior to the start of infusion and at 0:31, 1:02, 1:32, 2:02, 2:32, 3:02, 3:32 and 4:02 after infusion start. Tympanic temperature will also be measured at 11 minutes prior to and 31 minutes after the start of infusion.

• Continuous oxygen saturation monitoring:
Pulse oximetry readings will be recorded at -11 minutes prior to infusion, and 6, 11, 21, and 31 minutes, and at 1:02, 1:32, and 2:02 after initiation of infusion (+/- 1 min), and any time the oxygen saturation drops below 90%.

Drug Feel and Drug Likeability VAS Rating completed by the subject at 6, 14, 32, and 61 minutes (+/- 1 min) post-infusion start.

• Adverse event reporting: Treatment Day 1, Post-treatment Day 4
Primary outcome [2] 303864 0
To determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of
CMX-020 administered as a 15-minute intravenous infusion to healthy male and female subjects.

If two or more subjects in a given dose panel experience the same or different adverse events or changes in clinical laboratory evaluations which are Grade equal to or greater than 3, exceed the safety limits for blood pressure, pulse, or oxygen saturation or experience any combination of the above potentially dose limiting toxicities at any time during the study, the treatment randomization will be unblinded to determine if the subjects received active drug or placebo. If unblinding reveals that two or more subjects experiencing any of these dose limiting toxicities in a given panel received CMX-020, dose escalation will stop and the prior dose will be considered the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD).
Timepoint [2] 303864 0
At each dose level prior proceeding to the next dose level
Secondary outcome [1] 340311 0
To describe the single-dose pharmacokinetics of escalating doses of CMX-020 administered as a 15-minute intravenous infusion to healthy male and female subjects.

Pharmacokinetic parameters in plasma will be computed for CMX-020 and its metabolite, DB-130, using noncompartmental methods. Pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, Tmax, AUC(0-tlqc), AUC(0-inf), t1/2, lambdaz , CL, Vd, MRT) will be summarized for each dose group using descriptive statistics.
Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) will be performed for Tmax and lambdaz, and natural logarithms of dose-normalized Cmax, dose-normalized AUCs, and MRT with dose and body weight as a covariate in the model, for CMX-020 and DB-130. Test for dose-proportionality will also be performed.
Timepoint [1] 340311 0
Blood samples for pharmacokinetic analysis of CMX-020 and DB-130 metabolite will be collected on Treatment Day 1 at the following times: -30 minutes pre-infusion, and 2, 5, 10, 15, 17, 20, 25, 30, and 45 minutes and at 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, 2:30, 3:00, 3:30 and 4:00 after the start of the infusion.

Summary
Brief summary
This is a Phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, sequential-panel, ascending single-dose, single-center study to evaluate the safety and tolerability, and describe the pharmacokinetics of escalating single doses of CMX-020 administered as a 15-minute intravenous infusion to healthy male and female subjects.

The study population will be comprised of up to 48 healthy male and female subjects aged 18-50 years, inclusive, considered eligible on the basis of study inclusion and exclusion criteria. Each subject who meets eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned to receive CMX-020 or placebo. Each escalating dose group will consist of 8 subjects; 6 will be randomized to receive a single dose of CMX-020, and 2 will be randomized to receive a single dose of placebo. Treatment groups will be dosed in an escalating order, each dose level increased by no more than 2-fold over the previous dose level. The decision to escalate the dose will be based upon review of the safety and EEG data for all subjects in each previous dosing panel. No subject will receive more than one dose of study medication.
