Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Part C- Food Effect (FE) (Cohort C1) Approximately 38 days - The planned dose regimen for Part C may be adjusted by the SRC according to safety, tolerability, and PK results of Part A. Healthy volunteers will be screened to achieve at least 12 evaluable subjects; in the event of early withdrawals, subjects may be replaced. In a randomized, open-label, two-period crossover design, at least 12 evaluable subjects will be randomly assigned to the FP (fasting-postprandial) group and PF (postprandial-fasting) group in a 1:1 ratio. All subjects will take ACT004 capsules orally. The FP group will be given ACT004 capsules in the first period under fasting condition and in the second period under postprandial condition; the PF group will be given ACT004 capsules in the first period under postprandial condition and in the second period under fasting condition, with two periods of cross-administration and a wash-out period of 5 days. Healthy subjects will be screened within 28 days prior to dosing and admitted to the clinical site on Day -1. Eligible subjects will receive ACT004 on Day 1 and Day 6 under fasting or postprandial conditions in the group that they were randomized to. Following completion of all PK sample collection and safety assessments, subjects will be discharged on Day 7 and return to the clinic on Day 10 (End of Study/Early Termination Visit).

Telemetry monitoring will be performed continuously from pre-dose to 6 hour post dose in Part C participants. Telemetry monitoring includes blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory rate. During telemetry monitoring, the same monitoring items as vital signs or 12 Lead- ECG can be monitored once.

Adherence to the intervention will be done via Drug Accountability.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 333171 0
Evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) characteristics of ACT004 after administration and food effect (FE) of ACT004 in healthy adult subjects.
Pharmacokinetic parameters of ACT004 including but not limited to, maximum concentration (Cmax), time to reach maximum concentration (Tmax), area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf), area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the time t of last quantifiable concentration (AUC0-t), apparent volume of distribution (Vd/F), elimination half-life (t1/2),clearance (CL/F), mean residence time (MRTinf), and elimination rate constant (Lambda-z) will be evaluated.
Timepoint [1] 333171 0
PK blood samples will be collected on Day 1 at Predose (-1 to 0 hour), 0.25 hour, 0.5 hour, 1 hour, 2 hour, 3 hour, 4 hour, 6 hour, 8 hour, 12 hour post dose, Day 2, Day 6 Predose (-1 to 0 hour), 0.25 hour, 0.5 hour, 1 hour, 2 hour,3 hour, 4 hour, 6 hour, 8 hour and 12hours and on Day 7. The PK sampling time point on Day 2 corresponds to the point 24 hours after dosing on Day 1. The PK sampling time point on Day 7 corresponds to the point 24 hours after dosing on Day 6. The PK sampling times might need to be adjusted for subsequent cohorts in order to better characterize PK profile of ACT004.

Pharmacokinetics
Statistical methods / analysis
Pharmacokinetic parameters will be analyzed by standard non-compartmental methods with Phoenix WinNonlin.
Plasma concentration-time profiles will be obtained by plotting mean concentrations against blood sampling time points. Plasma concentrations at each blood sampling time point are subject to descriptive statistical analysis.
Pharmacokinetic data will be presented in graphical and/or tabular form and will be summarized descriptively. Summary statistics including number, arithmetic mean, median, SD, minimum, maximum, geometric mean and coefficient of variation, will calculate for all PK measures.
Descriptive statistical analyses will be performed for PK parameters by cohorts.
