Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This is a single centre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of single and multiple ascending doses of GT-02287 in healthy volunteers.

This study will consist of 2 parts: single and multiple ascending doses of GT-02287. Participants will provide informed consent and undergo screening for the study no more than 28 days prior to Day 1. Eligible participants will check in to the clinical research unit (CRU) on Day -1, the day prior to dosing. All participants in both parts will attend a Follow-up Visit scheduled 7-10 days after their last dose of IP, or after early termination.

- Part 1 (single ascending doses; SAD):
Study participants will be randomly assigned to receive a single dose of GT-02287 or placebo administered as an oral solution on day 1. There will be 5 ascending dose cohorts in this part with 8 participants per cohort. Sentinel dosing will occur within each cohort. The first 2 participants assigned to each cohort will be randomized 1:1 to GT02287 or placebo. The remaining 6 participants in each cohort will be randomized 5:1 to GT02287 or placebo, for an overall 3:1 randomization ratio for each cohort, including cohort 4.
- Cohort 1: 2.4 mg/kg
- Cohort 2: 4.8 mg/kg
- Cohort 3: 7.7 mg/kg
- Cohort 4: 10 mg/kg, then another 10 mg/kg after at a 1-to-2-week washout (FE)
- Cohort 5: 12 mg/kg

Participants in Part 1 will be confined to the CRU from Day -1 to Day 4, with a single dose of IP administered on Day 1. Participants in Cohort 4 only (the FE cohort) will be recalled, following investigator review of safety data, after a 1-to-2-week washout of their Day 1 dose of IP to assess impact of FE on safety and PK of single dose GT02287. Participants in the FE cohort will be re-admitted to the CRU on FE Day -1 and confined until FE Day 4, with a second single dose of the same allocated treatment on FE Day 1 in a fed state.

The enrollment of the next dose cohort will begin only after review of the safety and tolerability data (through Day 4) and available plasma PK data (through the 60-hour post dose sample) for at least 6 out of 8 participants of the previous dose cohort.

Part 2 (multiple ascending doses; MAD):
This part can begin once safety, tolerability, and PK data are available from the first 3 dose levels from Part 1. Progression to MAD will be confirmed by a blinded Safety Review Committee (SRC). Study participants will be randomly assigned to receive multiple doses of GT 02287 or placebo administered as an oral solution once a day for 14 days. Participants will be confined from Day -1 to Day 17, with once-a-day dosing from Day 1 to Day 14. There will be 4 ascending dose cohorts in this part with 8 healthy adult participants per cohort. The sentinel dosing will not be used, and all participants will be directly randomized in a 3:1 ratio (6 participants will receive GT-02287 and 2 will receive placebo).
- Cohort 1: 2.4 mg/kg/day
- Cohort 2: 4.8 mg/kg/day
- Cohort 3: 7.7 mg/kg/day
- Cohort 4: 10 mg/kg/day

For all cohorts in both parts, all doses of IP will be administered in a fasted state (other than the second dose for the FE cohort). In Part 1, participants will fast overnight for at least 10 hours before their dose in the morning, followed by an additional 4-hour postdose fast. In Part 2, participants will fast for at least 8 hours overnight predose, followed by an additional 4-hour postdose fast. Water will be allowed as often as desired except for the intervals from 1 hour before dosing to 1 hour after dosing.

The second dose of the FE cohort in part 1 will be used to evaluate single-dose PK under fed conditions. Before their dose in the morning, participants will fast for at least 10 hours overnight, then eat a high-fat (=50 percent of total caloric content of the meal), high-calorie (approximately 800 to 1000 calories) meal 30 minutes prior to dose administration. The high-fat meal should be consumed within 30 minutes or less and IP should be administered 30 minutes after the start of the meal. Participants will then fast for at least 4 hours postdose. Water will be allowed as often as desired except the intervals from 10 minutes before dosing to 1 hour after dosing.

Individual doses will be provided for participants by Clinical Reasearch Unit staff on the day of administration in 60 mL amber glass bottles with a polypropylene top seal and screw cap. All participants will receive the IP at the study site under the surveillance of appropriate study personnel.

Study design
Purpose of the study
Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Computer generated randomization schema that will be sent to the unblinded pharmacist.
The allocation is concealed and involved contacting the holder of the allocation schedule who was "off-site" or at central administration site.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
The randomization schedule will be computer generated using a permuted block algorithm and will randomly allocate IP to randomization numbers. The randomization numbers will be assigned to participants sequentially as they are entered into the study.
Cohort 1 of Part 2 may begin enrollment following completion of Cohort 3 in Part 1, following approval by the SRC. Participants who meet study entry criteria will be randomized to GT 02287 or placebo upon admission to the CRU.

Part 1 (single ascending doses; SAD) consists of up to 5 cohorts of 8 healthy adult participants, each receiving a single oral dose of investigational product (IP; GT-02287 or placebo) in a 3:1 ratio.

Part 2 (multiple ascending doses; MAD) consists of up to 4 cohorts of 8 healthy adult participants, each receiving oral GT 02287 or placebo in a 3:1 ratio once a day (QD) for 14 days.

Statistical methods / analysis
Analysis Populations:
- The Safety Analysis Set (SAS) will be the primary analysis set for all safety assessments and will consist of all participants who received at least 1 dose of IP.
- The PK Analysis Set (PKAS) will be the primary analysis set for all PK analyses and will consist of all participants from the SAS with sufficient plasma concentration data available to facilitate the calculation of at least one PK parameter.
- The PD Analysis Set (PDAS) will consist of all participants from the SAS who received at least 1 dose in Part 2 with sufficient plasma data available to facilitate the calculation of at least one PD parameter.
Protocol deviations affecting PK or PD variables will be determined during a pre-analysis review of the data prior to database lock. Participants with confirmed important protocol deviations will be excluded from the PKAS/PDAS, respectively.

Participant Characteristics and Disposition:
Participant characteristics will be summarized overall and by cohort using descriptive statistics for all participants enrolled in the study. Continuous variables will be summarized using descriptive statistics (number of observations, mean, standard deviation [SD], minimum, median, maximum, geometric mean, and coefficient of variation [CV%]). Categorical variables will be described using absolute and relative frequency.
The disposition of all participants enrolled will be summarized overall and by cohort, including the number of participants randomized, the number assigned to each analysis population, the number completing the study, and the number discontinued from the study (along with discontinuation reason).

Safety Analyses:
Safety will be assessed by evaluation of AEs, clinical laboratory values, vital signs, ECG readings, physical and neurological examination results, and the C-SSRS, BL VAS, and POMS-SF assessment scales.
All AEs (from Screening through Follow-up Visit) will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA®) Version 26.0 or higher, by preferred term and system organ class.
Clinically significant safety variables will be summarized by cohort.

The C-SSRS, BL-VAS, and POMS-SF assessment scales will be summarized using descriptive statistics by cohort. Mean and absolute value change from baseline at each post-baseline measurement will be provided.

Pharmacokinetic Analyses:
Descriptive statistics for GT 02287 concentrations and calculated PK parameters will be provided, and will include sample size, mean, SD, median, minimum, maximum, geometric mean, and CV%.
Dose-proportionality analysis will be performed as an exploratory analysis.

Pharmacodynamic Analyses:
Descriptive statistics for calculated pharmacodynamic parameters will be provided, and will include sample size, mean, SD, median, minimum, maximum, geometric mean, and CV%.

Sample size:
The sample size for this study is designed to evaluate preliminary safety and PK data, but not to show statistically significant differences between groups. The sample size of 8 participants per cohort (6 active + 2 placebo) in both parts of the study, with the possibility to expand each cohort to a maximum of 12 total participants (9 active + 3 placebo), is considered sufficient to evaluate the SAD and MAD safety profile and provide sufficient PK information.
