ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new drug called TRN501 to see if it is safe and how it behaves in the body after being given to healthy adult men. The main goal is to determine if TRN501 can be tolerated well when administered just once, compared to a placebo, which is an inactive substance. The trial is currently looking for volunteers aged 18 to 45 who are in good health, weigh at least 50 kg, and have a Body Mass Index (BMI) within a specific range. Participants must also agree to use effective birth control methods if they have a partner who can become pregnant.

If someone decides to join the trial, they will undergo initial screening to ensure they meet the health criteria. Throughout the study, participants will receive either TRN501 or a placebo and will be monitored for safety and any side effects. It’s important to note that individuals with certain health issues or who have recently taken medications may not be eligible to participate. Overall, this study aims to gather important information that could help in the development of treatments for Parkinson's disease in the future.

• • Those with hemoglobin level less than 13.0 g/dL at screening.
• • Others who have abnormal findings in blood or urine tests and who are judged by the investigator to be unsuitable as participants for this study.
