  • Research summary

    This is a Phase 1/2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in NHVs and patients with IPF. ARO-MMP7 is intended for use in patients with IPF. However, because these patients may have baseline decreased lung function and are frequently on multiple concomitant medications, this study will first evaluate dose levels in an NHV population to generate a baseline understanding of safety in a population with normal airway physiology and limited concomitant medication use prior to evaluating dose levels in patients with IPF. Additionally, NHV cohorts will generate an initial understanding of dose-response, using MMP7 protein concentration as a biomarker of PD effect. For all cohorts, participants who have signed an Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Ethics Committee (EC) approved informed consent form and met all the protocol eligibility criteria during Screening will be randomized to receive ARO-MMP7 or placebo.
    The NHV population (different cohorts) described in the Protocol will take part in Countries out of Europe (New Zealand) and just the cohorts referring to patients with IPF, described in the Protocol, will take part in the European portion of the trial including UK.
