Quick Navigation

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This study is a Phase I clinical trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles with single intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) doses of ENA-001.

Official Title

Inclusion Criteria	Exclusion Criteria
1. Subjects must be willing to give written informed consent for the trial and able to adhere to dose and visit schedules. 2. Male and female, \>18 to ≤55 years of age. 3. Subject must weigh ≥50 to ≤100 kg. 4. Subjects must have Body Mass Index \[weight/height2 (kg/m2)\] between 18 to 30 kg/m2 (inclusive). 5. Have no clinical or electrocardiographic signs of ischemic heart disease as determined by the Investigator with normal cardiac intervals appropriate for their gender. The Screening 12 lead electrocardiogram (ECG) conduction intervals must be within gender specific normal range (e.g., QTcf female \< 450 msec QT corrected for heart rate by Fridericia's cube root formula (QTcF) males \< 430 msec, PR interval ≤ 220 msec). ECGs are to be judged by the investigator or sub-investigator as per standardized procedures. 6. Subjects' clinical laboratory tests (blood hematology, blood chemistry, coagulation and urinalysis) must not include any significant abnormalities and liver enzymes must be in normal range. 7. Vital sign measurements must be within the following ranges during screening and on Day -1: 1. body temperature, \>35.5 C to ≤37.5 C 2. systolic blood pressure, \>90 to ≤140 mmHg 3. diastolic blood pressure, \>40 to ≤95 mmHg 4. pulse rate, \>40 to ≤100 bpm 8. Non-vasectomized men must agree to use a condom with spermicide (when marketed in the country), double-barrier contraception, abstain from heterosexual intercourse, or have a sole sexual partner of non-childbearing potential during the trial and for 3 months after stopping the medication. Male subjects must agree not to donate sperm from the time of dosing until 90 days after dosing. 9. Women of childbearing potential (defined as all women who are not surgically sterile or postmenopausal for at least 1 year prior to informed consent) must have a negative pregnancy test prior to enrollment as well as prior to each subsequent period of dosing administration, and must agree to at least one of the following contraception requirements from screening through at least 3 months after the last dose of study drug: 1. Be sexually inactive (abstinent) 2. Intrauterine device in place for at least 3 months prior to dosing with a barrier method (condom or diaphragm) and spermicide at least 3 months after last dose of study drug. 3. Double barrier methods (e.g., condom and diaphragm) with spermicide for at least 30 days prior to screening and through at least 3 months after last dose of study drug. 4. Surgical sterilization of the partner (vasectomy at least six months prior to dosing) with a barrier method (e.g., condom or diaphragm) and spermicide through at least 3 months after last dose of study drug. 5. Female subjects who claim to be sexually inactive but become sexually active during the course of the study must agree to use a double barrier method (e.g., condom and diaphragm) with spermicide from the time of the start of sexual activity through at least 3 months after last dose of study drug. 6. In addition, female subjects of childbearing potential must be advised to remain sexually inactive or to keep the same birth control method through at least 3 months after last dose of study drug. 7. Hysteroscopic sterilization and using a barrier method (e.g., condom or diaphragm) and spermicide throughout the study. 8. Bilateral tubal ligation or bilateral salpingectomy and be using a barrier method (e.g., condom or diaphragm) and spermicide throughout the study. 9. Hysterectomy. 10. Bilateral oophorectomy. Women with amenorrhea for at least 1 year prior to dosing and who have follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) serum levels consistent with postmenopausal status, are considered post-menopausal and therefore of non childbearing potential. 10. Subjects must demonstrate a normal Allen's test for both hands, to assure adequate arterial collateral circulation. 11. Subjects must be free of any clinically significant disease that would interfere with the study evaluations.	1. Current diagnosis of psychiatric disease requiring daily medication, including controlled or uncontrolled schizophrenia and current or recently treated depressive disorders. 2. Current diagnosis of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (DSM-5) requiring treatment. 3. History of alcohol abuse (more than an average of two (2) drinks per day) within the past two (2) years. 4. History of drug abuse within the past two years. 5. History of regular smoking/vaping or any use of nicotine products within the past year (\>5 per week means exclusion). 6. Failure to take or test positive of the drug of abuse tests or alcohol urine test at screening or check-in. 7. Positive for HIV, or Hepatitis B or C at screening. 8. Blood donation or blood loss within 60 days of screening or plasma donation within 7 days of screening. 9. Subjects with a history of bleeding disorders or coagulopathies. 10. History of dyspnea, asthma, tuberculosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, sleep apnea or any other ventilatory / lung disease. 11.

Subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, will not be able to participate optimally in the study. 15. Any surgical or medical condition which might significantly alter the distribution, metabolism or excretion of any drug. The investigator should be guided by evidence of any of the following, and be discussed with the Sponsor prior to enrollment into the trial: 1. history of pancreatic injury or pancreatitis; 2. history or presence of liver disease or liver injury; 3. history or presence of impaired renal function as indicated by clinically significant elevation in creatinine, BUN/urea, urinary albumin, or clinically significant urinary cellular constituents; or 4. history of urinary obstruction or difficulty in voiding. 16. Subject who has a history of any infectious disease within 4 weeks prior to drug administration that in the opinion of the investigator, affects the subject's ability to participate in the trial. 17. Subjects who are part of the study staff personnel or family members of the study staff personnel. 18. Subjects who have demonstrated allergic reactions (e.g., food, drug, atopic reactions, or asthmatic episodes) which, in the opinion of the investigator and Sponsor, interfere with their ability to participate in the trial. 19.
