a study of the investigational monoclonal antibody, vyd2311, in healthy participants

Conditions: COVID-19

Summary: a study to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a sars-cov-2-directed monoclonal antibody in healthy participants

this is a phase i, first-in-human, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, single escalating dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of vyd2311, a monoclonal antibody targeting sars-cov-2, in healthy volunteers. the primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple dose levels of vyd2311 after a single iv, im, or sc administration in healthy participants. the secondary objectives are to evaluate the pk of vyd2311 after iv or im administration and the immunogenicity of vyd2311 after iv, im, or sc administration in healthy participants.

Eligibility criteria:
