Clinical Study to Investigate the Pharmacokinetics and Safety/Tolerability of SA001 in Healthy Male Volunteers

This study consists of Part 1 followed Part 2.

Part 1 The purpose of this phase1 study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of SA001 and active comparator(Rebamipide) in healthy male volunteers.

Part 2 The purpose of this phase1 study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of multiple oral dose of SA001 in healthy male volunteers.

Part 1(Single dose, dose escalation study, SA001 240mg\~1,080mg dose group)

The starting dose is SA001 240mg, and the maximum dose is 1,080mg. Each dose group is assigned to Experimental group (SA001 or SA001 + Active Comparator(Rebamipide)) or Placebo group in a ratio of 3:1. The pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of SA001 and its metabolite are investigated after a single oral administration.

Part 2 (Multiple dose, dose escalation study, SA001 360mg\~1,080mg dose group)

The starting dose is SA001 360mg, and the maximum dose is 1,080mg. Each dose group is assigned to SA001 or Placebo in a ratio of 3:1. The pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of SA001 and its metabolite are investigated after a multiple oral administration.
