Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This is a two-period, two-arm crossover study where the enrolled subjects will receive orally a dose of 4 g of N-Acetyl-D-Mannosamine Monohydrate (ManNAc) in fasted and fed conditions. Consented and eligible subjects will check-in at the clinical unit on Day -1 (i.e. one day before dosing) to start 10 hours of overnight fasting under direct supervision of the site study personnel

The intervention will be as follows:

Fasted Arm: up to 8 female and male subjects will receive orally one dose of 4 g of ManNAc in 200 mL of water for irrigation following 10 hours of fasting (i.e. no food or fluid intake by mouth apart from water which is permitted up to 1 hr before dosing). The subjects will be in the clinical facility while they fast for 10 hours under close supervision of the site personnel to ensure protocol compliance. The dose will be administered under direct supervision of the study personnel and the container dispensed with the study drug will be visually inspected to ensure the total dose is administered.

Fed Arm: up to 8 female and male subjects will receive orally one dose of 4 g of ManNAc in 200 mL of water for irrigation 30 minutes after consuming a high-fat content meal. The high-fat meal will consist of 2 eggs fried in butter, two strips of bacon, two slices of toast with butter, approximately 110 grams of hash brown potatoes and 240 mL of whole milk. The dose will be administered under direct supervision of the study personnel and the container dispensed with the study drug will be visually inspected to ensure the total dose is administered.

After a washout period of 7 days subjects will subsequently receive a dose of 4 g of ManNAc in the opposite arm of the study.

Timepoint [2] 365856 0
In each of the treatment periods the following assessments will be performed:

*Safety clinical laboratory tests (haematology and blood chemistry) assessed at baseline (Screening and Day -1) and on Day 3 prior to discharge from the unit.

*12-lead ECGs assessed at baseline (Screening and Day -1), Day 1 (2 hr and 10 hr post-dose) and on Day 3 prior to discharge from the unit.

*Vital signs:blood pressure and pulse rate will be assessed at Screening and on Day -1, on Day 1 (pre-dose, 2 hr, 8 hr and 10 hr post-dose), on Day 2 (24 hr and 36 hr post-dose) and Day 3 (48 hr post-dose)

*Vital signs;respiratory rate and oral temperature will be assessed at Screening and on Day -1, on Day 3 prior to discharge from the unit

*Physical Examination: at screening, on Day-1 and on Day 3 prior to discharge from the unit

*Adverse Events (AEs): monitored daily throughout the conduct of the study (from the time of Informed Consent is signed through to the follow up call on Day 8 subsequent to discharge from the unit after Period 2). AEs will be spontaneously reported by the subjects, in response to open question from the study personnel or revealed by observation during the conduct of the study at the clinical site.

Bio-availability
Statistical methods / analysis
A total of at least 12 subjects are targeted to complete both treatment periods and provide the key pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters.
Data will be tabulated by treatment condition (fed and fasted) and presented using both descriptive and inferential statistics where specified.
