Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This is a single centre, Phase I, single- and multiple-dose escalation clinical trial to be conducted in healthy volunteers. This study will be subdivided into two parts:

Part A Single ascending dose (SAD): will comprise of up to 5 cohorts with one optional cohort (SAD Cohorts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 under fasted conditions and optional SAD Cohort Xb under fed conditions). All cohorts will enrol 8 participants each with 6 participants randomised to receive 83-0060 capsules orally and 2 participants randomised to receive placebo capsules orally as a single dose on Day 1 with the following doses:

• SAD Cohort 1: 15 mg (under fasted conditions)
• SAD Cohort 2: 50 mg (under fasted conditions)
• SAD Cohort 3: 150 mg (under fasted conditions)
• SAD Cohort 4: 300 mg (under fasted conditions)
• SAD Cohort 5: 600 mg (under fasted conditions)
• Optional SAD Cohort Xb: TBC (under fed conditions)

Part B Multiple ascending dose (MAD): will comprise of 3 cohorts (MAD Cohorts 1, 2 and 3). Cohorts will enrol 8 participants each with 6 participants randomised to receive 83-0060 capsules orally and 2 participants randomised to receive placebo capsules orally once daily with the following doses:

• MAD Cohort 1: 150 mg (Day 1 to Day 10)
• MAD Cohort 2: 300 mg (Day 1 to Day 10)
• MAD Cohort 3: 600 mg (Day 1 to Day 10)

The decision to commence Part B of the study will be based upon Safety Review Committee (SRC) review of blinded clinical and laboratory safety data through to and including the End of Study (EoS) visit and available blinded PK data up to day 14 post-dose of all Cohorts in Part A.

Cohorts will be dosed in an escalating order with participants only able to enrol in one dose cohort.

Adherence to the intervention will be done via supervised drug administration.

Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
All study participants who sign an informed consent form (ICF) at screening will receive a unique sequential number (i.e., a Screening Number).
Participants who meet the study eligibility criteria will be assigned a randomization number pre-dose on Day 1, which corresponds to a study treatment (83-0060 or placebo). Sealed participant-specific code break envelopes will be produced by the unblinded statistician(s) and will be retained at the clinical facility in a secure, accessible location.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
The allocation to 83-0060 or placebo will be performed using a block randomization algorithm and will be documented in the study randomization schedule. The randomization schedule will be prepared by an unblinded statistician and maintained under controlled access.
