A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multiple Ascending Dose, Safety, Pharmacokinetic, and Pharmacodynamic Study of Orally Administered AG-348 in Healthy Volunteers

This is a dose escalation study that will be conducted in healthy volunteers. Multiple
cohorts of volunteers will receive ascending (increasingly higher) oral doses of AG-348
daily for 14 days to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple oral doses of AG-348,
the pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple doses of AG-348, and the pharmacodynamic profile of
AG-348 with specific biomarkers assessed in the blood.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Healthy adult male or female subjects 18 - 60 years, in good general health who are
able to understand consent and complete all study procedures.

- Female subjects of non-child bearing potential (surgically sterile or post-menopausal

after dosing.

- Subjects with body weight ≥50 kg; BMI ≥18.5 and ≤32 kg/m2.

- Subjects who are non-smokers and have not used nicotine-containing products for at

- Female subjects who are not post-menopausal.

- Subjects with recent use of prescription, over the counter (OTC), herbal and/or
dietary medications and/or supplements.

- Male subjects with QTcF interval ECG > 450 msec,or female subjects with QTcF interval
ECG > 470 msec.

- Subjects with a history of a serious mental illness.

- Subjects with a clinically relevant medical history or pre-existing medical condition
that would interfere with the absorption, metabolism or excretion of the study drug.

- Subjects with a history of any primary malignancy (cancer). Exceptions are certain
