This is a first-in-human (FIH study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic effects of AKB-9090 in healthy adult participants. The study consists of two stages: Stage 1, a single ascending dose (SAD) phase with four dose cohorts, and Stage 2, a multiple ascending dose (MAD) phase with one dose cohort. Approximately 32 participants in SAD and 12 in MAD are planned to be enrolled.
