aptaTargets announces completion of enrollment in the Phase I study of ApTOLL in healthy volunteers
aptaTargets has completed the enrollment of the First-in-human ApTOLL-FIH-01 trial, a dose ascending, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ApTOLL in healthy volunteers. ApTOLL is a DNA aptamer which has been selected to antagonize TLR4 with high specificity and, therefore, to block the inflammatory response released after the stroke onset and substantially reducing brain damage.
