Brief Summary
|
This Phase 1 clinical study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HCFX-072515, a herbal formulation developed by Himalaya Wellness Company, in healthy adult volunteers. The study follows a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple cohort, sequential dose escalation design. A total of 40 healthy male and female participants aged between 18 and <45 years will be enrolled and divided into four cohorts of ten participants each (seven receiving HCFX-072515 and three receiving placebo). The investigational product will be administered orally for seven days (with a +1 day window) in escalating doses. The dose escalation will proceed from one cohort to the next only after evaluation of safety and tolerability data from the preceding cohort. The planned dose regimen is as follows: Cohort 1 – one tablet once daily, Cohort 2 – one tablet twice daily, Cohort 3 – two tablets once daily, and Cohort 4 – two tablets twice daily. Safety assessments will include monitoring of adverse events, vital signs, physical and systemic examinations, electrocardiogram, laboratory investigations, and gastrointestinal tolerability using the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS).The study aims to establish the safety profile and gastrointestinal tolerability of HCFX-072515 in healthy adults, providing the basis for further clinical development of the formulation for urinary tract and kidney health. |
