Description

GRWD0715 is an orally administered, selective inhibitor of the Endoplasmic Reticulum Aminopeptidase 1 \[ERAP1\] enzyme being explored as a potential new treatment for axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), a long term condition caused by inflammation predominantly affecting the sacroiliac joints (SIJs) and spine.

Interventions

  • Part A - Single Ascending Dose (SAD) in Healthy Human Volunteers (Drug)
    Participants in Part A will receive a single dose of GRWD0715 on Day 1 only.
  • Part B - Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) in participants with axSpA (Drug)
    Participants in Part B will receive GRWD0715 for 28 days
  • Part C - Safety expansion cohort in participants with axSpA (Drug)
    Participants in Part C will receive GRWD0715 for 12 weeks
  • Part D - Randomised, placebo-controlled, expansion cohort in participants with axSpA (Drug)
    Participants in Part D will receive GRWD0715 or placebo-to-match for 12 weeks

Eligibility criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria: Healthy Volunteers * Healthy male and female subjects aged 18-55 years inclusive, at the Screening visit * Participant must provide written informed consent to participate in the study * Participant must be able and willing to comply with the requirements of the protocol (including dietary restrictions and exclusion of grapefruit juice) * Male participants (and their female partners) / female participants must be willing to adhere to contraception requirements as detailed in the protocol * Non-smokers or ex-smokers who have not smoked within the previous 6 months, as determined at the Screening visit * Participant with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 19-30. Body Mass Index = Body weight (kg) / \[Height (m)\]2 AxSpA Participants * Male or female, 18-65 years of age * Participants diagnosed with Axial Spondyloarthritis, also fulfilling ASAS classification criteria including: * HLA-B27 +ve (local testing) * Objective evidence of inflammation at screening, defined as active sacroiliac joint inflammation on MRI fulfilling the ASAS MRI criteria (MRI+), assessed by the Principal Investigator or appropriately trained delegate, and/or elevated C-reactive protein (CRP+) ≥5.0mg/L. o Objective evidence of inflammation may not be required for Part B. Participants who do not require objective evidence of inflammation require Sponsor approval prior to screening for and/or enrolling to the study. * A score of: * ≥ 2.1 (High Disease Activity) on the Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS) on current treatment\* OR * In Part B only, A: a score of \>1.3 (Low to Moderate Disease Activity) on the ASDAS on current treatment. Participants with a score of ≥1.3 and \< 2.1 require Sponsor approval prior to screening for the study. * At least one of the following: * Current treatment with a NSAID, at a n adequate dose and duration per local clinical guidelines, with inadequate clinical response OR * Intolerance to ≥1 NSAID or contraindication(s) to NSAIDs Participants may have received 1 or 2 (Australia only) prior b/tsDMARD and discontinued due to intolerance or inadequate efficacy provided that: Part B: Participants who have received two prior b/ts DMARDs require Sponsor approval prior to screening. Part D: Participants with prior b/tsDMARD treatment may be capped. • Participants who have received 1/(Australia only) 2 prior treatments are required to undergo a washout at minimum: Biologic DMARDs 4 weeks or 5 half-lives prior to Day 1, whichever is longer. Any JAK inhibitor DMARDs 2 weeks prior to Day 1 Part C only: Participants enrolling into Part C must: * Have completed Part B or Part D treatment per protocol. * Have not permanently discontinued GRWD0715 due to safety concerns. * Have no ongoing safety issues that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would preclude further treatment. * Provide written informed consent to participate in Part C. Part D only: Participants must be GRWD0715 naïve.

Haemoglobin \<10 g/dL. 2. Absolute white blood cell count \<3.0 x 10\^9 /L (\<3000 mm\^3) 3. Absolute neutrophil count \<1.2 x 10\^9 /L (\<1200 mm\^3) 4. Absolute lymphocyte count \<1.0 x 10\^9 /L (\<1000 mm\^3) 5. Platelet count \<100 x 10\^9 /L (\<100.000 mm\^3) * Inadequate liver function, defined as; total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) more than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal at screening visit. For subjects with Gilberts syndrome, upper limit of normal for total bilirubin will be 2.9mg/dl * History of any other autoimmune rheumatic disease (e.g., psoriatic arthropathy, systemic lupus erythematosus, mixed connective tissue disease, scleroderma, polymositis) or known diagnosis of fibromyalgia * Participants with a previous history of or currently stable psoriasis are eligible * Active or symptomatic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Participants with a history of IBD are allowed to participate * Presence of active anterior uveitis
