A Study of AK119 (Anti-CD73 Antibody), a Treatment for COVID-19, in Healthy Subjects

Summary

This is a first-in-human (FIH), Phase 1, single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK and immunogenicity of AK119, a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting the CD73.
