A Phase 1 Randomized Study of Single Intravenous Infusions of the Novel Nitroxyl Donor BMS-986231 in Healthy Volunteers.

ABSTRACT: Nitroxyl (HNO) is a reactive nitrogen molecule that has potential therapeutic benefits for patients with acute heart failure. The results of the first-in-human study for BMS-986231, a novel HNO donor, are reported. The aim of this sequential cohort study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profile of BMS-986231 after 24- and 48-hour intravenous infusions in healthy volunteers. Eighty subjects were randomized and dosed. Seven cohorts (stratum A) received BMS-986231 0.1, 0.33, 1, 3, 5, 10, and 15 μg/kg/min or placebo, infused over 24 hours. An additional cohort (stratum B) received 10 μg/kg/min or placebo, infused over 48 hours. Adverse events (AEs) were reported for 30 days after completion of infusion. Blood/urine samples were collected at regular intervals; other
