Sponsor's own description
This first-in-human, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase I study will be conducted in participants with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) to explore safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of GDC-0134. It will include three components: a Single-Ascending-Dose (SAD) stage, a Multiple-Ascending-Dose (MAD) stage, and an Open-Label Safety Expansion (OSE) stage.
