Adverse events — posted to ClinicalTrials.gov
Time frame: From first drug administration until 10 days after last drug administration, up to 27 days (for dose groups 1 to 5 and "Placebo Matching BI 705564" ) or up to 37 days (for dose group 8 and "Placebo Matching BI 705564 - SPT")..
Reporting threshold: 5%.
Adverse-event reports describe events observed during the trial — not all are caused by the drug.
The primary objective of this trial is to investigate safety and tolerability of BI 705564 in healthy male subjects, following oral administration of multiple rising doses.
Secondary objectives are the exploration of the pharmacokinetics, including dose proportionality and investigation of linearity.
