Sponsor's own description
The objective of this Phase 1b trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of procizumab, a monoclonal antibody under development for the treatment of cardiogenic shock (CS). CS is a life-threatening hypoperfusion of vital organs that frequently results in death. In addition to safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of procizumab are evaluated to define the optimum phase 2 dose (P2D) of procizumab.
