Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
From Day 1 up to 24 Weeks

An Adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study intervention. A TEAE is defined as an AE that begins or that worsens in severity after the study drug has been administered. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death, is life threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, leads to a congenital anomaly /birth defect, is the other important medical event.

Number of Participants With Severity Grades of TEAEs
From Day 1 up to 24 Weeks

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. A TEAE is defined as an AE that begins or that worsens in severity after the study drug has been administered. As per the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5.0, Grade 1: mild; asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; treatment not indicated; Grade 2: moderate; minimal, local, or noninvasive treatment indicated; limiting age-appropriate activities of daily living; Grade 3: severe or medically significant but not immediately lifethreatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self-care activities of daily living; Grade 4: life-threatening consequences; urgent treatment indicated; Grade 5: fatal.

Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Clinically Significant Abnormal Vital Signs
From Baseline (Day -1) up to 24 weeks

Number of participants with change from baseline in clinically significant abnormal vital signs (temperature, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure) is presented.

Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Clinically Significant Abnormal Electrocardiogram (ECG)
From Baseline (Day -1) up to 24 weeks

Number of participants with change from baseline in clinically significant abnormal ECG findings (Heart rate, PR interval, QRS interval, QT interval and QT interval using Fridericia's correction \[QTcF\]) is presented.

Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Clinically Significant Abnormal Laboratory Values
From Baseline (Day -1) up to 24 weeks

Number of participants with change from baseline in clinically significant abnormal laboratory values (hematology, clinical chemistry, coagulation and routine urinalysis parameters) is presented.

Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Clinically Significant Physical Examination Findings
From Baseline (Day -1) up to 24 weeks

Number of participants with change from baseline in clinically significant physical examination findings (assessments of the cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, neurological, and skin systems and inspection of the injection site) is presented.

Interventions
NameTypeDescription
DCR-AUDDRUGDCR-A1203, the drug substance of DCR-AUD, is a synthetic double-stranded (hybridized duplex) RNA oligonucleotide conjugated to GalNAc ligands that enable specific hepatic access and update after subcutaneous administration. DCR-AUD is a sterile solution of DCR-A1203 at a concentration of 160 mg/mL in water for injection (WFI).
PlaceboDRUG0.9% saline for injection.
