Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)
From the first dose of study drug up to 60 days

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of the study investigational product (IP), whether or not the occurrence is considered related to the study IP. 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 the study IP. An untoward finding generally may necessitate therapeutic intervention, require an invasive diagnostic procedure, or require discontinuation or a change in dose of IP or a concomitant medication. Any clinically significant vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG)/telemetry/Holter monitoring, laboratory values will be considered as AEs.

Secondary Endpoints

Orthostatic Changes in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) Values From Semi-Recumbent to Standing at 0.5 Hours After First Dose
From semi-recumbent to standing at 0.5 hours after first dose (Day 1)
Changes in Semi-Recumbent Heart Rate (HR) Values at 2 Hours After First Dose
At 2 hours after first dose (Day 1)
Number of Participants with Antidrug Antibody (ADA) Status

Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
Part 1: TAK-004 or Placebo (Single Ascending Dose Cohorts)EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive TAK-004 or matching-placebo subcutaneous injection on Day 1 in Cohort S1 using a sentinel dosing scheme in a double-blind manner. After dosing the first two participants in Cohort S1, the investigator will review all available safety and tolerability data up to 24 hours post-dose before dosing the remaining participants in the Cohort S2-S10. Single ascending doses are nominal and may be modified based on emerging safety and available PK data during the study but will have a corresponding dose that does not exceed the maximal defined exposure.
Part 2: TAK-004 or Placebo (Multiple Ascending Dose Cohorts)EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive TAK-004 (dose to be decided \[TBD\]) or matching-placebo subcutaneous injection, once daily for 5 days (i.e., Day 1 to 5) in each 5 multi-ascending dose cohorts (M1-M5). The dose in Part 2 will be determined at the dose escalation meeting based upon emerging safety, tolerability, and available PK data from Part 1.
Part 3: TAK-004 or Placebo (Expansion Cohorts)EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive TAK-004 (TBD) or matching-placebo subcutaneous injection on Day 1 in each single ascending dose expansion cohorts (E1 and E2). Doses will be determined at the dose escalation meeting based on safety, tolerability and available PK data from Parts 1 and 2. Expansion cohort 2 (optional) may be conducted at the sponsor's discretion after reviewing expansion cohort 1 data.
