A Phase I/II Study of ITU512 in Healthy Participants and Patients With Sickle Cell Disease

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary food effect of ITU512 as well as the fetal hemoglobin (HbF)-inducing capacity of ITU512. This will be the first evaluation of the potential therapeutic effect of ITU512 in healthy participants and patients with sickle cell disease (SCD).

Part 2 (Sickle Cell Disease) \- Male and female participants with a diagnosis of sickle cell disease Key Exclusion Criteria: Part 1 (Healthy participants) * QTcF ≥ 450 msec (as a mean value of triplicates) * History of arrhythmias * History of significant illness which has not resolved within two (2) weeks prior to initial dosing * Women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) Part 2 (Sickle Cell Disease) * Current use of hydroxyurea/hydroxycarbamide (HU/HC) * QTcF ≥ 450 msec (as a mean value of triplicates) * History of arrhythmias Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
