Description of intervention(s) / exposure
A single-blind, placebo-controlled, single dose, safety and pharmacokinetic study of 3 ascending doses of SANGUINATE in 3 cohorts of healthy volunteers. Twenty four (24) eligible healthy volunteers will be sequentially enrolled into one of 3 dosing cohorts, each consisting of no less than three
males and no less than three females. Within each cohort, two subjects will receive placebo (saline) and six subjects will receive active treatment. Active treatment will be consists of 2,4 & 8 ml per kg for 1st, 2nd and 3rd cohort respectively which would be administered as a slow intravenous (i.v.) bolus infusion. duration of investigational product (IP) administration would be 6 to 8 hours of single dose administration.

Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
This is a single-blind, placebo-controlled, single dose, safety and pharmacokinetic study of 3 ascending doses of SANGUINATE (trademark) in 3 cohorts of healthy volunteers. Twenty four (24) eligible healthy volunteers, ages 18 to 45, will be recruited and sequentially enrolled into one of 3 dosing cohorts, each consisting of no less than three males and no less than three females.
Within each cohort, two subjects will receive placebo (saline) and six subjects will receive active treatment.
Allocation to a particular arm would be done by central randomisation generated by computer software. Dose escalation to the next cohort will occur after review of the key safety data obtained from the previous cohort indicates that it is safe to proceed. Subjects in a given cohort will receive a single dose by intravenous infusion on the morning of Day 1, and be followed as an inpatient through at least 48-hours post-dose (Day 3), when they will be discharged and asked to return for follow-up visits on Days 4, 5, and 7 (+/-1 day)
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Simple randomisation using a randomisation table created by computer software (i.e. computerised sequence generation)
