DC-TAB is a solution of the small heat-shock protein alpha B-crystallin for intravenous injection, designed to induce selective immunological tolerance as a treatment for multiple sclerosis. In this first-in-man study, DC-TAB is administered to healthy subjects in varying doses and for a varying number of times, after which safety and tolerability is evaluated, as well as the impact of the treatment on antigen-specific responses by peripheral blood T cells and serum antibodies. Blood samples are additionally collected to measure serum concentrations of DC-TAB, and to determine the rate of clearance from the circulation. The study is double blind and placebo-controlled to strengthen the significance especially of immunological evaluations.\n\nThe study consists of two parts. In Part 1, subjects receive a single dose of DC-TAB or placebo whereas in Part 2, (different) subjects receive DC-TAB or placebo on 3 consecutive days. In Part 1, four groups of subjects (n=10) are studied in a single dose, dose-escalation design. Each group of subjects are randomized to receive either DC-TAB (n=8) or placebo (n=2) once. In Part 2, three groups of subjects (n=12) are studied in a multiple dose, dose-escalation design. Each group of subjects are randomized to receive either DC-TAB (n=9) or placebo (n=3) once daily on 3 consecutive days. The next higher dose group in each part of the study only starts once safety data up to 4 days for Part 1, up to 8 days for Part 2 of the previous dose group have been reviewed and have raised no safety concerns. Part 2 is started once all safety data of Part 1 have been reviewed. Immunological effects of the treatments are evaluated over a period of 28 days.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '55 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Caucasian\n* Signed the written informed consent form before first screening procedure\n* Age ≥ 18 years and ≤ 55 years\n* In general good health in the opinion of the investigator\n* BMI between 20.0 and 28.0 kg/m2\n* Use of adequate and stable contraception for 3 months prior to study initiation, during the course of the study and 30 days thereafter.
