Healthy Volunteers
Fx-5A was specifically designed to remove excess cholesterol in artery walls. Models have shown that Fx-5A can minimize inflammation associated with diseases like asthma, colitis and chronic kidney disease. This study will evaluate how well you tolerate a single dose of Fx-5A when given through an IV and how safe it is to use in healthy individuals.
