Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - PPI-668
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo

Experimental: Part I: single dose escalation in healthy volunteers - There will be three sequential single dose cohorts:

Cohort A: PPI-668 dose D1 or placebo

Cohort B: PPI-668 dose D2 or placebo

Cohort C: PPI-668 dose D3 or placebo

Experimental: Part I: multiple dose administration to healthy volunteers - Upon completion of the single dose escalation phase, an additional cohort will receive repeat doses:

Cohort D: highest well-tolerated dose from Cohorts A-C or placebo once daily for five days

Experimental: Part II: multiple dose escalation in HCV subjects - Upon completion of Part I, there will be 3, and potentially 4, sequential cohorts of HCV patients:

Cohort E (genotype-1): PPI-668 dose E1 or placebo

Cohort F (genotype-1): PPI-668 dose E2 or placebo

Cohort G (genotype-1): PPI-668 dose E3 or placebo

Cohort H (genotype-1): if necessary for dose-response assessment; dose to be determined

Cohort I (genotype-2 or -3): PPI-668 dose E4 or placebo

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
In order to participate in the study, volunteers for Part I and patients for Part II must meet all of the following key entry criteria, as well as other entry criteria specified in the full protocol:

Key Inclusion Criteria

1. Male or female, between 18 and 65 years of age. Female patients must be surgically sterile or two years post-menopausal.
2. Body Mass Index (BMI) 18 - 35 kg/m2
3. In good health, in the judgment of the Principal Investigator
4. Able and willing to comply with all protocol requirements and to sign an informed consent.

Key
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
65 Years
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
Yes
Key exclusion criteria
1. Seropositive for HIV antibody, or HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) at Screen. Volunteer subjects for Part I must also be negative for HCV antibody.
2. Any medical condition that may interfere with the absorption, distribution or elimination of study drug (PPI-668), or with the clinical and laboratory assessments in this study.
3. Poorly controlled or unstable hypertension; or sustained systolic BP > 150 or diastolic BP > 95 at Screen.
4. History of Diabetes Mellitus treated with insulin or hypoglycemic agents
5. History of alcohol abuse or illicit drug use which, in the investigator's judgment, could interfere with a patient's compliance, with the protocol requirements or with the safety or efficacy assessments of the study
6. History of malignancy unless the malignancy has been in complete remission and without additional medical or surgical interventions during the preceding three years
7. No clinically significant laboratory abnormalities at Screen for healthy volunteers in Part I. For Screen laboratory parameters for HCV patients in Part II, refer to the 'Additional Criteria for HCV Patients' below.

Additional Key Entry Criteria for HCV patients (Part II):

1. Clinical diagnosis of chronic hepatitis C, documented by:

1. Clinical findings compatible with chronic hepatitis C, and absence of other known liver disease
2. Seropositive for HCV antibody or HCV RNA at least once previously, and at Screen
3. Serum HCV RNA > 5 log10 IU/mL at Screen, by the PCR assay at the central study laboratory
4. HCV genotype-1 (1a or 1b, or non-subtypable genotype-1), or HCV genotype-2a or genotype-3a
2. ALT must be <5 x ULN at screen
3. No previous treatment with interferon, pegIFN, or ribavirin for genotype-1 patients
4. No history of signs or symptoms of decompensated liver disease
5. Any of the following laboratory values at Screening will be exclusionary for study participation:

* Hgb <11 g/dL in women or 12 g/dL in men.
* White blood cell count < 4,000/mm3.
* Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1800 per mm3.
* Platelet count < 100,000 per mm3.
* Serum creatinine >ULN at the central study laboratory.
* Serum albumin < 3.4 g/dL.
* Total bilirubin > 2.0 mg/dL
* Clinically significant abnormality in the electrocardiograms (ECGs) at Screen
