Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This is a Phase 1, randomised, open label study designed to evaluate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of SION-451, and the bioequivalence of a solid oral formulation compared to an oral suspension.

This study will include a Screening Period, a Treatment Period, and an End of Study (EoS) visit. Participants to be included in this study will be healthy male and female adults 18 to 55 years of age, inclusive, with no clinically significant concomitant medical conditions and who are not taking any concomitant medications. All potential participants will be screened a maximum of 28 days (Day -28) prior to check-in (Day -1) to assess their eligibility to enter the study and dosing will be initiated on Day 1. This study will be open label.

Participants will be admitted to the CRU on Day -1. On the following morning (Day 1), each participant will be randomised to 1 of 3 open-label SION-451 treatment sequences (each consisting of 3 separate dose periods that will be given in a pre-specified order) and will receive the first dose of SION-451 in Period 1, dose to be determined (TBD); a dose not exceeding 750mg will be selected at or below a dose that has been safe and well tolerated in the prior single ascending dose (SAD) study. Following a washout period of at least 72 hours (actual duration will be determined prior to the start of this study, participants will receive the second dose of SION-451 in Period 2 of the sequence (Day 5). Following a washout period of at least 72 hours (actual duration will be determined prior to the start of this study), participants will receive the third dose of SION 451 in Period 3 of the sequence (Day 9). The day of dosing in Periods 2 and 3 will be adjusted if needed, to enable the washout period. Approximately 8 to 12 participants per cohort will be enrolled in this study. It may include up to 2 cohorts at 2 dose levels using doses equal to or less than doses that have been tested (in the prior SAD study) and found to be safe and well tolerated. In each dose period participants will receive one of the following treatments: Treatment 1 a single oral dose of SION-451 given as a tablet under fasted conditions. Treatment II a single oral dose of SION-451 given as a suspension under fasted conditions (as above) and Treatment III, a single oral dose given as a tablet dosed 30 minutes after the start of a standardised high-fat meal.
For the fasted dosing in Treatment I and II participants will be fasted for at least 10 hours pre-dose and 4 hours post-dose (if dose 1), or for 2 hours pre-dose and 2 hours post dose (if subsequent dose) depending on the treatment sequence. In Treatment III the high fat meal will consist of the following with no substitutions:
o 2 eggs fried in butter
o 2 strips of bacon
o 2 slices of toast with butter
o 227 grams of hash brown potatoes
o 236 mls of whole milk
Participants need to consume at least 75% of the high fat meal.

Participants will remain at the CRU for at least 72 hours following administration of their last dose (Day 9) for safety monitoring and collection of blood samples for PK analysis. The duration of participant follow up will be extended as the study proceeds if needed based on emerging PK data. All participants will be contacted by telephone for an EoS visit 7 (±1) days after the last dose of study drug.

Clinical facility staff will administer the study drug only to participants included in the study following the procedures set out in the study protocol. Administration of study drugs will be recorded in the appropriate drug accountability records and the electronic case report form (eCRF). Administration of study drug will be verified by a second staff member. Each participant will be given only the study drug preparation carrying his/her study number.

Bio-equivalence
Statistical methods / analysis
The food effect and bioequivalence cohort(s) will be evaluated by analysis of variance, with terms for sequence, period, and treatment as fixed effects and participant within sequence as a random effect for the SION-451 parameters Cmax and AUC8 (or AUCt if AUC8 cannot be calculated). The exposure measurements (AUC and Cmax) will be log-transformed prior to analysis. For the assessment of food effect, the 90% confidence interval (CI) for the ratio of population geometric means between test (fed) and reference conditions (fasted) will be provided for AUCt, AUC8 and Cmax. For the assessment of bioequivalence, the 90% CI for the ratio of population geometric means between test (fasted tablet) and reference conditions (fasted suspension) will be provided for AUCt, AUC8 and Cmax.
