Estimate

Drug RadProtect®

This study will evaluate RadProtect® at sequential, escalating dose levels. Once administration is given, study subjects will be followed during 24 hours of hospitalization according to the final injection timing. All subjects will need to return to the hospital for monitoring at 7+2 days after dosing, and follow-up visits by telephone at Day 3, Day 14+2, and Day 28+2 days will need to be conducted.

RadProtect® Experimental

RadProtect® is not a full-closed micelle, and uses ferrous iron to provide linkage between PEG-b-PGA and amifostine. Transferrin and other related proteins can chelate with ferrous iron and break the micelle releasing amifostine into the blood stream.
