About this trial
This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single ascending doses (SAD) and multiple ascending doses (MAD) of AZD4248 administered as an oral solution and intravenous (IV) infusion. Additionally, the study investigates the non-interventional feasibility of home measurement of serum creatinine in participants with diabetic kidney disease (DKD).

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Parts A, B, and C: Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
To assess the safety and tolerability of AZD4248 following single oral ascending doses or single IV administration to healthy participants and multiple oral ascending doses to healthy participants and participants with CKD and T2D (DKD).
Part D: Intra- and inter-participant variability of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) derived from home self-testing device measurements
To assess intra- and inter-participant variability of twice weekly home-based serum creatinine measurements.
Secondary outcomes
Area under concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUCinf)
To characterize the PK of AZD4248 following oral administration of single and multiple doses or a single IV administration of AZD4248. To assess the impact of food on the PK of AZD4248 following a single oral administration.
Area under concentration-curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable concentration (AUClast)
To characterize the PK of AZD4248 following oral administration of single and multiple doses or a single IV administration of AZD4248. To assess the impact of food on the PK of AZD4248 following a single oral administration.
Dose normalized AUClast (AUClast/D)
To characterize the PK of AZD4248 following oral administration of single and multiple doses or a single IV administration of AZD4248.
Dose normalized AUCinf (AUCinf/D)
To characterize the PK of AZD4248 following oral administration of single and multiple doses or a single IV administration of AZD4248.
