    • Investigational agents (small molecules and oligonucleotides), vaccines, or invasive medical devices within 28 days (4 weeks, or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer) prior to enrollment or having received a biological product within 6 months prior to enrollment.

Other illness

  • History of significant hypersensitivity to products related to DF-003 (including excipients of the formulations) as well as severe hypersensitivity reactions (like angioedema) to any drugs.
  • Moderate or severe hepatic impairment (categorized as Child-Pugh class B and C, respectively, on the Child-Pugh Score for Cirrhosis Mortality)

Lab values

  • Recent (within 3 months prior to screening) or acute changes in the following laboratory values:
    • Platelet count ≤ 120,000/mm3, or
    • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \> ULN
    • Bilirubin (total, direct) \> ULN or
    • International Normalization Ratio (INR) \> ULN, or
    • Serum albumin less than the lower limit of normal, or
    • Estimated creatinine clearance \< 70 mL/min/1.73 m2 at Screening, calculated by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula, or
    • Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) \> 8%.

Who the study is looking for

  • Sufficient understanding of the purpose and procedures required for the study.
  • Body mass index (BMI) of 18.0 to 35.0 kg/m2, inclusive.
  • Genetic testing for ALPK1 mutations that has been shown to be associated with ROSAH syndrome (e.g. T237M or Y254C, or T237A mutations).
  • Signs of uveitis (anterior and/or posterior) in the eye (e.g. macula edema, optic nerve edema, retinal vasculitis, or retinal vascular leakage).
  • Patients must be deemed healthy except for diagnosis of ROSAH syndrome and its clinical manifestation.
  • Patients must be at least 18 years of age but no older than 65 years of age at the time of Screening.
