Number of participants with Adverse Events, as a measure of safety and tolerability
AE reports include a description of the AE, date and time of onset and resolution, intensity, and relationship to IMP.
Time frame: From signing of informed consent up to 30 days after the final visit
Changes in Safety Lab parameters as a measure of safety and tolerability
Hematology, clinical chemistry, urinalysis
Time frame: Screening, Day-1, at select dosing days, and at 5 to 7 days post dose for single doseand 15 to 17 days post first dose in multiple dosing.
Changes in vital signs as a measure of safety and tolerability
Pulse rate,body temperature,blood pressure, and orthostatic changes.
Time frame: Screening, Day-1, at select dosing days and at 5 to 7 days post dose for single dose, and 15 to 17 days post first dose in multiple dosing.
Changes in 12-lead electrocardiograms as a measure of safety and tolerability
Change in ECG parameters
Time frame: Screening, pre-dose, at select dosing days and at 5 to 7 days post dose for single dose,and 15 to 17 days post first dose in multiple dosing.
Pharmacokinetic measures in plasma as measured by Peak plasma concentration (Cmax)
Peak plasma concentration (Cmax), time at occurrence of Cmax (tmax), Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) 0-t, 0- infinity, percent of AUC 0-infinity, Cmax normalized by dose, AUC 0-t normalized for dose.
Time frame: Pre-dose, multiple time points to 24h, at select dosing days, and 5 to 7 days post dosefor single dose,and 15 to 17 days post first dose in multiple dosing.
Pharmacokinetic measures in cerebro spinal fluid (CSF) in young males as measured by max observed CSF (Cmax CSF)
This platform is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Maximum observed CSF concentration (Cmax CSF), area under the CSF concentration versus time
Time frame: Part 1 - 1h, 2h,3h post dose
Pharmacokinetic measures to assess the food effect as measured by ANOVA
Food effect analysis will be based on analysis of variance (ANOVA) for treatment differences.
Time frame: Pre-dose, multiple time points to 24h, and at 12h, 24h and 5 to 7 days post dose.
Pharmacodynamic response as measured by pupillometry
Changes in average pupil diameter as measured in 3 different conditions of lux.
Time frame: Multiple time points Day1 to 6h post dose Part 1 only.
Pharmacokinetic measures in urine in young males and elderly male and female subjects as measured by amount of urine excreted at collection intervals
Amount excreted in urine at each collection interval (Ae1-t2) all parts. Cumulative amount excreted to 12h and 24h (Ae0-t) depending on Part. Cumulative urine excreted of unchanged drug to 24h (Fe%) and to 12h depending on Part. Volume of urine collected during each collection interval (Vur), and renal clearance (CLr) all parts
Time frame: Pre-dose,multiple 4h collection intervals to 24h post dose on select dosing days to Day 10 for multiple dosing.
Pharmacodynamic response as measured by Bond and Lader visual analogue scale
Changes in 3 factor scores (Alertness, Contentedness and Calmness) which will be derived from the individual VAS scores
Time frame: Day 1 at multiple timepoints to 24h post dose.
Pharmacodynamic response as measured by changes in qEEG and Event Related Potentials (ERP)
qEEg and ERP (P50 sensory gating, Mismatch Negativity and P300)
Time frame: Screening, Day-1, Day 4, Day 9 multiple dosing regimen only
