Basmisanil Positron Emission Tomography Study in Japanese Volunteers

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Healthy Volunteer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02534207
Lead Sponsor
Hoffmann-La Roche
Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the relationship between basmisanil plasma concentrations and the occupancy of Gamma-Amino Butyric Acid A (GABAA) receptor subtypes containing an alpha5 (α5) subunit in healthy Japanese volunteers. Each participant will have two post-screening imaging sessions. In the first imaging session, participants will have a baseline Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan. In the second imaging session, participants will receive a single oral dose of basmisanil, followed by two on-treatment PET scans at about 4 and 10 hours post-dose.
