Recruitment & Eligibility

• Status: ot Recruiting
• Sex: All
• Target Recruitment: 64

Inclusion Criteria

1. Males or females, aged 30-80 years.
2. Meet criteria for diagnosis of probable or possible MSA according to the consensus criteria (Gilman et al. 2008).
3. High-affinity binder” or mixed-affinity binder” for TSPO, confirmed by prospective genotyping of TSPO polymorphism.
4. Female subjects of childbearing potential must:
a. Have a negative serum ß-hCG pregnancy test result at screen and a negative urine ß-hCG test result at baseline, and
b. Agree not to become pregnant during participation in the study, and
c. Agree, if sexually active, to routinely use two methods of contraception during the study, for 40 days after the last dose of AZD3241, and for 3 months after the last administration of [11C]PBR28. One method must be a medically approved contraceptive. The other method must be condom use. Hormonal contraceptives sensitive to CYP3A4 induction are not permitted as a method of
contraception.
5. Postmenopausal females must have follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) = 38 mIU/mL at screen.
6. Males must agree to refrain from donating sperm during the study, for 100 days following the last dose of AZD3241, and for 3 months after the last administration of [11C]PBR28. Sexually active male subjects must:
a. Agree to use condoms during the study, for 100 days after the last dose of AZD3241, and for 3 months after the last administration of [11C]PBR28.
b. Agree to ensure that they and their partners are routinely using a
medically approved contraceptive method.
7. Medical treatment of MSA and co-morbid medical conditions must be
stable for at least 30 days prior to screen and between screen and
baseline (Day -1). Intermittently administered treatment may be
considered stable if the dose and dosing frequency have been unchanged
for the greater of 30 days or three dosing intervals (e.g., a treatment
given once a month must be at a stable dose and dosing frequency for 3
months).
8. Able to swallow tablets whole.
