- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The effect of a single dose of AZD9056 (800mg) on retinal function will be assessed by Electroretinography Electroretinography measurements will be performed at baseline, 6 hours post dosing at both treatment and crossover placebo treatment visits, and at post study medical follow up visits.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The effect of a single dose of AZD9056 (800mg) on retinal function will be assessed by measurements of visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and colour vision. Visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and colour vision measurements will be performed at a training visit, at baseline, 2.5 hours post dosing at both treatment and crossover placebo treatment visits, and at post study medical follow up visits. The effect of a single dose of AZD9056 (800mg) on occipital function will be assessed by measurements of visual evoked potential. Visual evoked potential measurements will be performed at a training visit, at baseline, 4 hours post dosing at both treatment and crossover placebo treatment visits, and at post study medical follow up visits. The effect of a single dose of AZD9056 (800mg) on cognitive function will be assessed by psychomotor testing. Psychomotor testing will be performed at a training visit, at baseline, 8.5 and 24 hours post dosing at both treatment and crossover placebo treatment visits, and at post study medical follow up visits.
