Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Healthy
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Drug: JNJ-54175446
Registration Number
NCT02933762
Lead Sponsor
Janssen Research & Development, LLC
Brief Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of JNJ-54175446 (dose response) on levels of Aβ fragments (Aβ1-42, Aβ1-40, Aβ1-38, Aβ1-37) in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), the effects of JNJ-54175446 on markers of (neuro) inflammation/protection in blood and CSF and the pharmacokinetics of JNJ-54175446 followed by single and multiple dose administration.
