A Study to Assess the Effects of Age and Gender on the Pharmacokinetics of JNJ-42847922 in Healthy Adults

Registration Number
NCT02837692
Lead Sponsor
Janssen Research & Development, LLC
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics of single-dose evening administration of JNJ-42847922 in elderly non-Asian adults compared with weight- and gender-matched young healthy non-Asian adults and to assess the pharmacokinetics of single-dose evening administration of JNJ-42847922 in healthy Japanese adults.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC [0-infinity]) of JNJ-42847922Day 1 (Pre-dose) up to Day 3

The AUC (0-infinity) is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinite time, calculated as the sum of AUC(last) and C(last)/lambda(z); wherein AUC(last) is area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable time, C(last) is the last observed quantifiable concentration, and lambda(z) is elimination rate constant.

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Infinite Time (AUC [0-last]) of JNJ-42847922Day 1 (Pre-dose) up to Day 3

The AUC (0-last) is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable time.

Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of JNJ-42847922Day 1 (Pre-dose) up to Day 3

The Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.
