A Study To Assess Effects Of PF-04958242 On Bold Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging During Working Memory Activation And Arterial Spin Labeling At Rest In Healthy Subjects

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Healthy Volunteer
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT01365338
Lead Sponsor
Biogen
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study aims to determine whether the drug affects brain activity in healthy volunteers, either when the participants are performing a memory task, or when lying at rest. Subjects will undergo a brain scan under both of these conditions after a dose of either the study drug or a placebo is administered.The secondary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the four doses of PF-04958242 administered orally to healthy adult participants.

Detailed Description

This study was previously posted by Pfizer, Inc. Sponsorship of the trial was transferred to Biogen.
