  • Research summary

    The Sponsor is developing a new test medicine for the potential treatment of cognitive disorders (diseases which affect how the brain works), such as fragile X syndrome, a genetic disorder which may cause learning disabilities and cognitive impairment; and Alzheimer’s Disease, which causes the brain to shrink and die and is characterised by cognitive decline (for example, confusion or memory loss).\n\nThis single-part, healthy volunteer study will try to identify how the test medicine is taken up, broken down and removed from the body. To help investigate this, the test medicine is radiolabelled, which means that the test medicine has a radioactive component (carbon-14) which helps us to track where the test medicine is in the body. The safety and tolerability of the test medicine will also be studied.\nThis study will take place at one non-NHS site, and will consist of a single study period involving up to 6 male volunteers, aged between 30 to 65 years.\nOn Day 1, volunteers will receive a single oral dose of the radiolabelled test medicine in the fasted state (on an empty stomach).\nVolunteer’s blood, urine and faeces will be taken throughout the study for analysis of the test medicine and its breakdown products (metabolites) and for volunteer safety. \nVolunteers will remain in the clinical unit until Day 8, however if the relevant radioactivity criteria have not been met, volunteers may be required to remain at the clinic until Day 15. If relevant criteria have not been met at this point, home collections of urine and/or faeces may be required. \nVolunteers are expected to be involved in this study for approximately 6 weeks from screening to discharge.
