Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is; to determine the pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of ICA-105665 using the intradermal (ID) capsaicin model in healthy male subjects, and to investigate the effect of ICA-105665 on inflammatory hyperalgesia using the ultraviolet B (UV-B) model in healthy male subjects.

ICA-105665

Three study drug treatments will be used: ICA-105665, ibuprofen, and placebo (for both ICA-105665 and Ibuprofen). The order of study drug treatment given to each subject during each specified treatment period is determined at randomization.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

ICA-105665

Intervention Type DRUG

Subjects randomized to receive ICA -105665 will receive 200 mg BID

Ibuprofen

Three study drug treatments will be used: ICA-105665, ibuprofen, and placebo (for both ICA-105665 and Ibuprofen). The order of study drug treatment given to each subject during each specified treatment period is determined at randomization.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Ibuprofen

Intervention Type DRUG

Subjects randomized to receive Ibuprofen will receive placebo to ICA-105665 at all scheduled dosing times on Days 1 to 4 and a single dose of 800 mg Ibuprofen on the morning of Day 4.

Placebo

Three study drug treatments will be used: ICA-105665, ibuprofen, and placebo (for both ICA-105665 and Ibuprofen). The order of study drug treatment given to each subject during each specified treatment period is determined at randomization.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type DRUG

Subjects randomized to receive placebo will receive placebo to ICA

-105665 at all scheduled dosing times on Days 1 to 4 and placebo to Ibuprofen on the morning of Day 4.
