Brief Summary

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

This multi-center, randomized, double-blind study will evaluate exploratory biomarkers and the safety and tolerability of a single dose of RO5028442 in adult male high-functioning autistic patients. In a cross-over design, patients will be randomized to receive either a single dose of RO5028442 or matching placebo with a washout period of 7-14 days. Anticipated time on study is up to approximately 9 weeks.
