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 evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the study medication) and pharmacodynamics (the study of the action or effects the study medication has on the body) of single- and multiple, escalating oral doses of JNJ-40411813.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a double-blind (neither physician nor participants knows the treatment that the participant receives), randomized (study medication is assigned by chance), placebo-controlled (an inactive substance is compared with a medication to test whether the medication has a real effect in a clinical study), single- and multiple ascending dose study. This study consists of 3 phases: screening phase, treatment phase, and follow-up phase. This study will be conducted in 2 cohorts (groups) (Cohort 1: JNJ-40411813 50 mg and Cohort 2: JNJ-40411813 100 mg) and each cohort consists of 2 periods (Period 1: single dose and Period 2: multiple doses). Approximately 36 participants will be enrolled in this study (18 participants will be enrolled in each cohort) to receive JNJ-40411813 or placebo in 2:1 ratio. If safety/tolerability and pharmacokinetic results profile is favorable for single dose of JNJ-40411813, multiple dose administration will follow. Safety will be evaluated by the assessment of adverse events, vital signs, schellong test (a test for circulatory function), 12-lead electrocardiogram, physical examination, neurological examination (to measure mental status, motor examination, reflexes, sensory, gait and cranial nerves), vertigo (giddiness) symptom, and clinical laboratory tests which will be monitored throughout the study. The total duration of study participation for a participant will be 9 weeks.
