NCT ID: NCT02169973

Last Updated: 2015-09-28

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED

• Total Enrollment: 15 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2014-02-28
• Study Completion Date: 2014-07-31

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to measure the uptake, distribution, and clearance of 11C-MK-3168 by Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan and to model the tissue specific kinetics of 11C-MK-3168 with the appropriate input function in human brain in Part A; to measure blocking of retention of 11C-MK-3168 at the estimated time to maximum plasma concentration after dosing (tmax) following each single oral doses of JNJ-42165279 and model the exposure/enzyme interaction of JNJ-42165279 in Part B; to measure the saturation of enzyme inhibition in the brain at steady state plasma concentrations of JNJ-42165279 (on Day 8) after 7 once-daily doses of JNJ-42165279 by conducting PET studies with 11C-MK-3168 at trough plasma concentrations on Day 2 in Part C.

Detailed Description

This is an open-label (both [participants and investigator] know what treatment participants will receive) study. This study consists of 3 consecutive parts: A, B, and C. Each part will consist of a screening phase (between 21 to 2 days prior to the study medication), a treatment phase (Part A: 1 day; Part B: 8 days; Part C: 8 days), and the end-of-study/ follow-up visit (within 5 to 7 days after last PET scan). In the treatment phase of the Part A, participants will undergo a baseline PET/computed tomography scan (after administration of 11C-MK-3168 on Day 1); In Part B, participants will undergo a baseline PET scan, followed by 2 post-treatment PET scans after 2 single doses of JNJ-42165279 on Days 1 and 8; in Part C, participants will undergo a baseline PET scan, followed by 2 post-treatment PET scans after 24 hours postdose of JNJ-42165279 on Days 1 and 7. Safety will be evaluated by the assessment of adverse events, vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiogram, clinical laboratory testing, physical examination (including weight and tympanic temperature [temperature measure in an ear]), and neurological examination. The total duration of study participation for a participant will be approximately 4 weeks for Part A and approximately 5 weeks for Parts B and C.
