Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to estimate phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) occupancy in brain following a single dose of TAK-063.

Detailed Description

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-063. TAK-063 is was tested to estimate phosphodiesterase10A (PDE10A) occupancy in the brain following a single dose of TAK-063. This study used positron emission tomography (PET) scans to look at changes in the volume of tissue distribution before and after TAK-063 administration to calculate PDE10A occupancy in the brain.

The study enrolled 13 participants. Participants were assigned to a treatment group based on an enrollment schedule. The first 4 participants were assigned to the Pilot Cohort and received one dose of TAK-063 30 mg or 1000 mg tablets. The remaining participants were enrolled into the Main Cohort and received one dose of TAK-063 at 3, 10, 30 or 100 mg. Participants in both cohorts also received 3 separate intravenous infusions of [^11C]T-773 <8 μg; 400MBq ± 10% followed by a PET scan.

This single-centre trial was conducted in Sweden. The overall time to participate in this study was 46 days. Participants made 3 visits to the clinic, including one 3-day period of confinement to the clinic. Participants were contacted by phone on Day 16 for follow-up safety assessments.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

1. Has never previously participated in a positron emission tomography (PET) study (lifetime).

2. In the opinion of the investigator, the participant is capable of understanding and complying with protocol requirements.

3. The participant, informed consent form and any required privacy authorization prior to the initiation of any study procedures.

4. Is a healthy adult male, as determined by a physician based upon medical history and physical examination findings at Screening.

5. Is aged 20 to 45 years, inclusive, at the time of informed consent.

6. Weighs at least 50 kg and less than 100 kg and has a body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 32 kg/m^2 inclusive at Screening.

7. A male participant who is nonsterilized and sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential agrees to use adequate contraception from signing of informed consent throughout the duration of the study and for 12 weeks after last dose.

8. Has clinical laboratory evaluations (including clinical chemistry, hematology and complete urinalysis) within the reference range for the testing laboratory, unless the results are deemed not to be clinically significant (CS) by the investigator or sponsor at screening. Participants must have normal hemoglobin levels.

9. Has a normal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan or findings that are deemed not clinically significant at screening (the MRI scan may be performed on a day after other screening activities have been performed but before dosing).

Exclusion Criteria

1. Has received any investigational compound within 90 days prior to Screening.

2. Has received TAK-063 in a previous clinical study or as a therapeutic agent.

3. Is an immediate family member, study site employee, or in a dependant relationship with a study site employee who is involved in the conduct of this study (eg, spouse, parent, child, sibling) or may consent under duress.

4. Has uncontrolled, clinically significant neurologic, cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, metabolic, gastrointestinal, urologic, immunologic, endocrine disease, or psychiatric disorder, or other abnormality, which may impact the ability of the participant to participate or potentially confound the study results.

5. Has a known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation of TAK-063 or [^11C]T-773.

6. Has a positive urine drug result for drugs of abuse or a positive breathalyzer test for alcohol at Screening or Day -1.

7. Has a history of drug abuse (defined as any illicit drug use) or a history of alcohol abuse within 1 year prior to the screening visit or is unwilling to agree to abstain from alcohol until discharge from the Phase 1 unit and drugs throughout the study.
