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 effects of the study medication, saracatinib/AZD0530 (placebo or 125 mg/day) on alcohol drinking behavior in a laboratory setting in which participants are given an initial drink of alcohol followed by the choice to drink up to 12 more drinks over a three-hour period. The investigators hypothesize that saracatinib will reduce craving and number of drinks consumed prior to and after exposure to the initial drink of alcohol and during the three hour drinking period.
