Brief Summary

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

The main aim is to evaluate the relative abuse potential of soticlestat in healthy adults who has used central nervous system (CNS) depressants for recreational nontherapeutic reasons.

Detailed Description

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

The drug being tested in this study is called soticlestat. Soticlestat is being tested in healthy participants. This study will assess the relative abuse potential of soticlestat compared to alprazolam and placebo in healthy adult, nondependent recreational drug users with CNS depressant experience. The study will enroll approximately 110 participants. Participants will be randomly (by chance, like flipping a coin) assigned to treatments of the study.

Treatment order will remain undisclosed to the participants and study doctor (unless there is an urgent medical need). This single center trial will be conducted in the United States. Participants will be followed up for up to 7 days after the last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment. The overall time to participate in this study is approximately 11 weeks.
