Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this clinical study in healthy participants is to investigate the safety and tolerability of GRT0151Y after multiple oral intake of different increasing doses and to evaluate the pharmacological effects (action of the compound) by means of pupillometry (measuring the pupil size of the eye) and Cold Presser Test (measuring the pain when immersing the hand in 2 degree Celsius cold water). An additional aim of the study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics of GRT0151Y (how it is taken up into the body and how it is excreted from the body)."

• Marked repolarisation abnormality (e.g. suspicious or definite congenital long QT syndrome) or co-medication that is known to influence cardiac repolarisation substantially.

• History of seizures or at risk (epilepsy in family anamnesis, unclear loss of consciousness), head trauma requiring hospitalization.

• Neurotic personality, psychiatric illness or suicide risk.

• History of orthostatic hypotension.

• Bronchial asthma.

• Definite or suspected history of drug allergy or hypersensitivity.

• History of Raynaud´s disease or phenomenon.

• Malignancy.

• Participation in another clinical study within three month prior to the start of this study (exception: characterization of metabolizer status).

• Blood donation (more than 100 Milliliter(s) or a comparable blood loss within three month prior to the start of this study.

• Excessive consumption of food or beverages containing caffeine or other xanthines (more than 1000 Milliliter(s) coffee or equivalent per day) within two weeks prior to the start of this study.

• Evidence of alcohol, medication or drug abuse.

• Smokers who are not able to abstain from smoking during the hospitalisation.

• Intake of drugs that are inhibitors of CYP2D6 isoenzyme within the last 4 weeks prior to the start of this study. Use of any other medication within two weeks prior to the start of the study (self-medication or prescription), if not on a stable basis and known to interfere with study objectives.

• Known or suspected of not being able to comply with the study protocol or of not being able to communicate meaningfully with the investigator and staff.

• Opinion of the investigator the volunteer should not participate in the study.

• Pregnant or breastfeeding.
