1. Heart rate = 40 beats per minute
2. PR interval = 220 milliseconds (msec) (For PR, QRS and QTcF interval, and Q wave,
the mean of triplicate ECGs will be used)
3. Q waves < 50 msec (For PR, QRS and QTcF interval, and Q wave, the mean of
triplicate ECGs will be used)
4. QRS interval to be = 60msec and < 120msec (For PR, QRS and QTcF interval, and Q
wave, the mean of triplicate ECGs will be used)
5. The waveforms must enable the QT interval to be clearly defined
6. QTcF interval must be < 450msec (machine or manual reading).
- A signed and dated written informed consent obtained from participants capable of
giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and
restrictions listed in the consent form.

average weekly intake of >21 units for males or >14 units for females. One unit is
equivalent to 8 g of alcohol: a half-pint (~240 millilitre [ml]) of beer, 1 glass
(125ml) of wine or 1 (25 ml) measure of spirits.
- The participant has participated in a clinical trial and has received an
investigational product within the following time prior to the first dosing day in the
current study: 3 months, 5 half-lives or twice the duration of the biological effect
of the investigational product (whichever is longer).
- Exposure to more than four new chemical entities within 12 months prior to the first
dosing day.
- Use of the following medications within 7 days (or 14 days if the drug is a potential
enzyme inducer) or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of the
study medication: monoamine oxidase inhibitors (including linezolid), thioridazine,
pimozide, serotonergic drugs (including L-tryptophan, triptans, tramadol, selective
