A Phase 1 Positron Emission Tomography Study to Measure Cholesterol 24S-Hydroxylase Target Occupancy of TAK-935

Epilepsy Clinical Trial

Official title: An Open-Label, Positron Emission Tomography, Phase 1 Study With [18F]MNI-792 to Determine Cholesterol 24S-Hydroxylase Target Occupancy of TAK-935 After Single-Dose Oral Administration in Healthy Subjects.

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the brain cholesterol 24S-hydroxylase (CH24H) enzyme occupancy of TAK-935 after single oral dose in healthy participants using the positron emission tomography (PET) ligand [18F]MNI-792 and PET imaging and to determine the relationship of occupancy to TAK-935 exposure.

Clinical Trial Description

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-935. TAK-935 is being tested to examine the degree and duration of brain CH24H enzyme occupancy/target engagement as a function of TAK-935 plasma concentration in order to guide dosing and schedule for future clinical trials with TAK-935.This study will utilize the PET ligand [18F]MNI-792 to evaluate the brain CH24H occupancy of TAK-935 after single dose oral administration in healthy adult participants. The study will evaluate up to 16 participants. The first 2 participants will take TAK-935 600 mg oral solution and undergo PET imaging using tracer [18F]MNI-792 up to 5 microgram (up to 370 MBq), injection, intravenously prior to each PET scan at Baseline, 45 minutes and 10 hours post-TAK-935 dose. TAK-935 dose and timing of post-dose scans for subsequent participants will be based on the data from the previous participants. This single-center trial will be conducted in the United States. The overall time to participate in this study is up to 55 days. Participants will make 4 visits to the clinic, including 2 confinement periods to the clinic for PET imaging. Participants will be contacted by phone on Day 22 for follow-up safety assessments. ;
