A Study of Danavorexton in Anesthetized Adults

The drug being tested in this study is called danavorexton or TAK-925. Danavorexton is being tested to evaluate safety, tolerability, PK, and pharmacodynamics (PD) in healthy participants.

The study will enroll approximately 28 participants. This study consists of 4 cohorts: Cohorts A1, A2, A3 and P (healthy participants aged 18 to 55 years). In each of the 4 cohorts, participants will be randomly assigned (by chance) to receive danavorexton or danavorexton placebo-matching -which will remain undisclosed to the participant and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need):

• Cohort A1: Danavorexton Low Dose
• Cohort A2: Danavorexton Middle Dose
• Cohort A3: Danavorexton High Dose
• Cohort P: Danavorexton TBD

Additional optional cohorts may be added to the study based on the outcomes from the mandatory cohorts described above.

This trial will be conducted in the United States. The overall time to participate in this study is 37 days including screening period, residential period, and safety follow up period. A follow-up visit by phone or video will be conducted on Day 7.
