A Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability and Effects of Single Ascending Doses of ASP3652 in Healthy Subjects

Each subject receives 3 single ascending doses of ASP3652 and a single dose of matching placebo during one randomly selected investigational period. Randomization is conducted separately for males and females.

The washout period between dosing occasions is at least 7 days. Screening takes place from Day -22 to Day -2. Subjects are admitted to the clinic in the afternoon of Day -1 of investigational period 1, 2, 3 and 4 for pre-dose assessments.

On Day -1 of all investigational periods, subjects do not take any food or drink for at least 10 hours before the anticipated dosing time on Day 1. For the duration of their stay in the clinic, subjects are not allowed to consume caffeine or other xanthine-containing drinks.

The subjects are discharged on Day 4 of each investigational period. The End of Study Visit (ESV) is planned to take place 7-14 days after early discharge or after Day 4 of investigational period 4.

Inclusion criteria

• Subject is white and of Caucasian origin.
• Body Mass Index more than or equal to 18.5 and less than 30.0kg/m2.
• Male subject must agree to practice an adequate contraceptive method with female sexual partners to prevent pregnancy.
• Female subject must agree to practice an adequate contraceptive method with male sexual partners to prevent pregnancy.

Exclusion criteria

• Pregnancy within 6 months before screening assessment or breast feeding within 3 months before screening (for females subjects only).
• Known or suspected hypersensitivity to ASP3652, or any components of the formulation used.
• A mean QTc(F) interval of >430 ms (for males) and >450 ms (for females) after triplicate measurements, a history of unexplained syncope, cardiac arrest, unexplained cardiac arrhythmias or torsades de pointes, structural heart disease, or a family history of Long QT Syndrome (LQTS). In case of an abnormal QTc(F) interval, the assessment may be repeated once (in triplicate). If the QTc(F) interval exceeds the limits, two additional Electrocardiogram (ECG)s can be recorded and the average of the three QTc(F) values should be used to determine the subject's eligibility.
