AZD5069 Neutrophil Function Study

A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-Controlled, Two-way Cross-over, Single Centre Study in Healthy Subjects to Assess the Effect of Oral Dosing of AZD5069 on Neutrophil Number and Function in Peripheral Blood and the Ability to Recruit Neutrophils into the Circulation after Exercise and Subcutaneous

• Alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/aspartate aminotransferase (AST) level ≥1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening (Visit 2)
• Peripheral blood neutrophils above or below the laboratory reference range at screening (Visit 2) hsCRP above the upper limit of the laboratory reference range at Visit 2
