Treatment and study plan

AZD9056

Drug

Oral tablet, 800mg, one single administration

Placebo

Drug

Single dose

Primary outcomes

  1. The effect of a single dose of AZD9056 (800mg) on retinal function will be assessed by Electroretinography

    Time frame: Electroretinography measurements will be performed at baseline, 6 hours post dosing at both treatment and crossover placebo treatment visits, and at post study medical follow up visits.

Secondary outcomes

  1. The effect of a single dose of AZD9056 (800mg) on retinal function will be assessed by measurements of visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and colour vision.

    Time frame: Visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and colour vision measurements will be performed at a training visit, at baseline, 2.5 hours post dosing at both treatment and crossover placebo treatment visits, and at post study medical follow up visits.

  2. The effect of a single dose of AZD9056 (800mg) on occipital function will be assessed by measurements of visual evoked potential.

    Time frame: Visual evoked potential measurements will be performed at a training visit, at baseline, 4 hours post dosing at both treatment and crossover placebo treatment visits, and at post study medical follow up visits.

  3. The effect of a single dose of AZD9056 (800mg) on cognitive function will be assessed by psychomotor testing.

    Time frame: Psychomotor testing will be performed at a training visit, at baseline, 8.5 and 24 hours post dosing at both treatment and crossover placebo treatment visits, and at post study medical follow up visits.
