Radiolabel Study In Healthy Volunteers For Insomnia-Targeting Drug

The purpose of this study is to define the absorption, breakdown and excretion of a single dose of radiolabelled SB-649868 and its breakdown products by measuring their concentration in blood, urine and faeces over a 7-10 day period. "Radiolabelled" means that the test drug has a radioactive component to help us track the drug. The safety and tolerability of the test drug will also be assessed.

Treatment and study plan

14C-SB649868

Drug

SB-649868 will be provided as powder in a bottle which will be reconstituted into a solution prior to dosing via a hard gelatin capsule. Each subject will receive one unit dose of SB-649868 30 milligram reconstituted powder presented in a size 00 capsule once. The capsule will be swallowed with 160 milliliters of water.

Primary outcomes

  1. Excretion of SB649868 by measuring radioactivity in urine and faeces

    Time frame: over 7-10 days.

  2. Plasma levels of SB-649868 by measuring drug levels and radioactivity in plasma. Plasma, urine,faeces samples to study the metabolites of SB649868.

    Time frame: over 4 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Safety and tolerability of 14C-SB649868 by adverse event monitoring, lab samples and cardiovascular monitoring.

    Time frame: over the course of the study
