About this study
The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-063. TAK-063 is being tested to find a well-tolerated dose and also to treat schizophrenia. This study will look at how well different doses of TAK-063 are tolerated in healthy people of Japanese descent and in people with stable schizophrenia.
Five dose levels will be examined, starting at the lowest, in each population with 10 participants in each dose level. These participants will be randomized to receive TAK-063 (8 subjects) and placebo (2 subjects) once daily (QD) for 7 days.
In total, approximately 60 participants will be enrolled in the study. This trial will be conducted in single site in the United States. The overall time to participate in this study is up to 42 days. Participants will make 2 visits to the clinic, including 8-10 days confinement to the clinic, and will be contacted by telephone 7 days after last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.
Dose escalation and the actual choice of the subsequent dose level will only occur following a review of the blinded data from the previous cohorts.

Exclusion criteria
All Participants:
- Has uncontrolled, clinically significant neurologic, cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, metabolic, gastrointestinal, or endocrine disease or other abnormality (other than the disease being studied), which may impact the ability of the participant to participate or potentially confound the study results.

- Intends to donate sperm during the course of this study or for 12 weeks after last dose.
- Has evidence of current cardiovascular, central nervous system, hepatic, hematopoietic disease, renal dysfunction, metabolic or endocrine dysfunction, serious allergy, asthma hypoxemia, hypertension, seizures, or allergic skin rash. There is any finding in the participant's medical history, physical examination, or safety laboratory tests giving reasonable suspicion of a disease that would contraindicate taking TAK-063, or a similar drug in the same class, or that might interfere with the conduct of the study. This includes, but is not limited to, peptic ulcer disease, seizure disorders, and cardiac arrhythmias.
Healthy Participants:
- Has a history or treatment of Axis I/II mental disorders according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition (DSM-IV) such as depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorders, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa or schizophrenia within the past 3 years.
- Has used nicotine-containing products (including but not limited to cigarettes, pipes, cigars, chewing tobacco, nicotine patch or nicotine gum) within 28 days prior to Check-in Day -1. Cotinine test is positive at Screening or Check-in (Day -1).
Participants with Stable Schizophrenia:
- Has a history of a primary DSM-IV axis I diagnosis other than schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder.
- Has not discontinued antipsychotic or other psychotropic medications or is unable to discontinue antipsychotic or other psychotropic medications at Day -7 (or five half-lives prior to Day -1).
- Is taking a concomitant medication for a medical condition at a stable dose or regimen for less than two months or is taking a concomitant medication for a medical condition for less than two months and for which the discontinuation for the study period is not medically permissible.

Primary outcomes
-
Percentage of Participants Who Experience at Least One Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) After 7 Days of Dosing
Time frame: Day 1 to Day 14
An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (eg, a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not it is considered related to the drug. A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug.
-
Percentage of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Safety Laboratory Tests
Time frame: Day 1 to Day 8
The percentage of participants with any markedly abnormal standard safety laboratory values, including hematology, serum chemistries, and urinalysis, during the treatment period.
-
Percentage of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Vital Sign Measurements
Time frame: Day 1 to Day 8
The percentage of participants who meet markedly abnormal criteria for vital signs, including oral body temperature, respiration rate, pulse, and resting blood pressure and after standing
-
Percentage of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Values of 12-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) Parameters
Time frame: Day 1 to Day 8
The percentage of participants who meet markedly abnormal criteria specified by the protocol and statistical analysis plan during the treatment period.
Secondary outcomes
-
Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration for TAK-063 and TAK-063 Metabolite M-I
Time frame: Days 1 and 7 pre-dose and multiple time-points post-dose (Up to 24 hours)
Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) is the peak plasma concentration of a drug after administration, obtained directly from the plasma concentration-time curve.
