Trial design
CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding
Main objective
Scope: Pharmacodynamic, Dose response
To evaluate the CNS PD response to brexanolone using TMS-induced MEPs compared to the responses of placebo and lorazepam.
Secondary objectives 1
- To determine the effect of brexanolone compared to placebo and lorazepam in response to paired TMS pulses that capture intracortical circuitry modulation
Conditions and MedDRA coding
NA, PD study in Healthy Volunteers
Eligibility criteria
Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor
Inclusion criteria 3
- Participant is a healthy ambulatory male adult and has no clinically significant findings, as determined by the investigator, on physical examination, including neurologic and mental status examinations, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), or laboratory tests.
- Participant is ≥18 and ≤65 years of age at the time informed consent is obtained.
- Participant has a body weight ≥50 kg and body mass index (BMI) ≥18.0 and ≤33.0 kg/m2 at screening.
Exclusion criteria 4
- Participant has a significant history or presence of psychiatric or neurologic disease or condition (including, but not limited to, epilepsy, closed head trauma with clinically significant sequelae, partial onset seizures, eating disorders, etc.).
- Participant has a history of intracranial mass lesion, hydrocephalus, and/or clinically significant head injury or trauma that could increase the risk of applying TMS.
- Participant has metal objects in the brain or skull or has a cochlear implant/deep brain stimulation device.
- Participant currently takes any psychotropic medications, including antidepressants and anxiolytics.
Endpoints
Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)
Primary endpoints 1
