About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-Label, Positron Emission Tomography Study in Healthy Subjects to Determine D-Amino Acid Oxidase Brain Enzyme Occupancy of TAK-831 After Single-Dose Oral Administration in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between TAK-831 dose, plasma exposure, extent and duration of brain D-amino acid oxidase (DAO) enzyme occupancy following single oral dosing of TAK-831 in healthy participants.

Read the detailed description

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-831. TAK-831 is a highly selective and potent inhibitor of DAO, a peroxisomal enzyme active towards neutral D-amino acids which potentially effects cerebellar dysfunction. This study will look at the relationship between TAK-831 plasma exposure and the extent and duration of brain DAO enzyme occupancy after single oral dosing of TAK-831 in healthy male participants using [18F]PGM299 radioactive tracer injection and PET imaging.

The study will enroll up to 22 participants in two different sets. Up to 16 participants will be enrolled in Set A. Within that total, up to 5 dose levels of TAK-831 may be evaluated, with up to 6 participants per dose level, although typically, there will be 2 to 3 participants per dose level. All participants in Set A will also receive up to 3 doses of [18F]PGM299. Up to 6 participants will be enrolled in Set B. All participants in Set B will be assigned to single treatment group to receive 2 doses of [18F]PGM299.

All participants in Set A will be asked to take single oral dose of TAK-831 suspension on Day 1. In Set A, each of the participant will receive a maximum of 3 PET scans with [18F]PGM299; 1 at baseline 2 following a single oral dose of TAK-831 on Days 1 and 2. In Set B, each of the participant will receive 2 PET scans with [18F]PGM299 on Days 1 and 10. Set B will be conducted after the confirmation of blockade of [18F]PGM299 binding by TAK-831 in 2 to 4 participants of Set A.

This multi-center trial will be conducted in the United Kingdom. The overall time to participate in this study is 62 days. Participants in Set A will make 4 visits to the clinic, and participants in Set B will make 3 visits to the clinic and all will be contacted by telephone on Day 15 (Set A) and Day 12 (Set B) of treatment period for a follow-up assessment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Total Volume of Distribution (VT) of [18F]PGM299 in the Cerebellar Grey Matter (GM) for Each PET Scan

    Measured: Set A: Baseline (PET scan 1), 2 hours (PET scan 2) and 26 hours (PET scan 3) post-TAK-831 dose; Set B: Day 1 (PET scan 1) and Day 10 (PET scan 2)

  2. Non-displaceable Binding Potential (BPND) of [18F]PGM299 in the Cerebellar GM for Each PET Scan

    Measured: Set A: Baseline (PET scan 1), 2 hours (PET scan 2) and 26 hours (PET scan 3) post-TAK-831 dose; Set B: Day 1 (PET scan 1) and Day 10 (PET scan 2)

  3. D-amino Acid Oxidase (DAO) Occupancy Estimation in the Cerebellar GM

    DAO occupancy is calculated as percent difference between baseline and postdose [18F]PGM299 BPND for each participant.

    Measured: Set A: Baseline (PET scan 1), 2 hours (PET scan 2) and 26 hours (PET scan 3) post-TAK-831 dose; Set B: Day 1 (PET scan 1) and Day 10 (PET scan 2)

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Set A: EC50- Plasma Concentration of TAK-831 That Corresponds to 50 Percent (%) DAO Brain Enzyme Occupancy in Cerebellum

    EC50 was obtained from global VT model. The affinity constant relating plasma concentration of TAK-831 to DAO occupancy (EC50) was estimated by fitting the PET and plasma concentration data (VT, Cp). It was calculated as VT= VsBase (EC50/EC50+Cp) + VND, where Vs Base was the group-level (global) volume of distribution of the specific binding in the target region (cerebellar GM) and VND was the volume of distribution of the non-displaceable component (non-specific bound and free radiotracer) of the target region.

    Measured: Set A: Baseline, 2 and 26 hours post-TAK-831 dose

  2. Set A: Dose of TAK-831 That Corresponds to 50% DAO Brain Enzyme Occupancy in Cerebellum

    Dose of TAK-831 that corresponds to 50% DAO brain enzyme occupancy in cerebellum at the time of maximum observed plasma concentration (Tmax) of TAK-831 was estimated.

    Measured: Set A: At 2 and 26 hours post-TAK-831 dose

  3. Set B: Coefficient of Variation (CoV) of [18F]PGM299 Binding in Healthy Human Brain

    CoV was calculated as COV (P)(%) = 100 * mean/ standard deviation, where P was different participant scanned under baseline condition.

    Measured: Set B: Baseline up to Day 10

  4. Set A: Plasma Concentrations of TAK-831 During Each Post-TAK-831 Dosing PET Scan Periods

    Measured: Set A: Days 1 and 2 At time 0 (at tracer injection), 60 minutes after tracer injection and 120 minutes after tracer injection for each post TAK-831 dosing PET scan period

  5. Set A: Percent Change From Baseline to Post-TAK-831 Dose in AUEC(0-24)Serine: Area Under the Effect-time Curve From Time 0 to 24 Hours Post-TAK-831 Dose for Dextro-serine (D-serine) and Levo-serine (L-serine)

    Measured: Set A: Baseline, 24 hours post-TAK-831 dose

  6. Set A: Percent Change From Baseline to Post-TAK-831 Dose in AUEC(0-24)Serine: Area Under the Effect-time Curve From Time 0 to 24 Hours Post-TAK-831 Dose for Ratio of D-serine to Total Serine

    Measured: Set A: Baseline, 24 hours post-TAK-831 dose

  7. Set A: Percent Change in Maximum Drug-induced Effect (Emax,Serine) on Change in Plasma Concentrations of D-serine and L-serine

    Measured: Set A: Baseline, 24 hours post-TAK-831 dose

  8. Set A: Percent Change in Maximum Drug-induced Effect (Emax, D: Total Serine Ratio) on the Ratio of D-serine to Total Serine

    Measured: Set A: Baseline, 24 hours post-TAK-831 dose

  9. Set A: Time to Reach the Maximum PD Effect (Time to Emax,Serine) for D-serine and L-serine

    Measured: Set A: Day -1 At 1, 4 and 12 hours post check-in and Day 1 pre-dose and at multiple time points (up to 24 hours) post-TAK-831 dose

  10. Set A: Time to Reach the Maximum PD Effect (Time to Emax,Serine) for Ratio of D-serine to Total Serine

    Measured: Set A: Day -1 At 1, 4 and 12 hours post check-in and Day 1 pre-dose and at multiple time points (up to 24 hours) post-TAK-831 dose
