Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: In stage A, the primary objective is: - To compare the relative bioavailability of a single dose of 300 mg LX6171 using a 40mg/mL and an 80mg/mL formulated suspension; - To evaluate plasma concentrations of LX6171 and its major metabolite LP-523122 after a single 300 mg administration of LX6171 oral suspension at two concentrations (40 mg/mL and 80 mg/mL), in order to determine doses to be utilized over a 28 day period (see stage B). In stage B, the primary objective is: - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of 2 dose levels LX6171 oral suspension when administered for 28 days, in subjects exhibiting AAMI;Secondary Objective: In stage A, the secondary objective is: - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single doses of 300 mg of LX6171 utilizing two different concentrations of oral suspension (40 mg/mL and 80 mg/mL) in healthy elderly subjects In stage B, the secondary objective is: - To evaluate effects of multiple doses of LX6171 oral suspension on cognition in subjects exhibiting AAMI; - To evaluate plasma concentrations of LX6171 and its major metabolite LP-523122 after administration of LX6171 oral suspension for 28 days, in subjects exhibiting AAMI;Primary end point(s): Stage A and B: - pharmacokinetic characteristics - safety and tolerability Stage B: Weekly cognition will be assessed using the following instruments: - A standardized, validated cognitive assessment battery from Cognitive Drug Research (CDR) - Memory Assessment Clinics Self-Rating Scale (MAC-S) - Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) - One-Week Delayed Recall Test (OWDRT)
