Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Safety variables (adverse events, vital signs, physical examination, telemetry, digital electrocardiograms (dECGs), safety 12-lead paper electrocardiograms (pECG), and clinical laboratory assessments) | Before, during and after dosing. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Pharmacokinetics: Plasma and urine concentrations of AZD7687 and plasma and urine pharmacokinetic parameters | Information will be collected from the time of day -2 throughout the study. |
| Pharmacodynamic Biomarker sampling: (Triacylglycerol in serum, triacylglycerol, diacylglycerol, insulin and free fatty acids in plasma. Triacylglycerol and diacylglycerol in adipose tissue) | Information will be collected from the time of day -2 throughout the study. |
| Genetic: Blood sampling at one occasion during the study. | Once during study |
