Healthy Volunteer
Conditions
Brief summary
This placebo-controlled, randomized, observer-blind, dose-ascending study will investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single and multiple doses of RO5271983 in healthy volunteers. Healthy volunteers will be randomized to receive either a single oral dose of RO5271983 or placebo in the SAD part or multiple oral doses of RO5271983 or placebo in the MAD part. The anticipated time on study treatment is approximately 14 weeks for the SAD part and up to 8 weeks for the MAD part.
Interventions
Once or twice daily doses of matching placebo to RO5271983 for 14 days
Single dose of matching placebo to RO5271983 for up to 3 periods
Once or twice daily doses of RO5271983 for 14 days
Single dose of RO5271983 at each period (for up to 3 periods)
