Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of JNJ-42847922 following single oral administration.

Detailed description

This is a single center, double-blind (neither the researchers nor the participants know what treatment the participant is receiving), placebo-controlled (an inactive substance; a pretend treatment \[with no drug in it\] that is compared in a clinical trial with a drug to test if the drug has a real effect), randomized (study medication assigned to participants by chance), single-ascending dose study. The study consists of a screening phase, an in-clinic treatment phase, and a follow-up phase. The study duration for each subject will be approximately 5 weeks from screening (Day -28 to Day -3), in-clinic period (Day -2 to Day 4) to follow up visit (Day 8). Participants will receive a single oral dose of JNJ-42847922 or placebo in 3 cohorts. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.

Interventions

Participants will receive single oral dose of 5 milligram (mg) of JNJ-42847922 on Day 1, fasted condition.

Participants will receive single oral dose of 20 mg of JNJ-42847922 on Day 1, fasted condition.

DRUGJNJ-42847922, 40 mg

Participants will receive single oral dose of 40 mg of JNJ-42847922 on Day 1, fasted condition.

DRUGPlacebo

Participants will receive placebo on Day 1, fasted condition in Cohort A, Cohort B and Cohort C.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)up to Day 8An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.
Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)up to Day 8An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.
