Brief summary

The main purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) of AZD5004 administered as multiple oral doses in healthy participants and to compare the relative bioavailability of two oral tablet strengths of AZD5004.

Detailed description

This study comprises of 2 parts - Part A and Part B. Part A is a placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, efficacy, tolerability, and PK of repeated dosing of AZD5004 compared with placebo. Participants who are eligible according to the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be randomized to receive AZD5004 or matching placebo. Part A will comprise: 1. A Screening Period of maximum 28 days. 2. A Treatment Period of 106 days. 3. A final Follow-up Visit approximately 14 days after the last study intervention administration. Part B is a two-way cross-over study to compare the relative bioavailability of 2 oral tablet strengths of Formulation 1 (F1) of AZD5004. The purpose of this study is to expand product knowledge between the 2 oral tablet strengths on plasma exposure levels to guide Phase 3 drug product development. The participants will be split into 2 groups. Group 1 will be dosed with Treatment 1 of AZD5004 and then dosed with Treatment 2 of AZD5004. Group 2 will be dosed with Treatment 2 of AZD5004 and then dosed with Treatment 1 of AZD5004. Part B of the study will comprise: 1. A Screening Period of maximum 28 days. 2. Two Treatment Periods, each consisting of 7 days. 3. A final Follow-up Visit approximately 6 days after the last dose of study intervention administration.

Interventions

Participants will receive oral tablets of AZD5004 in Part A and Part B of the study as per arms they are assigned.

DRUGPlacebo

Placebo will be administered as an oral tablet once daily.

Part B: Maximum observed plasma (peak) drug concentration (Cmax) of AZD5004From Day 1 (Treatment Period 1) to Day 13 (end of Treatment Period 2)To evaluate the Cmax of 2 treatments of AZD5004 in healthy participants.
Part B: Area under the concentration-curve from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration (AUClast)From Day 1 (Treatment Period 1) to Day 13 (end of Treatment Period 2)To evaluate the AUClast of 2 treatments of AZD5004 in healthy participants.
Part B: Area under concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUCinf)From Day 1 (Treatment Period 1) to Day 13 (end of Treatment Period 2)To evaluate the AUCinf of 2 treatments of AZD5004 in healthy participants.
Part B: Time to reach maximum observed concentration (tmax)From Day 1 (Treatment Period 1) to Day 13 (end of Treatment Period 2)To evaluate the tmax of 2 treatments of AZD5004 in healthy participants.
