Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Clinically relevant disease and/or abnormalities (past or present) which in the opinion of the investigator, may either put the subject at risk to participate in the study or may influence the results of the study or the subject*s ability to participate in the study 2. Psychiatric, medical, and surgical history that may interfere with the objectives of the study 3. Subject*s partner is planning pregnancy within 3 months of last dosing 4. Significant illness, as judged by the investigator, within 2 weeks of the first study day 5. Clinically relevant abnormalities in physical examinations, vital signs, clinical chemistry, thyroid function test, hematology or urinalysis at screening as judged by the investigator and/or sponsor 6.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To investigate the pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of single oral doses of AZD7325 on sedation and cognition in comparison with lorazepam, a widely used non-selective GABA-A modulator for anxiolysis. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of AZD7325 by assessing adverse events, vital signs, laboratory parameters, and ECGs. 2. To measure the effects of single oral doses of AZD7325 with electroencephalogram (EEG) and to assess whether the EEG power spectral changes of AZD7325 seen in animal studies are observed in humans. 3. To determine the effects of single oral doses of AZD7325 on body sway and to compare its effects to those of lorazepam. 4. To investigate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of AZD7325 after single oral doses administration. Mathematical PK/PD modelling to correlate the relationships between plasma concentration and effects for changes in CNS measurements will be attempted. | — |
