Research summary
S 38093 is an Antagonist of histamine H3 type receptors, and is being developed for the treatment of patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's Disease (AD).The current drugs on the market for patients with mild to moderate AD are AChEI (Acetylcholinstermse Inhibitors), which show a limited treatment response. S 38093 represents a novel Mechanism of action, leading to the release of both histamine and acetylcholine, via pre-synaptic H3 receptors. This study will be conducted in Japanese male subjects and will be in 3 parts: Part 1: Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, sequential design for increasing single doses. n=24 (3 groups of 8 subjects each). Part 2: Open labelled, not placebo controlled. n=6. Part 3: Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, sequential design - multiple dosing. n=8.
