Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Binding of PHNO, PET ligand, in each region of interest at each scan. [ Time Frame: up to 48 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Percentage of PHNO, PET ligand, occupancy in each region of interest after a single oral dose of GSK618334 for each individual. [ Time Frame: up to 48 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Time course of GSK618334 concentration in blood following a single oral dose. [ Time Frame: up to 48 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Adverse events and other safety assessments such as clinically relevant changes in electrocardiography (ECG); vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate); laboratory safety data and physical examination. [ Time Frame: screening to follow-up ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Measuring GSK618334 in the body (pharmacokinetic endpoints): PK parameters of GSK618334 Cmax, AUCinf, tmax. [ Time Frame: up to 48 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

D3 receptor antagonist

Detailed Description:

This imaging study will be an open label, non-randomised PET receptor occupancy study using healthy male volunteers. The time course and degree of D3 receptor occupancy (RO) after single doses of GSK618334 will be determined using 11C-PHNO as a PET ligand labeling dopamine receptor. The PK/PD relationship between plasma concentrations of GSK618334 and D3 RO will be described. Potential relationships between D3 RO and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) endpoints will be assessed as an exploratory aim.
