Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- To assess the safety and tolerability of a single intravenous dose of AZD9742 in healthy elderly adults. [The screening period is up to 28 days. Residential period will be a total of 5 days. Follow up will occur between 5 and 10 days after discharge.]
Adverse events, vital signs, electrocardiograms, telemetry, physical exams, and clinical laboratory assessments will be assessed prior to, during, and after treatment
Secondary Outcome Measures
- To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of a single intravenous dose of AZD9742 in healthy elderly volunteers [Blood and urine samples will be collected for the 4 days while in residence.]
