Study summary

The Sponsor is developing the test medicine, AZD5718, for the potential treatment of cardiovascular disease.

The study is an open-label, single dose study involving 6 healthy male subjects. The volunteers will receive a single dose of 200 mg radiolabelled AZD5718 (14C-AZD5718 Oral Suspension) containing not more than 9.9 MBq of radiocarbon.

Volunteers will attend the clinic for 9 days (Day -1 to Day 8) to receive a single dose of the test medicine. It is planned that the volunteers will be discharged as a group once all volunteers have reached the discharge criteria. This may result in the subjects being discharged as a group prior to completion of the planned residency period. If the discharge criteria are not met by volunteers by Day 8, the individual volunteers who have not met the criteria will remain in the clinical unit for a further 48 h (until Day 10).

A follow-up call will take place 7 to 10 days after discharge to ensure the ongoing wellbeing of volunteers.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  11. Plasma donation within 1 month of screening or any blood donation/loss of more than 500 mL of blood during the 3 months prior to screening.

These herbal medications include, but are not limited to, St. John's wort, kava, ephedra (ma huang), gingko biloba, dehydroepiandrosterone, yohimbe, saw palmetto, and ginseng. Subjects should stop using these herbal medications 14 days prior to administration of [14C]AZD5718.
  17. Use of any prescribed or nonprescribed medication including antacids, H2 antagonists, PPI, analgesics (other than paracetamol/acetaminophen up to 4 g/day), vitamins and minerals during the 14 days prior to administration of [14C]AZD5718 or longer if the medication has a longer half-life (see Section 11.4). Exceptions may apply on a case by case basis, if considered not to interfere with the objectives of the study, as agreed by the PI and sponsor's medical monitor.
  18. Known or suspected history of alcohol or drug abuse or regular alcohol consumption in males >21 units per week (1 unit = ½ pint beer, or a 25 mL shot of 40% spirit, 1.5 to 2 Units = 125 mL glass of wine, depending on type).
  19. Subjects who are study site employees, or immediate family members of a study site or sponsor employee.
  20. Radiation exposure, including that from the present study, excluding background radiation but including diagnostic x-rays and other medical exposures, exceeding 5 mSv in the last 12 months or 10 mSv in the last 5 years. No occupationally exposed worker, as defined in the Ionising Radiation Regulations 2017, shall participate in the study.
  21. Judgment by the investigator that the volunteer should not participate in the study if they have any ongoing or recent (ie during the screening period) minor medical complaints that may interfere with the interpretation of the study data or are considered unlikely to comply with the study procedures, restrictions and requirements.
  22. Failure to satisfy the investigator of fitness to participate for any other reason.
