A Study To Investigate Effects Of GSK561679 On Brain Activation During Emotional Processing In Healthy Volunteers

July 18, 2017 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

A Randomised, Placebo-controlled, Double-dummy, Crossover Design Study to Investigate the Changes of fMRI BOLD Activation Induced by Emotional Activation Paradigms Following Single Doses of GSK561679 and Lorazepam (Comparator) in Healthy Subjects

This study will be conducted in healthy volunteers to investigate the effect of single dose GSK561679 on the changes of brain activation, as it compares to an active comparator, lorazepam.
