Study to Evaluate Methods That Assess the Effect of AZD4017 in Adipose Tissue

December 9, 2010 updated by: AstraZeneca

A Randomised, Single-blind, Placebo-controlled, Single-centre, Phase I Study in Abdominally Obese Healthy Volunteers to Evaluate Methods to Assess 11-βHSD1 Activity in Adipose Tissue and Related Downstream Biomarkers After Single and Repeated Oral Doses of AZD4017 for 10 Days

The primary purpose of this study is to investigate different methods to evaluate the effect of AZD4017 in adipose tissue after single and multiple doses of AZD4017 in abdominally obese but otherwise healthy subjects.
