| Popis: | Inhibition of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) potentiates endocannabinoid activity and is hypothesized to have therapeutic potential for mood and anxiety disorders and pain. The clinical profile of JNJ-42165279, an oral selective FAAH inhibitor, was assessed by investigating the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and binding to FAAH in the brain of healthy human volunteers. Concentrations of JNJ-42165279 (plasma, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), urine) and fatty acid amides (FAA; plasma, CSF), and FAAH activity in leukocytes was determined in a phase I multiple ascending dose study. A positron emission tomography study with the FAAH tracer [11 C]MK3168 was conducted to determine brain FAAH occupancy after single and multiple doses of JNJ-42165279. JNJ-42165279 administration resulted in an increase in plasma and CSF FAA. Significant blocking of brain FAAH binding of [11 C]MK3168 was observed after pretreatment with JNJ-42165279. JNJ-42165279 produces potent central and peripheral FAAH inhibition. Saturation of brain FAAH occupancy occurred with doses ≥10 mg of JNJ-42165279. No safety concerns were identified. |
