ClinConnect Summary

This is a single-center, randomized, four-treatment, four-sequence crossover study in healthy volunteers to estimate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of simufilam following oral 100 mg Phase 3 oral tablets. Additionally, the relative bioavailability of the Phase 3 100 mg tablet will be compared to the earlier Phase 2 100 mg tablet in the fasted state. A total of twenty four (24) healthy volunteers (12 male and 12 female) will be enrolled into this study. Subjects will be randomly assigned to one of four treatment sequences (6 subjects/sequence).
