Detailed Description:

Single-centre, open-label, randomized, two-sequence, two-way crossover study. The study consisted of two consecutive single-dose treatment periods separated by a washout period of 10 to 14 days or more. In Group 1 the volunteers received a single oral dose of 25 mg OPC. In Group 2 the volunteers received a single oral dose of 50 mg OPC

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :

1. Cmax - Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration of 9-1067 [ Time Frame: before OPC dosing, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48h post-OPC dose ]
   Cmax - maximum observed plasma concentration of 9-1067.

Secondary Outcome Measures :

1. Tmax - Time of Occurrence of Cmax of 9-1067 [ Time Frame: before OPC dosing, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48h post-OPC dose ]
   tmax - time of occurrence of Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration of 9-1067
2. AUC0-t - Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve Calculated Between Time of Administration and Time t [ Time Frame: before OPC dosing, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48h post-OPC dose ]
3. AUC0-∞ - Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve Extrapolated to Infinity [ Time Frame: before OPC dosing, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48h post-OPC dose ]
   AUC0-∞ - Area under the plasma concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinity.
