Brief Summary:
SB-742457 is a 5HT6 receptor antagonist that is in development for the symptomatic treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease . To date, all clinical trials have been conducted using a capsule formulation of SB-742457. However, it is intended to conduct all futures studies with a tablet formulation. The aim of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic profile of SB-742457 and its major metabolites following single doses of both the capsule and tablet formulations.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. To characterise pharmacokinetics ( AUC(0-inf) and Cmax ) of SB-742457 from pre-dose to 96 hours following single doses formulated as a capsule and a tablet. [ Time Frame: pre-dose to 96 hours ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. To assess safety and tolerability (adverse events, blood pressure, heart rate, 12-lead ECG, blood haematology/clinical chemistry and urinalysis) of SB-742457 following single doses formulated as a capsule and a tablet over the 6 week study period. [ Time Frame: 6 week study period ]
