a study to assess distribution of ro7248824 in the central nervous system following single intrathecal doses of [89zr] labeled ro7248824 in healthy male participants

Conditions: Angelman Syndrome

Summary: the aim of study bp41660 is to quantify the amount and concentration of \[89zr\]dfo-ro7248824 in the brain with positron emission tomography (pet) following a single sub-pharmacological dose of ro7248824 and \[89zr\]dfo-ro7248824 administered via it injection to healthy participants.
