A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Single Ascending Dose and Multiple Doses With Titration of TAK-935 in Healthy Japanese Participants

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of TAK-935 with single ascending doses (Part 1) and multiple doses with titration (Part 2).

Detailed Description
-----------------
The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-935 tablet. TAK-935 tablet is being tested in Japanese healthy adult men. This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of TAK-935 with single ascending doses (Part 1) and multiple doses with titration (Part 2). The study will enroll up to 33 participants in total (Part 1 + 2). In Part 1, participants will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to one of these treatment cohorts/groups; Cohort 1: Single dose of TAK-935 at 200 mg or placebo (fasted) Cohort 2: Single dose of TAK-935 at 600 mg or placebo (fasted) Cohort 3: Single dose of TAK-935 at 1200 mg or placebo (fasted) In Part 2, participants will be randomly assigned to one of these treatment groups; - Cohort 4: Multiple doses with titration of TAK-935 or placebo at 100 mg twice daily (BID) from Day 1 to Day 7, 200 mg BID from Day 8 to Day 14 and 300 mg BID from Day 15 to Day 21 (fasted). This single-center trial will be conducted in Japan. The overall time to participate in this study is approximately 36 days for Part 1 and 63 days for Part 2. Participants will be hospitalized for 5 days in Part 1 and 26 days in Part 2.

Has a positive alcohol or drug screen. Had major surgery, donated or lost whole blood prior to the start of study drug administration as any of below: For both male and female participants, >=200 mL within 4 weeks (28 days) For male participants, >=400 mL within 12 weeks (84 days), >=800 mL in total within 52 weeks (364 days) For female participants, >=400 mL within 16 weeks (112 days). >=400 mL in total within 52 weeks (364 days) Had gastrointestinal surgery that could impact the absorption of study drug. Has a history of a major psychiatric disorder as diagnosed utilizing Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition criteria. Has a known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation of TAK-935 or related compounds. Is unable to refrain from or anticipates the use of any medication, including prescription and nonprescription drugs or herbal remedies, beginning approximately 7 days before administration of the initial dose of study drug, throughout the trial (including washout intervals between trial periods), until the Follow-up Visit. Has a history of drug abuse (defined as any illicit drug use) or a history of alcohol abuse within 1 year prior to the Screening visit or is unwilling to agree to abstain from alcohol and drugs throughout the study. Consumes excessive amounts, defined as greater than 6 servings (1 serving is approximately equivalent to 120 mg of caffeine) of coffee, tea, cola, energy drinks, or other caffeinated beverages per day. Has a substance abuse disorder. Has a QTcF >450 msec confirmed with one repeat testing, at the Screening Visit.
