Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 65 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Participants, both male and female, aged between 18 to 65 years, at the time of signing the informed consent. Participants determined as healthy based on medical evaluation by an experienced physician. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is of: Nonchildbearing potential defined as premenopausal females with a documented tubal ligation or hysterectomy; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea. Child-bearing potential and agrees to use one of the contraception methods for an appropriate time as mentioned in the study protocol. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase, and bilirubin ≤ 1.5x (Upper Limit of Normal) ULN (isolated bilirubin >1.5xULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%). Body weight ≥ 45 kilogram (kg) and Body Mass Index (BMI) within the range 18 to 29.5 kilogram per metre square (kg/m2) (inclusive). No significant abnormality on 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) at Screening in supine position, including the following specific requirements: Heart rate ≥ 40 beats per minute PR interval ≤ 220 milliseconds (msec) (For PR, QRS and QTcF interval, and Q wave, the mean of triplicate ECGs will be used) Q waves < 50 msec (For PR, QRS and QTcF interval, and Q wave, the mean of triplicate ECGs will be used) QRS interval to be ≥ 60msec and < 120msec (For PR, QRS and QTcF interval, and Q wave, the mean of triplicate ECGs will be used) The waveforms must enable the QT interval to be clearly defined QTcF interval must be < 450msec (machine or manual reading). A signed and dated written informed consent obtained from participants capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form. Non-smokers (never smoked or not smoking for >6 months with <10 pack years history (Pack years = (cigarettes per day smoked/20) x number of years smoked) or light smokers (less than 5 cigarettes per day).

Where participation in the study would result in donation of blood or blood products more than 500 mL within a 3-month period. Pregnant females as determined by positive serum β-HCG test at screening or serum/ urine beta-Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) prior to dosing. Lactating females. Unwillingness or inability to follow the procedures outlined in the protocol. Participants with unsuitable veins for cannulation and repeat venepuncture.

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the potential effect of paroxetine on QTc interval following escalating doses in healthy participants. Participants with no history of cardiac abnormalities or mood disorders will be enrolled. During the study, participants will take paroxetine at three incremental dose levels. Participants will attend the clinic at screening, baseline, at the end of each dose level administration week, and a final study exit visit. While on treatment outside of clinic visits, participants will be followed-up via video-call. A concentration-QTc analysis will assess any potential correlation between paroxetine plasma concentration and QTc prolongation. In addition, the occurrence of any side-effects will be compared between on and off treatment.
