Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change in the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A) Total Score
Baseline to week 4

HAM-A total score 0-56 units, 14 questions scored on scale of 0-4 (0= Not present, 4=Very severe) . Higher HAM-A scores indicate higher levels of anxiety Change : score at week 4 minus score at randomization

Change From Baseline in the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A) Total Score
From randomization (baseline) to week 4

The HAM -A is a 14-item clinician administered scale for the evaluation of anxiety symptoms. Each HAM-A item is rated on a 0 (not present) to 4 (very severe) scale, higher score indicates high level of anxiety. The HAM-A total score is calculated as the sum of 14 individual scores, with 56 as the maximum.

Visual Analog Scales

Safety and tolerabilityThe nature and incidence of adverse events (AEs), vital signs,physical examinations,electrocardiograms (ECGs)and laboratory assessments.
During the study
To determine the effects of repeated doses of AZD7325 on the pharmacokinetic profile of a CYP3A4 substrate (midazolam and its 1' hydroxy metabolite) and a CYP1A2 substrate (caffeine and its paraxanthine [3-desmethyl] metabolite).
Blood samples will be taken during the study.
Evaluation of the pharmacodynamic effects of AZD6280 by central nervous system function tests.
Test batteries will be performed at specified times both before and following study drug administration.
To assess the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending oral doses of AZD7325 compared to placebo by assessment of adverse events, vital signs, physical examinations, laboratory parameters, and ECGs
Alssessments are made at each visit, at least daily, during the study.
