Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Phosphodiesterase 2A (PDE2A) Brain Enzyme Occupancy in the Putamen as a Function of TAK-915 Plasma Concentration for each subject
2 PET scans occurring on Day 1 or 1 PET scan on Day 1 and 1 on Day 2.

Assessed for each subject using the PET ligand \[18F\]MNI-794 after single dosing of TAK-915, obtained from non-displaceable binding potential (BPnd).

Percentage of Participants Who Experience at Least One Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)
Day 1 up to follow-up (SRD Cohorts: up to Day 13, MRD Cohorts: up to Day 26, DDI Cohort: up to Day 28, BA/FE Cohorts: up to Day 13, ESSD Cohort: up to Day 28)

An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign (eg, a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not it is considered related to the drug. A TEAE is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug.

Percentage of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Safety Laboratory Tests
Day 1 up to follow-up (SRD Cohorts: up to Day 13, MRD Cohorts: up to Day 26, DDI Cohort: up to Day 28, BA/FE Cohorts: up to Day 13, ESSD Cohort: up to Day 28)

The percentage of participants with any markedly abnormal standard safety laboratory values, including haematology, serum chemistries, or urinalysis, during the treatment period.

Percentage of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Vital Sign Measurements
Day 1 up to follow-up (SRD Cohorts: up to Day 13, MRD Cohorts: up to Day 26, DDI Cohort: up to Day 28, BA/FE Cohorts: up to Day 13, ESSD Cohort: up to Day 28)

The percentage of participants who meet markedly abnormal criteria for vital signs after dosing, including oral body temperature (temp.), respiration rate, pulse rate (PR) Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) for assessment in positions of supine or standing. Vital signs were considered abnormal if they were beyond the values defined in categories.

Percentage of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Values of 12-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) Parameters
Day 1 up to follow-up (SRD Cohorts: up to Day 13, MRD Cohorts: up to Day 26, DDI Cohort: up to Day 28, BA/FE Cohorts: up to Day 13, ESSD Cohort: up to Day 28)

The percentage of participants who meet markedly abnormal criteria for ECG parameters as specified by the protocol and statistical analysis plan during the treatment period. ECG parameters were considered abnormal if they were beyond the values defined in categories.
