Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Inclusion Criteria
  • Provision of signed and dated written informed consent form prior to any study specific procedures
  • Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study

  • If female, meets one of the following criteria:
  • Physiological postmenopausal status, defined as the following:
  • absence of menses for at least 12 months following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments (without an alternative medical condition) at Screening and prior to the first study drug administration; and
  • follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels ≥ 40 mIU/mL at Screening; and
  • must have a negative pregnancy test result at screening and check-in. and/or
  • Surgical sterile, defined as those who have had:

A male participant is considered capable of fathering children even if his sexual partner is sterile or using contraceptives.
  • Men who are biologically capable of fathering children must also agree to refrain from sperm donation for the duration of the treatment period and for at least 90 days after the last administration of study intervention.

  • Non- or ex-smoker (An ex-smoker is defined as someone who completely stopped using nicotine products for at least 180 days prior to the first study drug administration)
  • Have no clinically significant diseases captured in the medical history or evidence of clinically significant findings on the physical or neurological examination (including vital signs) and/or ECG and/or safety laboratory tests, as determined by an Investigator
  • Suitable veins for cannulation or repeated venepuncture
  • Exclusion Criteria
  • Female who is lactating
  • Female who is pregnant according to the pregnancy test at Screening or prior to the first study drug administration
  • Male participants with a history of oligospermia or azoospermia or any other disorder of the reproductive system
  • Male participants who are undergoing treatment or evaluation for infertility.
  • History of significant allergy/ hypersensitivity to AZD4041 or products related to AZD4041 as well as severe allergy/hypersensitivity reactions (like angioedema) to any drugs
  • Presence or history of significant gastrointestinal, liver or kidney disease, or any other condition that is known to interfere with drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion, or known to potentiate or predispose to undesired effects
  • History of any significant disease, including \[but not necessarily limited to\] significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematologic, neurological, psychiatric, endocrine, immunologic, or dermatologic disease
  • Maintenance therapy with any drug or significant history of drug dependency or alcohol abuse (\> 21 units/week or \> 3 units/day for men; \> 14 units/week or \> 2 units/day for women; intake of excessive alcohol, acute or chronic)
  • History of any significant psychiatric disorder according to the criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-5, American Psychiatric Association 2013) which, in the opinion of the Investigator, could be detrimental to participant safety or could compromise study data interpretation.
  • History of substance use disorder, other than nicotine or caffeine (as per DSM-5 criteria)
  • Use of any prescription drugs, including hormone replacement therapy in the 28 days prior to the first study drug administration, that in the opinion of an Investigator would put into question the status of the participant as healthy
  • Use of St. John's wort in the 28 days prior to the first study drug administration
  • Positive test result for alcohol and/or drugs of abuse at Screening or prior to the first study drug administration
  • Any clinically significant illness, medical/surgical procedure or trauma within the 28 days prior to the first study drug administration
  • Any abnormal or clinically significant findings in laboratory test results at Screening that would, in the opinion of an Investigator, increase the participant's risk of participation, jeopardize complete participation in the study, or compromise interpretation of study data
  • Positive screening results to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antigen/antibody (Ag/Ab) combo, hepatitis B surface antigen, or hepatitis C virus tests
  • Showing suicidal tendency as per the C-SSRS questionnaire administered at Screening
  • Any abnormal vital signs, after 10 minutes supine rest, as defined in the list below, at the Screening Visit/or Day -2 Out of range tests may be repeated once for each visit at the discretion of an Investigator.
  • Systolic blood pressure (BP) \< 90 mmHg or \>140 mmHg
  • Diastolic BP \< 50 mmHg or \> 90 mmHg
  • Heart Rate \< 45 or \> 85 beats per minute (bpm)
  • Any clinically important abnormalities in rhythm, conduction, or morphology of the resting ECG and any clinically important abnormalities in the 12-lead ECG which, in an Investigator's opinion, may interfere with the interpretation of QTc interval changes, including abnormal ST-T-wave morphology, particularly in the protocol-defined primary lead or left ventricular hypertrophy at Screening or prior to the first study drug administration
  • Prolonged QT interval corrected for HR using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) \> 440 ms at Screening or prior to the first study drug administration
  • Shortened QTcF \< 340 ms at Screening or prior to first study drug administration

Participants with QRS \> 110 ms but \< 115 ms are acceptable if there is no evidence of ventricular hypertrophy or preexcitation at Screening or prior to the first study drug administration
  • In the pre-dose 24 hour telemetry, presence of ≥ 10 ventricular premature contractions (VPCs) during 1 hour, or ≥ 100 VPCs during 24-hours of telemetry, or any occurrence of paired VPC (ventricular couplets) or other repetitive ventricular rhythms, including non-sustained or sustained (\> 30 second duration), slow (\< 100 bpm), or fast (≥ 100 bpm) ventricular tachycardias.
  • Vaccination with the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine less than 14 days prior to first study dose administration
  • Scheduled immunization with a COVID-19 vaccine (first or second dose) during the study that, in the opinion of an Investigator, could potentially interfere with participant participation, participant safety, study results, or any other reason
  • Use of any prescribed or nonprescribed oral and topical inhibitors/inducers of CYP3A4 (including shampoo).
  • Excessive intake of caffeine-containing drinks or food (eg, coffee, tea, chocolate) as judged by an Investigator
