What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a single dose of XBD173, a medicine that binds to a protein called the 18 kiloDalton Translocator Protein (TSPO), affects how the body processes glucose in healthy volunteers aged 18 to 75 years.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does a single dose of XBD173 change fasting blood glucose levels compared with placebo?
* Does a single dose of XBD173 change blood glucose levels after participants drink a glucose solution compared with placebo?
Researchers will compare XBD173 with a placebo, which does not contain the active medicine, to see whether activating TSPO affects glucose metabolism in the fasting state and after a glucose drink.
Participants will:
* Attend a screening visit to confirm eligibility, including a medical history, physical examination and blood tests.
* Attend four study visits after fasting overnight: tw
