Experimental group
Description:
4 treatment periods consisting of a 2 hour placebo infusion (single blind) followed by a 6 hour infusion of study drug or placebo. Each subject will receive 3 active ascending doses of study drug and 1 dose of placebo randomized into the sequence of escalating doses in a double-blind manner. Treatment periods occur at least 7 days apart.
