• Any personal or familial history (first degree) of seizures, epilepsy or other convulsive condition
• Positive family history of psychosis or mood disorders up to first degree relative
• Angle closure glaucoma, history or current significant ophthalmologic or neurologic condition that would adversely affect the pupillometry assessment
• Suspicion of regular consumption of drug of abuse and/or any history of alcohol addiction with positive urine drug screen and/or positive alcohol urine test, or regular smoker
• Positive result on hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV), or human immunodeficiency virus antibody (HIV 1 and 2)

• Clinically significant abnormalities in laboratory test results (including hepatic and renal panels, complete blood count, chemistry panel and urinalysis)
• Participation in an investigational drug or device study within 90 days prior to screening
• Dietary restrictions that would prohibit the consumption of standardized meals
• Concomitant disease or condition that could interfere with, or treatment of which might interfere with, the conduct of the study, or that would, in the opinion of the investigator, pose an unacceptable risk to the participant in this study

Part 2:

• Contraindications for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans or any brain/head abnormalities restricting MRI eligibility. Any sensorial impairment such as deafness and reduced visual acuity which cannot be corrected in the fMRI scanner
• Use of any psychoactive medication, or medications known to have effects on CNS or blood flow taken within 4 weeks prior to first dosing or within 5 times the elimination half-life of the medication prior to first dosing (whichever is longer)
• Fulfilment of any of the MRI contraindications on the standard radiography screening questionnaire

---

164 participants in 3 patient groups, including a placebo group

Placebo

Placebo Comparator group

Description:

Healthy volunteers will receive the placebo equivalent to RO6889450 as oral capsules.

Treatment:

Drug: Placebo

RO6889450: Part 1 Single Ascending Dose (SAD)

Experimental group

Description:

Participants will undergo a series of screening visits prior to treatment and 4 weeks follow-up. Healthy volunteers will be enrolled in up to 7 dose groups (5 milligram \[mg\] to 450 mg) and will receive single oral dose of RO6889450 in the morning of the Day 1.

Treatment:

Drug: RO6889450

RO6889450: Part 2 Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD)

Experimental group

Description:

The starting dose for Part 2 MAD will be determined by analysis of safety and pharmacokinetic data of Part 1 SAD. All participants will receive RO6889450 orally for 14 days.
