A Study to Find Out How Much Mirabegron Gets Into the Body After Dosing With a Tablet Formulation

A Single Dose, Open Label, Randomized, Two-period Cross Over Study in Healthy Male Subjects to Assess the Absolute Bioavailability of YM178 OCAS-M Formulation

A study to evaluate how much of the active compound of mirabegron comes into the blood circulation when given as a controlled-release pill as compared to given intravenously.

All participants will receive both oral and iv formulations, separated by a washout period. Treatment arm A will receive a lower dose of mirabegron; Treatment arm B will receive a higher dose of mirabegron.
