Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. Participant must be =18 years of age, at the time of signing the informed consent.
2. Participants who are overtly healthy, in the opinion of the Investigator, as determined by medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, vital signs, ECGs and laboratory tests. Participants who do not qualify based on a reversible condition or mild intercurrent illness may be re-screened after the underlying condition is resolved.
3. Body weight between 50.0 and 120.0 kg, inclusive, if male; and between 40.0 and 120.0 kg, inclusive, if female. Body Mass Index within the range =19 and =30 kg/m2 (inclusive), at screening.
4. Female participants who engage in heterosexual intercourse must be of non-childbearing potential, defined as either surgically sterile (ie, hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy), OR be postmenopausal with at least 1 year of amenorrhea, OR must be using an established form of highly effective method of contraception from the time of screening until at least 90 days after the last dose of study intervention. Female participants must not be lactating and must agree to have no egg donation plan during the study and for 90 days after the last dose of study intervention.
5. Male participants must agree to use a condom when sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential from screening until at least 90 days after the last dose of study intervention (or be surgically sterile [ie, vasectomy with documentation]; or remain abstinent, when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle). Male participants should also agree not to donate sperm for the duration of the study and until at least 90 days after the last dose of study intervention.
6. Must be capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol.

Can healthy volunteers participate?
Yes
Key exclusion criteria
1. Known hypersensitivity, allergy, intolerance, or idiosyncratic reaction to the study intervention, or any of the excipients contained in the intervention formulation. If any history of anaphylaxis or reaction to other agents, discussion with (and approval by) the Investigator and Sponsor is required.
2. Any concomitant disease, condition, or treatment that could interfere with the conduct of the study or that would, in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor, pose an unacceptable risk to the participant in the study or interfere with the interpretation of study data.
3. History of dysphagia or any gastrointestinal disease (including Gilbert's syndrome) that affects the participants ability to swallow and/or affects drug absorption.

11. Acute or febrile illness within 7 days prior to the first dose of study intervention or participants with evidence of active infection.
12. Evidence of an active or suspected cancer or a history of malignancy within the previous 3 years, except for the following, which did not require systemic therapy and are considered cured: nonmelanoma skin cancer, curatively treated localized prostate cancer, or other in situ cancer.

14. History of alcohol abuse or a positive alcohol test result at screening or D-1.

Participants who used recommended doses of paracetamol/ibuprofen for acute conditions (e.g., headache) will not be excluded. Participants who have been on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or oral contraception for a period of at least 2 months prior to the start of screening will not be excluded from the study, provided the contraceptive or HRT regimen will remain unchanged during the conduct of the study.
16. Use of any known liver enzyme inducer or liver enzyme inhibiting food or beverage (such as all citrus fruits including tangerine, grapefruit, sweet orange, lime, kumquat, citron, orange, lemon, etc., and fruit juices) within 7 days prior to administration.
17. Any major surgery within 6 months before screening, or plan to have a surgery during the study period.
18. Any other conditions that the Investigator considers may affect the participants' informed consent or adherence to the study protocol, completion of the test according to the study procedure, or the participants' participation in the test may affect the test results or their own safety.
19. Receipt of another study intervention within 1 month or 5 elimination half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to administration of the study intervention.
20. Abnormal cardiac conditions and ECG:

i. The Fridericia algorithm corrected QT interval (QTcF) of ECG during screening period is >450 ms for males and >470 ms for females or is considered abnormal with clinical significance as determined by the Investigator.

ii. Sustained (ie, 3 independent measurements within 30 minutes) HR (pulse) >100 or <40 bpm.

iii. Personal and/or family history of congenital long QT syndrome or sudden cardiac death.
21. Pregnant (positive blood or urine pregnancy test at the initial screening visit or D-1).
22. Is or has an immediate family member (e.g., spouse, parent/legal guardian, sibling, or child) who is investigational site or Sponsor staff directly involved with this study.
23. Unwilling to abstain from smoking or vaping and the consumption of any caffeine or alcohol-containing food or drinks that may influence the drug metabolism from 72 hours before administration to discharge.
