2. Non-Asian:
- Must be a descent from North America, South America, Europe or the Middle

excluded).
- Both the subject's biological parents and all four biological grandparents
must be of non-Asian descent
- Male or female participants must be 18 to 55 years of age (inclusive) at the time of
signing the informed consent. A minimum of six evaluable subjects of each sex will
have to be completed within each cohort (i.e. at least six female and six male
subjects)
- Has provided signed informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements
and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol
- Willingness to remain at the clinic for the required duration and willingness to
return to the clinic for the follow-up evaluation as specified in the protocol
- Healthy participants as determined by medical evaluation at the screening visit
including medical history, physical examination, laboratory tests, electrocardiogram
(ECG) and vital signs monitoring
- Laboratory parameters within the normal range of the laboratory (haematological, blood
biochemistry, urinalysis). Individual values out of the normal range can be accepted
if judged non-clinically significant by the investigator.
- Normal ECG recording on a 12-lead ECG at screening and at admission (Day -1):
- 120=PR=220 ms,
- QRS<110 ms,
- QTcF=430 ms for male and =450 ms for female,
- No evidence of sinus node automaticity or abnormal conduction, or rhythm disorders of
concern, except as considered non-clinically significant by the investigator.
Out-of-range values that are not clinically significant (as determined by the
investigator) may be repeated twice during screening and admission and the participant
may be enrolled if at least one repeated value is within the range noted above.
- Normal blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) at the screening and at admission after
5 minutes in supine position:
- 90 mmHg = systolic blood pressure (SBP)=145 mmHg
- 50 mmHg = diastolic blood pressure (DBP)=90 mmHg,
- 45 bpm=HR=90 bpm,
- For these parameters, out-of-range values that are not clinically significant (as
determined by the investigator) may be repeated twice during screening and admission
and the participant may be enrolled if at least one repeated value is within the range
noted above.
- Body weight not below 45 kg and body mass index (BMI) within the range 18.0 kg/m^2 and
30.0 kg/m^2
- Contraception/Barrier Requirements:
1. Female participants:
- A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or
breastfeeding at screening, is willing not to become pregnant during the
study and one of the following conditions applies:
- Is a woman of nonchildbearing potential (WONCBP), or
- Is a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) and using a contraceptive
method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year),
preferably with low user dependency, during the study intervention period
and for at least one month after the last dose of study intervention. The
investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure
(e.g. noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose
of study intervention.
- A WOCBP must have a negative highly sensitive pregnancy test (serum as
required by local regulations) within 24 hours before dosing with study
intervention. The investigator is responsible for review of medical history,
menstrual history and recent sexual activity to decrease the risk for
inclusion of a woman with an early undetected pregnancy.
2. Male participants:
- Male participants are eligible to participate if they agree to the following
during the intervention period and for at least 90 days after the last dose
of study intervention:
- Refrain from donating sperm PLUS, either:
- Be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their preferred and usual
lifestyle (abstinent on a long term and persistent basis) and agree to
remain abstinent, or
- Must agree to use contraception /barrier as detailed below:
- Agree to use a male condom and should also be advised of the benefit for a
female partner to use a highly effective method of contraception as a condom
may break or leak and there remains a risk to pregnant women and women of
childbearing potential
Exclusion Criteria :
- History or presence of cardiovascular, respiratory, hepatic, renal, gastrointestinal,
endocrinological, haematological or neurological disorders capable of significantly
altering the absorption, metabolism or elimination of drugs; constituting a risk when
taking the study intervention; or interfering with the interpretation of data
- Lymphoma, leukaemia or any malignancy within the past 5 years except basal cell or
squamous epithelial carcinomas of the skin that have been resected with no evidence of
metastatic disease for 3 years prior to screening
- Breast cancer within the past 10 years prior to screening
- Major surgery within 28 days prior to screening
- History of COVID-19 infection (hospitalization, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation,
mechanically ventilated) within 2 months before dosing
- Past or intended use of over the counter (OTC) or prescription medication (including
herbal medications or vitamin supplements, nutritional supplements, herb-containing
drug preparations (including Chinese medicines) within 14 days (or 5 half-lives of the
drug (whichever is longer) prior to dosing. Exceptions are oral contraception/hormone
replacement therapy for females and paracetamol/acetaminophen at doses of =2 g/day
- Any vaccination during the 4 weeks before enrolment or planned during the clinical
study
- Use of any medications within 3 months that may interfere with absorption,
distribution, metabolism or excretion of the study intervention, or any medication
that may result in induction or inhibition of microsomal enzymes
- Plasma donation within 14 days of the screening or any blood donation/blood loss >450
mL during the last 30 days before screening. Blood and/or plasma should not be donated
until 30 days after last study intervention
- Current enrolment or past participation within the last 3 months (or 5 half-lives,
whichever is longer) before signing of consent in any other clinical study involving
an investigational study intervention or any other type of medical research
- Presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) at screening
- Positive hepatitis C antibody test result at screening. NOTE: Participants with
positive hepatitis C antibody due to prior resolved disease can be enrolled if a
confirmatory negative hepatitis C ribonucleic acid (RNA) test is obtained and

- Positive hepatitis C RNA test result at screening or within 3 months prior to first
dose of study intervention. NOTE: Test is optional and participants with negative
hepatitis C antibody test are not required to also undergo hepatitis C RNA testing
- Positive severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Polymerase chain
reaction (PCR) test result at screening or admission
- Positive drugs of abuse/alcohol screen at screening and at admission
- Positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody test at screening

prior to first dosing, or evidence of such abuse as indicated by the laboratory assays
conducted at screening or admission. Intake of alcohol above the official
