Detailed Description

This is a first in human single and multiple ascending dose study. The study consists of 4 parts: Part 1 (single ascending dose [SAD]), Part 2 (multiple ascending dose [MAD]), Part 3A (Japanese and Chinese SAD), Part 3B (Japanese and Chinese combined SAD and MAD), and Part 4 (Food Effect). Each study part includes a 28-day screening period and a residential period during which participants will be resident at the Clinical Unit from the day before study intervention administration (Day -1) until at least 48-72 hours after the study intervention administration.
