Inclusion Criteria
  1. Participants who are overtly healthy as determined by the Investigator or medically qualified designee based on a medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, laboratory tests, and cardiac monitoring (history and ECG).

  2. Participants who can understand and comply with protocol requirements and timetables, instructions, and protocol-stated restrictions.

    Age

  3. Participant must be 18 to 55 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.

  5. Participants male at birth and participants female at birth:

    1. Participants male at birth:

      Participants male at birth are eligible to participate if they agree to the following during the study intervention period and for at least 90 days (a spermatogenesis cycle) 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 as detailed below: Agree to use a male condom and, if their partner is a person who is able to become pregnant, and who is not currently pregnant, they should also be advised of the benefit for their partner to use a highly effective method of contraception when having sexual intercourse, as a condom may break or leak.
