Arms & Interventions
Part A: Single Ascending Dose (SAD)
Participants will be randomized to receive a single dose of different dose levels of VX-993.

Intervention: VX-993
Placebo Part A
Participants will be randomized to receive placebo matched to VX-993.
Intervention: Placebo
Placebo Part B
Participants will be randomized to receive multiple doses of placebo matched to VX-993.
Intervention: Placebo
