Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of: single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) administration of JNJ-64457744, administered to healthy adult participants (Part 1 and Part 3), including a cohort of Asian participants (Part 1); and after single dose administration of JNJ-64457744 to chronic hepatitis B (CHB) participants who are virologically suppressed on nucleos(t)ide analog (NA) treatment (tenofovir disoproxil fumarate \[TDF\], tenofovir alafenamide \[TAF\], or entecavir \[ETV\]) (Part 2).
