Inclusion Criteria
  • Healthy male and/or female subjects between the ages of 18 and 55 years, inclusive (Healthy is defined as no clinically relevant abnormalities identified by a detailed medical history, full physical examination, including blood pressure and pulse rate measurement, 12 lead ECG and clinical laboratory tests).
  • Body Mass Index (BMI) of 17.5 to 30.5 kg/m2; and a total body weight >50 kg (110 lbs).
  • An informed consent document signed and dated by the subject or a legally acceptable representative.
  • Subjects who are willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
Exclusion Criteria

  • History of febrile illness within 5 days prior to first dose.
  • Treatment with azithromycin within the past 30 days or with chloroquine within the past 45 days.
  • Known immediate family history of prolonged QT Syndrome, serious ventricular arrhythmia, or sudden cardiac death. "Immediate" is considered "first degree".
  • Known allergy to macrolide antibiotics (eg, erythromycin, clarithromycin, azithromycin) or chloroquine (or other 4 aminoquinolines) or severe allergic reaction to any drug in the past (eg, difficulty breathing, anaphylaxis).
