Study to Assess Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Oral Doses for AC430 in Healthy Subjects

AC430 will be administered, orally under fasting conditions (fasting 4 hours before and 2 hours after dosing) with approximately 240 mL of water either once daily or twice daily. It is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single and multiple oral doses of AC430.

A dose-finding study of AC430 in healthy volunteers.
