• Participation in other studies involving investigational drug(s) within 30 days prior to study entry and/or during study participation.

• Acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the participant inappropriate for entry into this study.

• Pregnant female participant.

• Breastfeeding female participant.

• Known or suspected intolerance or hypersensitivity or photosensitivity to the study materials (or closely related compounds) or any of their stated ingredients.

• Diagnosis of long QT syndrome or QTc > 450 Millisecond (msec) for males and > 470 msec for females.

• Clinically significant vital sign abnormalities (systolic blood pressure lower than 90 or over 140 Millimeter of mercury (mmHg), diastolic blood pressure lower than 50 or over 90 mmHg, or pulse rate less than 50 or over 100 beats per minute (bpm).

• A participant unwilling or unable to comply with Lifestyle Considerations described in this protocol.

• Use of any medication (including over-the-counter medications and herbal remedies) within 2 weeks before first scheduled study drug administration or within less than 10 times the elimination half-life of the respective drug (whichever is longer), or is anticipated to require any concomitant medication during that period or at any time throughout the study. Allowed treatments are:

• systemic contraceptives and hormone replacement therapy, as long as female participant is on stable treatment for at least 3 months before first scheduled study drug administration and continues treatment throughout the study;

• occasional use of acetaminophen (up to 2 g daily).

• Evidence or history of clinically significant laboratory abnormality, hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic, psychiatric, neurologic, or allergic disease within the last 5 years that may increase the risk associated with study participation.

• Clinically relevant chronic or acute infectious illnesses or febrile infections within two weeks prior to start of the study.

• Participant with signs and symptoms suggestive of COVID-19 (i.e. fever, cough, etc)* within 14 days of inpatient admission. *as defined by WHO or local guidance)

• Participant with known COVID-19 positive contacts in the past 14 days.

• Any vaccination, including COVID-19 vaccine, within 14 days prior to the first dose.

• Any surgical or medical condition which may significantly alter the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of any drug substance but not limited to any of the following:

• History of major gastrointestinal tract surgery such as gastrectomy, gastroenterostomy, bowel resection, gastric bypass, gastric stapling or gastric banding (note: this is not applicable for minor abdominal surgery without significant tissue resection, e.g., appendectomy and herniorrhaphy);

• History of inflammatory bowel disease;

• History or current evidence of renal disease or impaired renal function at screening as indicated by abnormal levels of serum creatinine (> 123 micromole per liter [μmol/L] for males and > 95 μmol/L for females) or blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (>= 12.0 millimoles per liter [mmol/L]) or the presence of clinically significant abnormal urinary constituents (e.g. albuminuria);

• History or current evidence of ongoing hepatic disease or impaired hepatic function at screening. A candidate will be excluded if more than one of the following lab value deviations are found: 1) aspartate transaminase (AST) (>= 1.2 upper limit of normal [ULN]), alanine transaminase [ALT] (>= 1.2 ULN), 2) gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) (>= 1.2 ULN), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (>= 1.2 ULN), 3) bilirubin (>= 48 μmol/L for males and >= 30 μmol/L for females) or creatine kinase (CK) (>= 3 ULN). A single deviation from the above values is acceptable and will not exclude the candidate, unless specifically advised by the investigator;

• Evidence of urinary obstruction or difficulty in voiding at screening;

• History or clinical evidence at screening of pancreatic injury or pancreatitis.

• Allergy to skin disinfecting agents, tape, or latex rubber, whenever appropriate substitutions cannot be applied or in the investigator's opinion may pose a risk to the candidate.

• Any condition not identified in the protocol that in the opinion of the investigator would confound the evaluation and interpretation of the study data or may put the participant at risk
