Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Participants will be eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply:

Age

1. Participant must be a healthy adult male or female, 18 to 55 years of age (inclusive) at the time of screening.

Type of Participant and Disease Characteristics

2. Participants who are overtly medically healthy with clinically insignificant screening results (eg, laboratory profiles, medical histories, ECGs, physical examination) as assessed by the investigator, sub-investigator, or medical officer.

Weight

3. Body mass index (BMI) ≥ 18.5 and ≤ 29.9 (kg/m2) and weight between 55.0 and 100.0 kg (inclusive). Note: BMI = kg/m2 where kg is a weight in kilograms and m2 is a height in meters squared.

Sex and Contraceptive/Barrier Requirements

4. Contraceptive use by men and women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.

Male participants:

If male, agree to be sexually abstinent or agree to use 2 approved methods of contraception (refer to inclusion criterion #5) when engaging in sexual activity from study check-in through 30 days following the last administration of the study drug, and to not donate sperm during this same period of time. If the sexual partner is surgically sterile, contraception is not necessary.

5. Female participants:

Females of childbearing potential must either be sexually abstinent for 14 days prior to Day 1 and agree to remain so through 30 days following the last administration of the study drug, OR have been using (or agree to use) 2 of the following acceptable methods of birth control for the times specified:

1. Intra-uterine device (IUD) in place for at least 3 months prior to Day 1 through 30 days following the final dosing of the study drug

2. Barrier method (condom or diaphragm) for at least 14 days prior to Day 1 through 30 days following the final dosing of the study drug

3. Stable hormonal contraceptive for at least 3 months prior to Day 1 and barrier method (condom or diaphragm) for at least 14 days prior to Day 1 through 30 days following final dosing of the study drug

4. Surgical sterilization (vasectomy) of partner at least 6 months prior to Day 1

Informed Consent

6. Capable of giving signed informed consent as described in Appendix 1 Informed Consent Form (Section 10.1.3) that includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

2. Documented hypersensitivity reaction or anaphylaxis to any medication, including ceftibuten or other beta-lactam antibiotics (e.g. cephalosporins, penicillins, carbapenems or monobactams) or any excipients used in this formulation.

3. Positive testing for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), or hepatitis C virus (HCV).

4. Females who are pregnant or lactating.

5. Surgery within the past 3 months prior to Day 1 determined by the investigator, sub-investigator, or medical officer to be clinically relevant.

6. Any acute illness within 30 days prior to Day 1.

7. Any other condition or prior therapy, which, in the opinion of the investigator, sub-investigator, or medical officer would make the participant unsuitable for this study.

Prior/Concomitant Therapy

Prior/Concurrent Clinical Study Experience

11. Participation in another investigational clinical trial within 30 days prior to Day 1 or within 5 half-lives of the previous investigational drug, whichever is longer.

Diagnostic Assessments

12. QTc corrected according to Fridericia's formula (QTcF) interval > 450 msec for males and > 470 for females or history of prolonged QT syndrome at screening or check-in (Day -1).

13. Calculated creatinine clearance < 80 mL/min (Cockcroft-Gault method) at screening or check-in (Day -1).

14. Any clinically significant abnormalities in laboratory values at screening or check-in (Day -1), in particular:

1. White blood cell count < 3,000/mm3, hemoglobin < 11g/dL

2. Absolute neutrophil count < 1,200/mm3 or platelet count < 120,000/mm3

3. Liver function abnormalities at screening or check-in (Day -1) (defined by an elevation in bilirubin, AST, or ALT > ULN for participants based on age and sex)

Other Exclusion Criteria
