About

This is a phase 1, randomized, parallel-group, single-center study in healthy adult subjects. The study will be conducted in two parts sequentially:

Part 1 is an open-label, two-arm, active-controlled design to evaluate the PK and safety of single oral dose of ETV XR tablet (1.5 mg) in healthy subjects. Part 1 will consist of 16 healthy subjects.

Part 2 is a double-blind, three-arm, placebo-controlled design to evaluate the PK and safety of higher oral doses of ETV XR tablet (3 mg and 6 mg) in healthy subjects. Part 2 will consist of 24 healthy subjects.

  3. Ability to comply with the requirements of this trial protocol, including refrain from strenuous exercise/activity 3 days prior to Day -1 (admission) and for 3 days prior to the Day 8, Day 15 and the final follow-up visit on Day 22through the duration of the study
