About
This study will dose healthy human volunteers with either active drug (4ET1103) or placebo. Each study subject will receive a single dose of either active drug or placebo, and will then be monitored for safety, tolerability and exposure of active drug.
Full description
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, SAD study conducted in approximately 40 healthy male and female volunteers. The study drug (4ET1103 or placebo) will be administered orally under fasting condition. 40 subjects (8 subjects/cohort) will participate in this study in up to 5 dose cohorts (45, 135, 270, 450 and 720 mg of 4ET1103.

Exclusion criteria
History or presence of any illness, condition, or finding that in the opinion of the Principal Investigator (PI) or designee would put the subject or study conduct at risk, or have the potential to confound the results of the study, if the subject were to participate in the study.
History or presence of significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, hematological, gastrointestinal, endocrine, immunologic, dermatologic, neurological, bleeding disorder or psychiatric disease or drug hypersensitivity as determined by the Investigator
Any surgical or medical condition that could interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of the drug. Cholecystectomies will be exclusionary and uncomplicated appendectomies will not be exclusionary
In opinion of the Investigator, the subject has history of any true drug allergy; excluding histories limited to mild to moderate gastrointestinal distress (nausea, anorexia, diarrhea, infrequent vomiting).

During the study, if subjects have infections, the subjects may continue the study at the discretion of the Investigator. In the case of COVID-19 infection, subject will be withdrawn.
Subjects who have received any vaccines within 30 days prior to Day 1

Positive Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) at Screening
Surgery within the past 90 days prior to Day 1 as determined by the Investigator to be clinically relevant.
Seated systolic blood pressure (SBP) not within the range of 90 mmHg to 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) not within the range of 50 mmHg to 90 mmHg at Screening or Day 1.
Note: If a subject fails to meet SBP and/or DBP criteria, optional repeat visits/measurements can, at the discretion of the Investigator, to be completed. For those subjects who have a repeat blood pressure measurement, the repeat value will be used to determine eligibility.
Heart rate <40 bpm or >99 bpm at Screening or Day -1. Note: If a subject fails to meet heart rate criteria, optional repeat visits/measurements can, at the discretion of the Investigator, to be completed. For those subjects who have a repeat blood pressure measurement, the repeat value will be used to determine eligibility.

NOTE: The following (a-d) are considered not clinically significant without consulting Sponsor's Medical Monitor:
