Participants will be screened at 1 of 4 enrolling clinical sites within 28 days of Day 1. All eligible participants will be admitted to 1 central Clinical Research Unit (CRU) on Day -1 and are expected to remain confined for 16 days; discharge will be contingent upon clinical assessment and judgment of the Investigator. The 16-day Inpatient Period will include the Day of Admission (Day -1), a 14-day Treatment Period (Day 1 through Day 14), and the Day of Discharge (Day 15). Participants are expected to return to the enrolling clinic on Day 21 for a Follow-up Visit. Throughout the study, adverse events (AEs) and concomitant medications will be assessed on all study days.
