Research summary
The Sponsor is developing the study drug, lefamulin, as an antibiotic for human use for the treatment of respiratory (lung), skin and sexually transmitted infections.
The purpose of the study is to see how a fast acting (immediate release) tablet form of lefamulin, is taken up by the body (absorbed) and broken down (metabolised) when given without food (fasted) and with food (fed). This will be compared to two other forms of the study drug (capsule and intravenous).
Twenty healthy male and female subjects will be enrolled in the study and will each receive a different dose of lefamulin at 4 separate sessions.
