Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: OLT1177 Capsules; A total of 5 patients in each cohort will receive OLT1177 Capsules: Cohort 1 will receive a single 100 mg dose of OLT1177; Cohort 2 will receive a single 300 mg dose of OLT1177; Cohort 3 will receive two 1000 mg doses of OLT1177 (seven days apart); Cohort 4 will receive 100 mg doses of OLT1177 QD for 8 days; Cohort 5 will receive 300 mg doses of OLT1177 QD for 8 days; Cohort 6 will receive 1000 mg doses of OLT1177 QD for 8 days	Drug: OLT1177 Capsules; OLT1177 Capsules are an experimental drug.
Placebo Comparator: Placebo Capsules; A total of 1 patient in each cohort will receive Placebo Capsules: Cohort 1 will receive a single placebo capsule; Cohort 2 will receive three placebo capsules; Cohort 3 will receive ten placebo capsules (seven days apart); Cohort 4 will receive a single placebo capsule QD for 8 days; Cohort 5 will receive three placebo capsules QD for 8 days; Cohort 6 will receive ten placebo capsules QD for 8 days	Drug: Placebo Capsules; Placebo Capsules are identical in all ways to the study drug, but contain no active pharmaceutical ingredient.
