Description

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Body mass index of 18.0 to 30.0 kilogram per meter square (Kg/m^2)
  • A total body weight greater than (>) 50 kilogram (kg)
  • Nonsmoker or ex-smoker for at least 12 months before screening

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of febrile or acute illness that has not fully resolved by 14 days before the first dose of study drug
  • Any condition possibly affecting drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion
