Inclusion criteria

* Healthy male and female volunteers who gave their written consent by signing the Informed Consent Form * Subjects in the age between 18 and 55 years old with normal weight as determined by a body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 30 kg/m\^2, with a body weight of at least 50 kg for male subjects or 45 kg for female subjects * Subject has clinical laboratory test results within the reference ranges of the testing laboratory or outside the reference range of the laboratory but considered as not clinically significant by the Investigator * Subjects has blood pressure (BP) and pulse within normal range in a supine position after 5 minutes rest * Subject's electrocardiogram (ECG) is considered normal or abnormal but clinically non significant * Female subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective method of birth control during the study and for a period of 6 months after dosing of IMP

Exclusion criteria

* Subject has any medical or psychiatric condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could jeopardize or would compromise the subject's ability to participate in this study: Subject has any acute or chronic illness which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may place the subject at risk because of participation in the study. Subject has any clinically relevant abnormal findings in physical examination, laboratory tests, vital signs, or ECG, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may place the subject at risk because of participation in the study. * Tests positive for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-1 or-2 antibodies, Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) surface antigen, or Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) antibody at Screening * Any of the following hematological function tests at the Screening Visit: Hemoglobin \<111g/L (for women) or \<113g/L (for men) * Absolute neutrophil count \<1.5x10\^9/L (\<1000/mm\^3); Platelets \<150x10\^9/L * Female subject who is breastfeeding, pregnant, or plans to become pregnant during the study or within 6 months following the final dose of the IMP For subjects enrolled in the cohorts where the skin biopsies will be performed (Cohort 7 onward), the following
