Brief summary

To investigate the bioequivalence of aripiprazole between administration of one ASC-01 tablet (aripiprazole 3 mg/sertraline 100 mg combination drug) and concomitant administration of one aripiprazole 3-mg tablet and two sertraline 50-mg tablets (Cohort 1). To investigate food effect on plasma pharmacokinetics of aripiprazole and sertraline by single oral administration of ASC-01 under a fasting or fed condition (Cohort 2).

Inclusion criteria

* Healthy male subject at the age between 20 and 40 at the time of informed consent * Subject has a body mass index (BMI = body weight \[kg\]/height \[m\]2) of ≥18.5 and \<25.0 kg/m2 at screening * Subject is providing consent for participation in this trial in writing prior to the start of the procedures related to this trial, and judged by the investigator or subinvestigator to be capable of observing procedures in this trial.

Exclusion criteria

* Subject has a clinically significant abnormality in physical findings at screening or in medical history that in the investigator's or subinvestigator's opinion may place the subject at risk or interfere with outcome variables including drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. * Subject is judged by the investigator or subinvestigator to be inappropriate for participation in this trial.
