Brief summary

The main aim of this study is to find out how the body of a healthy Chinese adult processes TAK-279 (pharmacokinetics). Other aims are to learn about side effects and how well TAK-279 is tolerated when given to healthy Chinese Adults. Participants will receive either TAK-279 or a placebo on Day 1 and from Day 6 to Day 19. Blood samples will be taken at different timepoints throughout the study participation. Participants will need to adhere to certain lifestyle restrictions during the study. This also includes eating and drinking restrictions. During the study, participants will need to stay at the clinic for 25 days.

Interventions

TAK-279 oral tablet.

DRUGPlacebo

TAK-279 30 mg or 60 mg (2\*30mg) matching placebo tablet.
