No clinically significant abnormalities in vital signs, physical examination, laboratory tests, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), chest X-ray (posteroanterior view), or abdominal ultrasound at screening; 4. All subjects must be willing to use appropriate contraceptive measures from the screening period, throughout the trial drug administration period, and until one month after drug discontinuation; 5. Subjects must understand and comply with the study procedures, voluntarily participate, and sign the informed consent form.

Exclusion criteria

1. Subjects with serious systemic diseases, infectious diseases, or mental disorders that, in the investigator's opinion, make them unsuitable for participation in this study; 2. History of clinically significant ECG abnormalities or family history of long QT syndrome (grandparents, parents, and siblings); 3. Known or suspected history of allergy to the investigational drug or drugs with a similar chemical structure; 4. Presence of conditions that may affect drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion, including but not limited to any of the following: * History of inflammatory bowel disease, gastritis, gastrointestinal ulcer, gastrointestinal bleeding, or other clinically significant gastrointestinal abnormalities. * History of major gastrointestinal surgery (e.g., gastrectomy, gastrointestinal anastomosis, enterectomy, gastric bypass, gastric partitioning, or gastric banding). * History of clinically significant renal disease or impaired renal function, or laboratory abnormalities at screening. * Liver disease or laboratory abnormalities indicative of clinically significant hepatic impairment at screening. 5.
