A Study of a Single Ascending Dose Study of DS-7011a in Healthy Subjects

This study will assess the safety, PK, and PD properties of single ascending intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) doses of DS-7011a in healthy participants.

This study will be conducted in 3 stages:

• Stage 1 - single ascending IV dose cohorts of DS-7011a (ie, up to 6 dose levels will be assessed starting at 0.1 mg/kg);
• Stage 2 - single ascending SC cohorts of DS-7011a (ie, up to 3 dose levels centered around the estimated therapeutic dose confirmed in Stage 1 will be assessed); and
• Stage 3 - a single IV cohort of DS-7011a in healthy participants of Japanese ethnicity (ie, 1 dose level at the estimated therapeutic dose as confirmed in Stage 1 will be assessed).

Inclusion criteria

• Male and female participants 18 to 45 years of age (inclusive), with a body mass index (BMI) of 18 kg/m^2 to 30 kg/m^2 (inclusive) at Screening.
