Multiple Dose Study to Evaluate Drug-drug Interactions, Safety and Tolerability of NDC-002 in Healthy Volunteers

This is an Open-label, One-sequence, Three-period, Multiple-dose Study and the goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate in health Volunteers.

The main question[s] it aims to answer are:

• Drug-drug Interactions
• Safety
• Tolerability

The study consisted of Three-period: Period 1 which repeated administration of NDC-002C for 7 days and Period 2 which repeated administration of NDC-002A for 7 days, followed by administration of NDC-002B for 8 days and Period 3 which repeated concomitant administration of NDC-002B and NDC-002C for 7 days.
