On Study Day 28, any abnormal safety labs will be reviewed by study physician and be determined not to meet the exclusion criteria before administration of the second dose of TMC207. Rifabutin 300mg (Group 1) or rifampin 600mg (Group 2) will be administered once daily during Period 2 from Study Day 20 through Study Day 41. The primary endpoint for the study (pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of TMC207 (and its M2 metabolite) will be determined on the final study visit, Day 57 (28 days after the last TMC207 dose in Period 2).
