Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. Must be 18 to 50 years inclusive, at the time of signing informed consent.
2. Capable of giving signed informed consent as described in the protocol which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent and in the protocol in the opinion of the investigator.
3. Subjects who are healthy as determined by medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination, cardiac monitoring using 12-lead ECG, and laboratory tests in the opinion of the investigator.
4. Female or male

a. Female subjects i. A female subject is eligible to participate if
* of non-childbearing potential defined as premenarchal, or premenopausal with documented (subject's self-report) bilateral tubal ligation or occlusion, bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, or hysterectomy; or
* postmenopausal, documented as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea prior to Day 1, and in questionable cases, a blood sample at screening with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) consistent with postmenopausal status (refer to laboratory reference ranges for confirmatory levels); or
* of childbearing potential, not pregnant, not lactating and agrees to use one of the following acceptable methods of contraception until 30 days after the last dose of study drug:

* total abstinence from sexual activities, or
* double barrier method, or
* an intrauterine device or system, or
* established use of hormonal contraceptives including oral, implantable, injectable or transdermal contraceptives.

b. Male subjects i. Male subjects with female partners of childbearing potential must comply withthe following contraception requirements from the time of study drug until90 days after the last dose of study drug administration.
* total abstinence, or
* vasectomy with documentation (subject's self-report) of azoospermia 90 days prior to Day 1 (without reversal surgery), or
* barrier form of contraception (condom), and
* female partner established user of an intrauterine device/system or hormonal contraceptives including oral, implantable, injectable or transdermal contraceptives.

ii. Male subjects must also agree not to donate sperm until 90 days after dosing.
5. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test on Day -1.

8. History of depression or suicidal thoughts and/or behaviors within 1-year prior to screening in the opinion of the Investigator and assessed by S-STS at screening.
9. Has an average weekly alcohol intake that exceeds 10 units per week within 30 days prior to screening. One unit: 1 glass of wine 5 oz or 150 mL; 12 oz or 360 mL of beer; 1.5 oz or 45 mL of distilled spirits.

12. Positive drug testing at screening and/or at Day -1. Subjects should refrain from eating poppy seed-containing food (e.g., poppy cake) at least 3 days before admission as this can falsify the urine drug screen.
13. History of intolerance to IM injection.
14. Any conditions which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for enrollment or could interfere with the subject's participation in or completion of the study.
15. Donated more than 500 mL of blood within 90 days before study drug administration.
16. History of clinically significant chronic liver disease from any cause, presence of hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis C virus antibody or human immunodeficiency virus antibody.
17. History of hepatic decompensation, including ascites, hepatic encephalopathy and/or esophageal or gastric varices.
18. Positive COVID test on Day -1 (test conducted as per site standard procedures).
19. Is unable to refrain from or anticipates the use of any medication, including prescription and non-prescription drugs or herbal remedies (e.g., St. John's wort, milk thistle) or supplement supra-therapeutic doses of vitamins within 14 days (or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer) prior to Day 1 and throughout the study, except for those approved by the Investigator, Medical Monitor, and/or Brii Biosciences.
20. Use of antiplatelet, anticoagulant, or antiepileptic medications within 30 days prior to Day 1 and throughout the study.

23. The subject has participated in a clinical trial and has received an investigational product within the following time period prior to the first dosing day in the current study: 30 days or 5 half-lives of the investigational product (whichever is longer).
