Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - ADX-038
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo

Experimental: PART A - Active ADX-038 administered to HV - For each cohort in Part A (SAD), 8 participants will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio; 6 participants to active (ADX-038): 2 participants to control (matched placebo). Randomization will be on Day 1. Initially, 2 sentinel participants (1 active and 1 placebo) will be randomized and dosed. The sentinel participants will be evaluated for safety. The investigator's assessment and the independent medical monitor will decide upon the randomization and dosing of the 6 remaining participants (5 active and 1 placebo) according to the randomization schedule.

Placebo comparator: PART A- Placebo administered to HV - For each cohort in Part A (SAD), 8 participants will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio; 6 participants to active (ADX-038): 2 participants to control (matched placebo). Randomization will be on Day 1. Initially, 2 sentinel participants (1 active and 1 placebo) will be randomized and dosed. The sentinel participants will be evaluated for safety. The investigator's assessment and the independent medical monitor will decide upon the randomization and dosing of the 6 remaining participants (5 active and 1 placebo) according to the randomization schedule.

Experimental: PART B - ADX-038 administered to PNH participants - This will be initiated at the dose level determined by the Safety Review Committee from SAD in HVs. The treatment of HAE participants is an open-label study.
