Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This study will enrol up to thirty-two (32) healthy male participants, aged 18 to 55 years, into up to four (4) cohorts. Withdrawn participants will only be replaced at the discretion of the Sponsor.

Up to 28 days before enrolment into the study, participants will be required to sign a consent form, after which screening assessments will be carried out.

Cohort 1 (8 participants) will receive once a day dosing of either ATN-249 100 mg (n=6, 2 x 50 mg capsule) or matching placebo (n=2) for 14 days, with an overnight fast for at least 10 hours prior to dosing.

Cohort 2 (8 participants) will receive once a day dosing of either ATN-249 150 mg (n=6, 3 x 50 mg capsule) or matching placebo (n=2) for 14 days, with an overnight fast for at least 10 hours prior to dosing.

An optional Cohort 3 (8 participants) will receive twice a day 12h apart dosing of either ATN-249 100 mg (n=6, 2 x 50 mg capsule BID) or matching placebo (n=2) for 14 days, with an overnight fast for at least 10 hours prior to the AM dose and at least 2 hours prior to the PM dose.

An optional Cohort 4 (8 participants) will receive once a day dosing of either ATN-249 200 mg (n=6, 1 x 200 mg capsule QD) or matching placebo (n=2) for 14 days, with an overnight fast for at least 10 hours prior to the dosing.

Participants will remain on site from the day before dosing until review of the 48-hour post-final dose assessments. Dosing in Cohort 2 will not commence until SMC review of complete PK and safety data from Cohort 1.
Optional Cohort3 and/or optional Cohort 4 will be run depending on the PK results of Cohorts 1 and 2. Dosing in these optional Cohorts (3 and/or 4) will not commence until SMC review of complete PK and safety data from Cohort 2

The duration of the study is of approximately 7 weeks (this includes a 28-day screening period, one 16-day study period with 16 overnight stays and a follow up visit 7 days after the last dose of study medication). Adherence to study treatment will be verified by hand and mouth check.
