Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Intervention: Extended release (ER) Dapagliflozin (LYN-045)
Administration: oral (capsules)

A total of 10 subjects are planned to be enrolled, 2 in the sentinel group and 8 in the main group. All subjects will receive 3 doses of Immediate release (IR) dapagliflozin 10 mg in the inpatient unit, Dose 1 on Day -3, Dose 2 on Day -2, and Dose 3 on Day -1. Following that, all subjects will receive 2 doses of LYN-045 70 mg. Dose 1 will be administered in the inpatient unit on Day 1, dose 2 of LYN-045 will be administered on Day 8. The mouth cavity is inspected after administration of the capsule.

A review of safety information will be performed after the 2 sentinel subjects complete 2 days of observation after dosing with the initial dose of LYN-045. The safety data will be reviewed by the Investigator to determine whether enrollment of subjects in the main group may proceed.
