          2. Signs and dates a written, informed consent form and any required privacy
             authorization prior to the initiation of any study procedures including requesting
             that a participant fasts for any laboratory evaluations.

          3. Weighs at least 45 kilogram (kg) and has a body mass index (BMI) between 18.0 and 30.0
             kilogram per square meter (kg/m^2), inclusive at Screening.

          4. Male participant who is nonsterilized and sexually active with a female partner of
             childbearing potential agrees to use adequate contraception from signing of informed
             consent throughout the duration of the study and for 90 days after 5 half-lives have
             elapsed since last dose of study drug. This should be interpreted as 90 days from the
             Follow-up Call/Visit unless data indicates otherwise.

          5. Female participant of childbearing potential who is sexually active with a
             nonsterilized male partner agrees to routinely use highly effective contraception with
             low user dependency from signing of informed consent, throughout the duration of the
             study, and for 30 days after 5 half-lives have elapsed since the last dose of study
             drug. This should be interpreted as 30 days from the Follow-up Call/Visit unless data
             indicates otherwise.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          1. Has received any investigational compound within 90 days prior to the first dose of
             study drug.

          2. Is an immediate family member, study site employee, or is in a dependent relationship
             with a study site employee who is involved in the conduct of this study (example,

             increase risk of seizure or lower the seizure threshold, or potentially confound the
             study results. It is the responsibility of the investigator to assess the clinical
             significance; however, consultation with the Takeda Medical Monitor may be warranted.

          4. Has a known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation of TAK-653.

         11. Has a history of cerebral arteriosclerosis.
