Primary purpose: TREATMENT

Brief summary: The main goals of this study are: 1) To assess the relative bioavailability of a single oral dose of 400 mg maribavir commercial (marketed) tablet formulation administered with a low-fat/low-calorie meal relative to administration under fasting conditions. 2) To assess the relative bioavailability of a single oral dose of 400 mg maribavir commercial (marketed) tablet formulation administered with a high-fat/high calorie meal relative to administration under fasting conditions.

A single dose of 400 mg maribavir (commercial \[marketed\] tablet formulation) will be administered orally under 3 different feeding conditions:

1. Fasting (Treatment A),
2. Fed following a low-fat/low-calorie meal (Treatment B), and
3. Fed following a high fat/high-calorie meal (Treatment C).

There will be a washout period of a minimum of 72 hours between each single dose of investigational drug (ID) administration on Day 1 in each treatment cycle of 3 days.

Pharmacokinetic samples will be collected at pre-dose and up to 36 hours post-dose in each treatment period.

Safety and tolerability will be assessed throughout the study by Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and clinical laboratory evaluations.
