Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Non-smoking, male or female, age ≥18 years and ≤55 years old at the time of informed consent (Note: To be considered non-smokers, participants must have discontinued smoking for at least 4 weeks before dosing.)
* Body mass index (BMI) ≥18 and \<32 kilograms per meters squared (kg/m\^2) at Screening

Exclusion Criteria:

* Females who are breastfeeding or pregnant at Screening or Baseline (as documented by a positive beta-human chorionic gonadotropin \[β-hCG\] or human chorionic gonadotropin \[hCG\] test with a minimum sensitivity of 25 International Units per liter (IU/L) or equivalent units of β-hCG \[or hCG\]). A separate baseline assessment is required if a negative screening pregnancy test was obtained more than 72 hours before the first dose of study drug.
* Males who have not had a successful vasectomy (confirmed azoospermia) or they and their female partners do not meet the criteria (i.e., not of childbearing potential or practicing highly effective contraception throughout the study period or for 5 times the half-life of the study drug plus 90 days after study drug discontinuation). No sperm donation is allowed during the study period and for 5 times the half-life of the study drug plus 90 days after study drug discontinuation.
* Participants with history of seizures, including those experienced in childhood
* Any history of gastrointestinal surgery that may affect pharmacokinetic profiles of E2730, e.g., hepatectomy, nephrectomy, and digestive organ resection

A history of risk factors for torsade de pointes (e.g., heart failure, hypokalemia, family history of long QT Syndrome) or the use of concomitant medications that prolonged the QT/QTc interval
* Persistent systolic blood pressure (BP) \>139 or \<90 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) or diastolic BP \>89 or \<50 mmHg at Screening or Baseline
