Brief summary: The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of single and multiple oral doses of Hemay005 tablets in healthy Caucasian adult volunteers.

Detailed description: This is a phase I, single-arm, open-label ethno-bridging study. The study is being conducted to test a potential new treatment for Behçet's disease (BD) called Hemay005.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Hemay005 tablets after single and multiple oral doses in healthy Caucasian adult volunteers. The secondary objective of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic parameters (time to remove the study drug from blood) of Hemay005 tablets after single and multiple oral doses.

The results of Chinese healthy volunteers will be used as a historical control to compare the ethnic differences between Chinese and Caucasians.

Approximately 12 eligible healthy (Caucasian) adult participants (male: female = 1:1) will be enrolled in this study.

The participant will be screened to determine their suitability to take part in the study within 28 days before receiving a dose of the study treatment. There will be one confinement period in the clinic, which will start on the day before dosing with dosing on Day 1 and discharge on Day 11. The participant will be asked to attend the clinic for a final study visit on Day 20. This visit will be the end of the participation in this study.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Healthy adult male or female Caucasian participants (male: female = 1:1) between 18 and 55 years of age (both inclusive) at the time of signing the informed consent.
2. Body weight between 50 and 100 kg (both inclusive) for males or between 45 and 100 kg (both inclusive) for females; and body mass index (BMI) within 18-32 kg/m2 (both inclusive).
3. In good health as determined by screening tests. Good health is defined as having no clinically relevant abnormalities identified by a detailed medical history, full physical examination, vital signs (including measurement of body temperature, HR, blood pressure and respiratory rate), 12-lead ECG, and clinical laboratory tests.
4. Female participants must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and must use an effective contraception method from informed consent obtained to 180 days after last dose administration, with the exception of participants who have undergone sterilization in the preceding 3 months, or who are postmenopausal.

   A woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must undergo pregnancy testing prior to the first dose of the investigational medicinal product (IMP). The participant must be excluded from the study if the serum pregnancy test is positive. A postmenopausal state is defined as 12 months of amenorrhea without an alternative medical cause. In the absence of 12 months of amenorrhea, menopause may be confirmed by follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) measurement. Females on hormonal replacement therapy (HRT), where menopausal status is indeterminate, will be required to use a non-estrogen hormonal contraceptive method if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Participants must otherwise discontinue HRT to allow for confirmation of postmenopausal status prior to enrollment in the study.

   Males who are sexually active and who are partners of women of childbearing potential must agree to use an effective contraception from informed consent obtained to 180 days after last dose administration.
5. A negative result on urine drug screen (amphetamines/methamphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, cannabinoids, cocaine, opiates).
6. Provide written informed consent prior to undertaking any study-related procedures.
7. Must not be under any administrative or legal supervision or under institutionalization as per a regulatory or juridical order.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Any history or presence of clinically relevant cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, metabolic, hematological, neurological, musculoskeletal, rheumatological, psychiatric, systemic, ocular, or infectious disease, or signs of acute illness.

5. Known hypersensitivity to any component of the IMP formulation.
6. Any surgery within 1 months prior to the first dose.
7. Positive result on any of the following tests: hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B core antibodies (HBcAb) (for those with positive result on HbcAb, a HBV deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) test will be performed and those with positive HBV DNA results will be excluded), HCV antibody (HCVAb), anti-human immunodeficiency virus 1 and 2 antibodies.
8. History or presence of alcohol abuse (defined as alcohol consumption more than 2 units per day 6 months prior to the first dose, 1 unit=360 mL of beer or 45 mL of alcohol 40% and above or 150 mL of wine).
9. History of drug abuse including narcotic and psychiatric drugs within 1 year prior to screening or a positive drug abuse test result at screening. One repeat is allowed at the discretion of the study doctor in case of false positives.
10. Regular smoking (defined as more than 5 cigarettes or equivalent per week) within one year prior to the first dose, or unable to stop smoking from 48 hours prior to the first drug administration to the last time point for collecting PK blood samples (Day 11).
