Brief summary: This will be a Phase 1, single-center, randomized, balanced, single-dose, two-period, two-sequence, crossover, open-label study to evaluate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of PA-824. The hypothesis to be tested in this study is that the rate and extent of absorption of two doses of PA-824 (50mg or 400 mg and 200mg) are the same after a high-calorie, high-fat meal as compared with after a minimum 10-hour fast.

For each of the two dose levels 16 subjects with approximately 8 men and 8 women, will be enrolled for a total of 32 subjects.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Have the ability to understand the requirements of the study, have provided written informed consent (as evidenced by signature on an informed consent document approved by an IRB), and agree to abide by the study restrictions.
2. Be healthy non-tobacco/nicotine using (6-month minimum) adult subjects, 19 to 50 years of age, inclusive.
3. Be medically healthy subjects with clinically insignificant Screening results (among laboratory profiles, medical histories, ECGs, or physical exam), as deemed by the Principal Investigator.
4. Have a body mass index of 18 to 29.
5. Have negative urine test results for alcohol and drugs of abuse such as amphetamines, cannabinoids, and cocaine metabolites at both Screening and Check-in.

8. At Screening blood pressure greater than 140/90 mm Hg or below 95/65 mm Hg (supine, after a minimum 5-minute supine rest)
9. At either Screening or the pre-dose read before the first dose, a QTcB (Bazett's correction) \>450ms for men and women, calculated from the average of triplicate reads collected at one sitting.
10. At either Screening or the pre-dose read before the first dose, a QTcF (Fridericia's correction) \>450ms for men and women, calculated from the average of triplicate reads collected at one sitting.

16. For males, planning to father a child within 12 weeks of cessation of treatment.
17. History of lens opacity or evidence of lens opacity on slit lamp ophthalmologic examination.
18. Any contraindication to the use of nitroimidazoles or prior treatment with PA-824 or OPC-67683.
