Group A: IDX719 then IDX719/Simeprevir
Group B: Simeprevir then IDX719/Simeprevir
Group C: IDX719
Group D: IDX719/Simeprevir
Group E: High-Fat then Low-Fat PK
Group F: Low-Fat then High-Fat PK
Healthy participants take IDX719 150 mg once daily (QD) on Days 1-7 and IDX719 150 mg QD + simeprevir 150 mg QD on Days 8-14.
Healthy participants take simeprevir 150 mg QD on Days 1-7 and IDX719 150 mg QD + simeprevir 150 mg QD on Days 8-14.
Healthy participants take IDX719 150 mg QD on Days 1-14.
Participants from Groups A and B will be asked to return for Group D. Participants take IDX719 and simeprevir QD on Days 1-7 to determine the impact of food on single-dose (on Day 1) and steady state (Day 7) PK.
Participants from Group C will return to determine the PK of IDX719 after high-fat (Day 1) and low-fat (Day 7) meals (Days 2-6 are drug-free washout).
Participants from Group C will return to determine the PK of IDX719 after low-fat (Day 1) and high-fat (Day 7) meals (Days 2-6 are drug-free washout).
