- History of any illness that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might confound the results of the study or poses an additional risk to the subject by their participation in the study.
- Surgery within the past 90 days prior to dosing as determined by the Investigator to be clinically relevant.
- History or presence of alcoholism or drug abuse within the past 2 years as determined by the Investigator to be clinically relevant.
- Hypersensitive or idiosyncratic reactions to compounds related to TBA-354 (e.g., nitroimidazoles such as metronidazole, etc.).
- Female subjects who are pregnant or lactating.
- Positive results for the urine drug/alcohol screen at screening or check-in.
- Positive urine cotinine at screening.
- Serum magnesium potassium, or calcium laboratory values outside of the normal range at screening.
- Positive results at screening for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg), or Hepatitis C antibodies (HCV).
- Seated blood pressure is less than 90/40 mmHg or greater than 140/90 mmHg at screening.
- Heart rate is lower than 40 bpm or higher than 99 bpm at screening.
Any electrocardiogram abnormality at Screening (as deemed by decision of the Investigator and the Sponsor's Medical Monitor).
NOTE: The following can be considered not clinically significant without consulting the Sponsor's Medical Monitor:
- Mild first degree A-V block (P-R interval <0.23 sec)
- Right or left axis deviation
- Incomplete right bundle branch block
- Isolated left anterior fascicular block (left anterior hemiblock) in younger athletic subjects
- QTcF interval >450 msec for males or >470 msec for females at screening, Day -2, Day -1, or Day 1 (pre-dose), or history of prolonged QT syndrome.
- Family history of Long-QT Syndrome or sudden death without a preceding diagnosis of a condition that could be causative of sudden death (such as known coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure or terminal cancer).
History of one or any combination of, the following:
- Seizures or seizure disorders
- Brain surgery.
- History of head injury in the last five years
- Any serious disorder of the CNS or related neurological system, particularly one that may lower the seizure threshold. v. History of seizures
- Use of any prescription medication within 14 days prior to dosing.
- Use of any over-the-counter (OTC) medication, including herbal products and vitamins, within the 7 days prior to dosing, except acetaminophen. Up to 3 grams per day of acetaminophen is allowed at the discretion of the Investigator prior to dosing.
- Use of any drugs or substances known to be significant inhibitors of Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and/or significant inhibitors or substrates of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and/or Organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) within 14 days prior to the first dose of study drug.
- Use of any drugs or substances known to be inducers of CYP enzymes and/or P-gp, including St. John's Wort, within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug.
- Use of any drugs or substance known to lower the seizure threshold.
- Blood donation or significant blood loss within 56 days prior to dosing.
- Plasma donation within 7 days prior to dosing.
- Participation in another clinical trial within 28 days prior to dosing.
- Prior treatment with investigational products pretomanid or OPC-67683.

Dose Formulation Comparison Cohort
50 mg TBA-354 for 14 days (two 25 mg once daily)
Placebo cohort for Dose Level 1
100 mg TBA-354 for 14 days (one 100 mg tablet once daily)
Placebo cohort for Dose Level 2
200 mg TBA-354 for 14 days (two 100 mg once daily)
Placebo cohort for Dose Level 3
All subjects in this cohort will receive two doses of the active drug. The first dose in three subjects will be a 100 mg TBA-354 tablet, followed 14 days later by a 100 mg dose of the TBA-354 suspension formulation. The first dose in the other three subjects will be 100 mgs of the TBA-354 suspension formulation, followed 14 days later by a 100 mg TBA-354 tablet dose. Placebo formulations will not be used in the dose formulation comparison cohort. Each dose will be administered orally with 200 ml of water after a minimum 8 hour overnight fast. Food will be given two hours after each dose.
