Open-Label Safety Expansion (OSE)
Participants in multiple cohorts and treatment periods will receive single doses of GDC-0134 oral capsules under fed/fasting conditions. To study the effect of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) medication rabeprazole on PK properties of GDC-0134, few participants may receive rabeprazole 20 milligrams (mg).
Participants in multiple cohorts and treatment periods will receive placebo matching to GDC-0134 under fed/fasting conditions. Few participants may receive rabeprazole 20 mg.
Participants will receive multiple doses of GDC-0134 for 28 days. To study the interactions between GDC-0134 and other drugs, some participants may receive single doses of midazolam and caffeine at various time points.
