A Study of BMS-986521 in Healthy Volunteers

This study is looking for healthy adults to help evaluate a new drug called BMS-986521. Researchers want to understand how safe BMS-986521 is, how well your body tolerates it, and how much of the drug stays in your system. You might receive BMS-986521 or a placebo (an inactive substance, like a sugar pill). The study will also look at how food might affect the drug. To join, you must be between 18 and 80 years old, healthy, and meet specific weight and health criteria. The main goals are to track any side effects and serious side effects, and to monitor for any thoughts of self-harm, for up to about 40 days.

Study design
This is an interventional study involving 106 healthy participants. Participants will receive either BMS-986521 or a placebo.
