OR Agree to practice true abstinence, when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant; Agree to refrain from egg donation and in vitro fertilization during the entire study period and through 90 days after the last dose of study drug;
- Male participants, even if surgically sterilized (i.e., status postvasectomy), who:
- Agree to practice effective barrier contraception and avoid sperm donation during the entire study period and through 90 days after the last dose of study drug, OR Agree to practice true abstinence, when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant;

Assessment may be repeated once if deemed appropriate by the investigator;
- Part A: Additional Inclusion Criteria for Healthy Adult Participants:
- Body mass index (BMI, weight \[kg\] / height2 \[m2\]) of 18 to 26 kg/m2, inclusively, with a minimum body weight of 50 kg for males, and 45 kg for females;
- Part B: Additional Inclusion Criteria for ALS Patients:

- Participants on riluzole or sodium phenylbutyrate/taurursodiol must be on a stable dose for at least 30 days prior to study enrollment; or patients on edaravone must have completed at least 2 cycles of dosing with edaravone at the time of screening or have not taken edaravone for at least 30 days prior to screening and not planning to start edaravone during the course of the study. Two cycles of dosing are defined as having completed Cycle 1 infusion, which is 14 consecutive days of intravenous (IV) edaravone followed by 14 days off edaravone, and Cycle 2, which is 10 out of 14 days of IV edaravone;
- Slow vital capacity (SVC) ≥ 60% of predicted within 1 month prior to Treatment Day 1.
- Exclusion Criteria
