A Phase 1, Randomized, Open-label, 2-way Crossover Study in Healthy East Asian and Caucasian Volunteers to Evaluate the Relative Bioavailability of A New Capsule Formulation of TG-2349 Compared to the Original Formulation of TG-2349 Oral Solution

1. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and relative bioavailability of TG-2349, given as
a new capsule formulation and as the original formulation of oral solution, after a
single oral dose of 400 mg under fed condition in healthy volunteers.

2. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of TG-2349 in healthy volunteers.

3. To evaluate the ethnic differences in PK and safety between East Asian and Caucasian
volunteers.

TG-2349 oral solution has been investigated in a phase I/IIa study (study number:
TG-2349-01) in healthy volunteers and patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) infection.
The study demonstrated that TG-2349 was safe and well-tolerated when given to healthy
volunteers at single oral doses up to 800 mg, and at five-consecutive daily oral doses up to
600 mg. Co-administration of TG-2349 with food resulted in a significant increase in
bioavailability, and therefore concomitant food intake with dosing is recommended.

To further advance the clinical development of TG-2349, a new capsule formulation was
developed to replace the current TG-2349 oral solution. The objectives of this study (study
number: TG-2349-02) are to evaluate the PK and relative bioavailability of TG-2349, given as
a new capsule formulation and as the original formulation of oral solution, after a single
oral dose of 400 mg under fed condition in healthy volunteers, and to evaluate the safety,
tolerability, and ethnic differences of the TG-2349 capsule formulation.
