Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Parts A and B: Safety and Tolerability as Assessed by Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [From Day 1 up to Day 25]

  2. Part B: Safety and Tolerability as Assessed by Number of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Findings in Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) Responses [From Day 1 up to Day 25]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Parts A and B: Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve During a Dosing Interval (AUCtau) of VX-708 [From Day 1 up to Day 25]

  2. Part B: Pain Tolerance Threshold (PTT) for the Cold Pressor Test [From Day 1 up to Day 11]
