- AE and SAE [ Time Frame: Single dose 29 days; Multiple dose 39 days ]TEAE and SAE will be summarized by dose grouping based on systematic organ Classification (SOC), preferred term (PT) and severity, as well as their relationship to the study drug. Subjects who reported multiple adverse events within the same SOC and PT could only be counted once, according to the highest severity level.
- Vital signs [ Time Frame: Single dose 29 days; Multiple dose 39 days ]Descriptive statistics summarizing changes in heart rate will be compared between baseline levels at each predetermined point in time.
- Vital signs [ Time Frame: Single dose 29 days; Multiple dose 39 days ]Descriptive statistics summarizing changes in sitting blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) will be compared between baseline levels at each predetermined point in time.
- Vital signs [ Time Frame: Single dose 29 days; Multiple dose 39 days ]Descriptive statistics summarizing changes in body temperature will be compared between baseline levels at each predetermined point in time.
- 12-lead ECG [ Time Frame: Single dose 29 days; Multiple dose 39 days ]
The number of results of heart rate, QT, QTcF and PR interval will be collected.
Descriptive statistics summarizing changes of parameters above will be compared between baseline levels at each predetermined point in time.
- Laboratory inspection [ Time Frame: Single dose 29 days; Multiple dose 39 days ]The number of results of blood routine examination, Blood Biochemical and routine urine examination will be collected Descriptive statistics summarizing changes of parameters above will be compared with baseline levels at each predetermined point in time.
- Vital signs [ Time Frame: Single dose 29 days; Multiple dose 39 days ]Descriptive statistics summarizing changes in respiration will be compared between baseline levels at each predetermined point in time.
- Assessment of topical skin tolerance [ Time Frame: Single dose 29 days; Multiple dose 39 days ]The number of erythema, burning/tingling, dryness, pruritus, desquamation of skin and hyperpigmentation after dosing.
