Interventions
ARM: Experimental: Part 1: Single Ascending Dose (SAD) Cohort Participants will receive a single dose of JNJ-90858638 orally in a fasted or fed state. The high-fat, high-calorie meal will consist of 800-1000 total kilocalorie (kcal) with approximately 500-600 kcal (greater than [>] 50 percent [%]) derived from fat. SAD has 5 planned fasted cohorts, 1 fasted and food effect cohort and 2 optional cohorts; an optional additional food effect cohort, if required. Each participant will participate in 1 cohort only. ASSIGNED INTERVENTION: Drug: JNJ-90858638 JNJ-90858638 will be administered orally. The starting dose for SAD will be 5 milligram (mg); incremental doses are unknown but will be based on PK and safety from preceding cohorts. There is a projected maximum dose of 100 mg. It will be administered by medical professionals including registered nurses. ARM: Experimental: Part 2: Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) Cohort Participants will receive oral doses of JNJ-90858638 once daily for 28 days in MAD in an ascending fashion in a fasted or fed based (standard meal) state; the dosing regimen will be confirmed based on SAD pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety data. The standard meal will consist of 500-800 kcal with approximately 25-50% of kcal derived from fat. A total of 6 cohorts are planned for Part 2 (4 escalating cohorts [Cohorts 1 to 4] and 2 optional cohorts [Cohorts 5 and 6]). Each participant will participate in 1 cohort only ASSIGNED INTERVENTION: Drug: JNJ-90858638 JNJ-90858638 will be administered orally. The starting dose for MAD will be selected based on PK and safety data from the preceding SAD part. It will be administered by medical professionals including registered nurses.
