A male subject with female partners of child-bearing potential must agree to use contraception during the treatment period and for at least 6 weeks, corresponding to time needed to eliminate study treatment plus an additional 90 days (a spermatogenesis cycle) for study treatments with teratogenic potential after the last dose of study treatment and refrain from donating sperm during this period. A female subject is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: Pre-menopausal females with one of the following; documented tubal ligation; documented hysteroscopic tubal occlusion procedure with follow-up confirmation of bilateral tubal occlusion or documented bilateral salpingectomy; hysterectomy; documented Bilateral Oophorectomy. Postmenopausal will be defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea without an alternative medical cause. Post-menopausal status will be confirmed by a simultaneous follicle-stimulating hormone and estradiol levels test. * Capable of giving signed informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Evidence of a clinically significant (as judged by the Investigator) condition or abnormality (other than the indication being studied) that might compromise safety or the interpretation of trial efficacy or safety endpoints. * Poor general condition where any delay in treatment cannot be tolerated per discretion of the Investigator. * A previous episode of treated tuberculosis less than 3 years ago. * Clinically significant evidence of extrathoracic tuberculosis (miliary tuberculosis, abdominal tuberculosis, urogenital tuberculosis, osteoarthritic tuberculosis, tuberculosis meningitis), as judged by the Investigator. * Corrected QT Interval \> 450 milliseconds. * History of allergy to any of the trial investigational product/s or related substances as confirmed by the clinical judgement of the Investigator. * History of photosensitivity. * Known or suspected, current or history of within the past 2 years, alcohol or drug abuse, that is, in the opinion of the Investigator, sufficient to compromise the safety or cooperation of the subject. * HIV infected subjects: having a cluster of differentiation 4+ (CD4+) count \<350 cells per microliter; or having received antiretroviral therapy medication within the last 90 days; or having received oral or intravenous antifungal medication within the last 90 days; or with an AIDS-defining opportunistic infection or malignancies (except pulmonary tuberculosis). * Participated in other clinical studies with investigational agents within 8 weeks prior to the first dosing day in the current study. * Subjects with diabetes (Type 1 or 2), point of care glycated hemoglobin above 6.5 millimoles per mole, or random glucose over 11.1 millimoles per liter will be excluded from cohorts undergoing FDGPET/CT.

This will be judged through clinical history taking. * Women who are susceptible to heavy periods or heavy vaginal bleeding or spotting will be excluded in order to minimize blood loss and avoid confounding effects on the interpretation of hematology parameters.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change in log10 Colony Forming Units (CFU) Per (/) Milliliter (mL) of Direct Respiratory Sputum Samples From Baseline to Day 14

The Early Bactericidal Activity was determined by change in log10CFU/mL of sputum over the period Baseline to Day 14. Log(CFU) was calculated as: Log(CFU/mL)=log10(mean\[Total count 1:Total Count 2\]\*2\*5\*10\^Dilution); where total counts 1 and 2 were bacterial counts from plates 1 and 2 respectively; \*2 represents the 1:1 dilution of the original specimen and \*5 represents the 0.2 mL (200 microliter) inoculation of the specimen; Dilution is the dilution factor for that plate. Baseline (Day 0) was defined as the mean of Day -2 and Day -1; if data was available at only one of these timepoints then that value was used as Baseline.

Time frame: Baseline and up to Day 14

Vital signs were measured in a semi-supine or supine position after 5 minutes rest. The PCI range for vital signs were: systolic blood pressure (SBP) (lower: \<85 and upper: \>160 milliliter of mercury \[mmHg\]); diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (lower: \<45 and upper: \>100 mmHg); heart rate (lower: \<40 and upper: \>110 beats per minute \[bpm\]); respiratory rate (lower: 10 and upper: 28 breaths per minutes) and temperature (lower: \<35 and upper: \>37.9 degrees Celsius). Participants were counted in the worst-case category that their value changed to (low, within range or no change, or high), unless there was no change in their category. Participants whose value category was unchanged (e.g. High to High), or whose value became within range, were recorded in the "To w/in Range or No Change category". Participants were counted twice if the participant had values that changed "To Low" and "To High".

Number of Participants With Worst Case Post-Baseline Abnormal Electrocardiogram (ECG) Findings

Twelve lead ECGs were obtained using an ECG machine that automatically calculated the heart rate and measured PR, QRS, uncorrected QT and QT duration corrected for heart rate by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) intervals. Abnormal findings were categorized as clinically significant and not clinically significant. Clinically significant abnormal laboratory findings are those which are not associated with the underlying disease, unless judged by the investigator to be more severe than expected for the participant's condition. Data for number of participants with abnormal clinically significant ECG findings for worst case post-Baseline has been presented.

Time frame: Up to Day 28 (follow-up visit)

Change From Baseline in QT Interval Corrected Using Fridericia's Formula (QTcF)

Baseline value was the latest assessment prior to Day 1 dose with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits and the mean of the triplicate measurements at any given time point was used as the value for that time point. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline value from the post-dose visit (Day 14) value.
