Primary biliary cirrhosis 9. Subject has a history of any serious drug-induced hypersensitivity reaction (including, but not limited to, Stevens Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, or Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms \[DRESS\]) or any drug-related rash requiring hospitalization 10. History of AED-associated rash that involved conjunctiva or mucosae 11. History of more than one non-serious drug-related hypersensitivity reaction that required discontinuation of the medication 12.

History of cancer (judged not to be in full remission) or presence of cancer (except basal cell skin cancer or squamous cell skin cancer) as judged by the Investigator 14. Acute illness within 14 days prior to study drug administration unless mild in severity and approved by the Investigator and Sponsor's medical representative 15. Active infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) 16. Presence of active infection requiring antibiotics 17. Concomitant use of medications known to be linked with DRESS syndrome (including carbamazepine, lamotrigine, phenytoin, any sulfonamide \[e.g., sulfasalazine, dapsone, sulfamethoxazole\], minocycline and nevirapine, abacavir) should be excluded at least 4 weeks prior to dosing and up to 4 weeks post cenobamate dosing 18. Use of any prescription or non-prescription drugs, including over-the-counter medication, non-routine vitamins and herbal products within 2 weeks prior to study drug administration unless discussed and agreed with the Sponsor's medical representative in writing (Medication used to treat TEAEs does not lead to a compulsory exclusion of subjects) 19. Ingestion of alcohol within 72 hours prior to study drug administration and during inhouse period. Outside the in-house period, regular alcohol consumption below 24 units for males and 17 units for females per week (1 unit equals 250 mL of beer, 75 mL of wine or 25 mL of spirits) is allowed 20. Active smokers within the last 6 months 21. Consumption of an average of more than 5 servings (240 mL per serving) per day of coffee, cola, or other caffeinated beverage before screening. Subjects may not consume any caffeinated beverages from 48 hours prior to dosing until the end of the in-house stay on Day 5. 22. Participation in a clinical study involving administration of either an investigational or a marketed drug within 2 months or 7 half-lives (whichever is longer) before Screening 23. Donation or loss of more than 450 mL blood during the 3 months before the start of Screening 24. Female subjects who are pregnant, nursing, or planning to become pregnant during the study 25. Clinically significant renal disease (creatinine clearance \[CLCr\] \< 60 mL/min as calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault formula at Screening) 26. Positive serology for human immunodeficiency virus antibodies (anti-HIV-1/2) at Screening. 27. Positive urine drug screen (if not due to concomitant medication) or alcohol breath test at Screening and/or Day -1 28. Legal incapacity or limited legal capacity 29.

History of esophageal bleeding within the last 3 months prior to study drug administration. 2. Severe hepatic encephalopathy (Grade \> 2) or degree of central nervous system (CNS) impairment which the Investigator considers sufficiently serious to interfere with the informed consent, the conduct, the completion, or the results of this trial, or constitutes an unacceptable risk to the subject 3.
