The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and drug levels of BMS-986521 following single and multiple ascending doses of BMS-986521 in healthy adult participants, and to evaluate potential food effects on BMS-986521 exposure.

• Participants must have a body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 32 kg/m² (inclusive) and body weight of at least 50 kg.
• For Part B/Cohort 11 only: participants with stable cardiovascular conditions may be included if deemed suitable by the investigator.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Participants must not have any significant medical condition or history (renal, hepatic, hematologic, GI, endocrine, pulmonary, neurologic, or immunologic) that may affect drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion (ADME), or pose a risk to the participant.
• Participants must not have a history of rhabdomyolysis, cancer (except certain cured skin or cervical cancers), hematologic malignancy, or myelodysplastic syndrome.
• Participants must not have recent or current significant GI disease, major surgery, or medical interventions affecting ADME (except appendectomy or cholecystectomy).
