* Female subject must agree not to breastfeed at Screening and throughout the study period, and for 28 days after the final study drug administration.
* Female subject must not donate ova starting at Screening, throughout the study period, and for 28 days after the final study drug administration

* Subject meets the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 1990 fibromyalgia diagnostic criteria at Screening:

* Widespread pain for at least 3 months, defined as the presence of all of the following: pain on right and left sides of the body, pain above and below the waist, and pain in the axial skeleton (cervical spine or anterior chest or thoracic spine or low back) must be present.
* Pain in at least 11 of 18 tender point sites on digital palpation. Digital palpation should be performed with an approximate force of 4 kg.
* Subject meets the ACR 2010 fibromyalgia diagnostic criteria at Screening:

* Widespread pain index (WPI) ≥ 7 and Symptom severity (SS) scale score ≥ 5 or WPI 3-6 and SS scale score ≥ 9.
* Symptoms have been present at a similar level for at least 3 months.
* The subject does not have a disorder that would otherwise explain the pain.
* Subject has a pain score ≥ 4 on the revised fibromyalgia impact questionnaire revised (FIQR) pain item at Screening.
* Subject is compliant with daily pain recordings during the Baseline Diary Run-In period, as defined by the completion of a minimum of 5 of 7 daily average pain ratings and agrees to complete daily diaries throughout the duration of the study.
* Subject has a mean daily average pain score ≥ 4 and ≤ 9 on an 11-point 0 to 10 NRS as recorded in the subject e-diary during the Baseline Diary Run-In period, and meeting pre-specified criteria for daily average pain scores.
* Subject agrees to use only acetaminophen as rescue medication for fibromyalgia pain throughout the course of the trial (up to 1000 mg per dose and not to exceed 3000 mg/day).
* Subject agrees not to initiate or change any non-pharmacologic interventions (including normal daily exercise routines, chiropractic care, physical therapy, psychotherapy, and massage therapy) during the course of the study. Non-pharmacologic interventions must be stable for a minimum of 30 days prior to Screening. The subject agrees to maintain usual level of activity for the duration of the study.
* Subject is capable of completing study assessments and procedures.
* Subject agrees not to participate in another interventional study from Screening through the End of Study (EOS) visit.

Exclusion Criteria

* Subject has received an investigational therapy within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to Screening.
* Subject has had no meaningful improvement, from 2 or more prior treatments (commercially available) for fibromyalgia (in at least 2 pharmacologic classes).
* Subject has had known hypersensitivity or intolerance to the use of acetaminophen or associated formulation components; known hypersensitivity to the formulation components of ASP0819.
* Subject has pain due to diabetic peripheral neuropathy, post-herpetic neuralgia, traumatic injury, prior surgery, complex regional pain syndrome, or other source of pain that would confound or interfere with the assessment of the subject's fibromyalgia pain or require excluded therapies during the subject's study participation.
* Subject has infectious or inflammatory arthritis (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis and gout), autoimmune disease (e.g., systemic lupus erythematosus), or other widespread rheumatic disease other than fibromyalgia.
* Subject has a current, untreated moderate or severe major depressive disorder as assessed by the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I.).

* Subject has a resting systolic blood pressure (SBP) \> 180 mmHg or \< 90 mmHg, and/or a sitting diastolic blood pressure (DBP) \> 100 mmHg at Screening. These assessments may be repeated once, after a reasonable time period (but within the Screening period).
* Subject has a clinically significant abnormality on 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) at Screening or Visit 3 (Randomization). If the ECG is abnormal, an additional ECG can be carried out. If this also gives an abnormal result, the subject must be excluded.
* Subject has a history of myocardial infarction (within 6 months of Screening), unexplained syncope, cardiac arrest, unexplained cardiac arrhythmias or torsade de pointes, structural heart disease or a family history of Long time from electrocardiogram Q wave to the end of the T wave (QT) Syndrome.
