Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events From Baseline to Safety Follow-up (up to Day 67)

Time frame: From Baseline to Safety Follow-up (up to Day 67)

Percentage of Participants With Serious Adverse Events From Baseline to Safety Follow-up (up to Day 67)

A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: * Results in death * Is life-threatening * Requires in patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization * Is a congenital anomaly or birth defect * Is infection that requires treatment parenteral antibiotics * Other important medical events which based on medical or scientific judgement may jeopardize the patients, or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the above.

Time frame: From Baseline to Safety Follow-up (up to Day 67)

Percentage of Participants With Treatment Related Adverse Events From Baseline to Safety Follow-up (up to Day 67)

An Adverse Event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.

Time frame: From Baseline to Safety Follow-up (up to Day 67)

Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events Leading to Discontinuation of the Study From Baseline to Safety Follow-up (up to Day 67)

An Adverse Event is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or trial subject that is administered a drug or biologic (medicinal product) or that is using a medical device. The event does not necessarily have a causal relationship with that treatment or usage. The results of this Primary Outcome Measure are summarized from the Adverse Event pages of the Case Report Forms.
