Time frame: From Baseline (Day 0) up to Week 21
Number of study participants with treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)
To assess safety and tolerability of study interventions. Adverse events (AEs) reported after first administration of study intervention will be designated as a TEAE.
Time frame: From Baseline (Day 0) up to Week 24
Change from baseline in blood pressure (BP)
