Clinically significant Grade 2 toxicity, such as angina, arrhythmia, seizure, dyspnea, rash with significant blistering or desquamation, or other event deemed significant by either the investigator. 2. ≥Grade 3 anemia (excluding participants with baseline \<9.0 g/dL) or hemoglobin (Hb) decrease \>1.0 g/dL if baseline Hb \<9.0 g/dL, confirmed by 2 independent measurements. 3. ≥ Grade 3 cytokine release syndrome/acute infusion reaction. 4. Other ≥ Grade 3 hematological or non-hematological toxicity.
Time frame: Baseline to Cycle 1 of Part A
Population: MTD was not determined in this study, so zero participants were analyzed.
