Number of Participants Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence (including a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding) that occurred in the protocol-specified AE reporting period. A TEAE included medical conditions, signs, and symptoms not previously observed in the participant that emerged during the protocol-specified AE reporting period, including signs or symptoms associated with pre-existing underlying conditions that were not present prior to the AE reporting period. A SAE included AEs that met one or more of the following criteria/outcomes: death, lifethreatening, in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, and congenital anomaly/birth defect.

Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormal 12-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) Findings

A standard 12-lead ECG was performed following dosing in a supine position for approximately 5 minutes. ECGs were taken prior to vital sign assessments, circulatory access cannulation, and blood draws when possible. Clinical significance was determined by the investigator.
