Electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters included beginning of the P wave until the beginning of the QRS complex (PR) interval, time from ECG Q wave to the end of the S wave corresponding to ventricle depolarization (QRS) interval, and QTc using Fridericia's formula (QTcF). Criteria for ECG changes meeting potential clinical concern included: PR interval \>=300 milliseconds (msec) or \>=25% increase when baseline is \>200 msec and \>=50% increase when baseline is less than or equal to (=\<)200 msec; QRS interval \>=140 msec or \>=50% increase from baseline (IFB); and and QTcF \>=450 to \<480, 480 to \<500 and \>=500 msec. The number of participants with potentially clinically significant ECG findings at any visit were reported.
