Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse EventsFrom Baseline until End-of-Treatment visit (up to Day 22)An Adverse Event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study medication, whether or not considered related to the study medication. An AE could, therefore, be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study medication.
Number of Participants With Serious Adverse EventsFrom Baseline until End-of-Treatment visit (up to Day 22)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 an 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
Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events Leading to Discontinuation of the StudyFrom Baseline until End-of-Treatment visit (up to Day 22)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.
