Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence and Number of Adverse Events (AEs)
Time Frame: up to 106 days for Single dose and 147 days for multiple doses
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial patient administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.The incidence and number of patients who experience an AE will be reported.
up to 106 days for Single dose and 147 days for multiple doses

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
