13. Alcohol dependency within 6 months before study entry.

14. Participant has a concurrent malignancy or malignancy within 3 years of enrollment, with the exception of adequately treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma, non-melanomatous skin cancer, or curatively resected cervical cancer.

16. Diagnosed with meningeal carcinomatosis.

17. Participants with brain or subdural metastases are not eligible, unless they have completed local therapy and have discontinued the use of corticosteroids for this indication for at least 4 weeks before starting treatment in this study. Any signs (example- radiologic) or symptoms of brain metastases must be stable for at least 4 weeks before starting study treatment.

18. Participant has a known intolerability to any oral antihistamine drug (only for Antihistamine Prophylactic Administration Part and Randomization Part).

19. Participant needs to receive systemic or topical usage of either antihistamine or corticosteroid during Cycle 1 (only for Randomization Part).

Note: The following uses of corticosteroids are permitted: inhaled sprays (example, for obstructive airways diseases), eye drops or local injections (example, intra-articular).

20. Participants initiated to receive drugs may cause rash 7 days prior to starting study drug.
