Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Signs and Symptoms/ Adverse Events (AEs)	Number of participants with treatment-emergent signs and symptoms/adverse events (including allergic reactions/hypersensitivity and local injection site reactions) will be reported. An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are defined as AEs with onset or worsening on or after date of first dose of study treatment.	Up to Day 182
Primary	Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Vital Signs Abnormalities	Number of participants with change from baseline in vital signs abnormalities including temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure (supine) will be reported.	Baseline, up to Day 168
Primary	Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities	Number of participants with change from baseline in clinical laboratory abnormalities including hematology, chemistry and urinalysis will be reported.	Baseline, up to Day 168
Primary	Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Physical Examination Abnormalities	Number of participants with change from baseline in physical examination abnormalities will be reported.	Baseline, up to Day 168
Primary	Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities	Number of participants with change from baseline in ECG abnormalities will be reported.	Baseline, up to Day 168
Secondary	Percent Change From Baseline in Liver Fat Content	Percent change from baseline in liver fat content will be reported.	Baseline, weeks 6, 12, 18 and 24
Secondary	Plasma Concentration of JNJ-75220795 Over Time	Plasma samples will be analyzed to determine concentrations of JNJ-75220795.	SAD: Predose, up to Day 3 and MAD: Predose, up to Day 86
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Anti Drug Antibodies (ADA)	Percentage of participants with treatment-emergent ADA will be assessed using a validated assay for ADA analysis.	Up to Day 168
