Primary	Number of Participants Who Experienced Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs and TEAEs Leading to Death	An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a study drug which may or may not have a causal relationship with the study drug.

A serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death, life- threatening, required initial or prolonged in-patient hospitalization, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, or considered as medically important event. Any TEAE included participants with both serious and non-serious AEs.	Baseline (Day 1 of current study) to end of study (Week 218)
