Throughout Cycle 1 of Phase I (21 days)
Primary	Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D): Phase I	RP2D was defined as the highest dose with acceptable toxicity as determined from Phase I of the study.	Throughout Cycle 1 of Phase I (21 days)
Primary	Percentage of Participants With Objective Response According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) by Independent Review Committee (IRC): Phase II	Percentage of participants with objective response as assessed by IRC was defined as the percentage of responders in the response evaluable population, where responders were defined as participants determined to have a best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on the RECIST v1.1 criteria.

PR: at least a 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of measures (longest diameter for tumor lesions and short axis measure for nodes) of TLs, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. CR and PR were to be confirmed by repeat assessments >=4 weeks after initial documentation. Clopper-Pearson method was used to calculate 95% confidence interval (CI).	Cycle 1 Day 1 up to 194 weeks (assessed at every 6 weeks from Cycle 1 Day 1, at Cycles 2, 4, and 6 between Days 14-21, and every 3 cycles thereafter) (1 cycle = 21 days)
