    6. Any clinically abnormal symptom or organ impairment based on medical history, physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG) or laboratory test results, which require medical treatment.

    7. A prolonged QT/QTc interval (QT interval corrected for heart rate by Fridericia's formula [QTcF] greater than (>) 450 milliseconds [ms]) as demonstrated by a repeated ECG.

    8. Known history of clinically significant drug allergy at Screening.

    9. Known history of food allergy or presently experiencing significant seasonal or perennial allergy at Screening.

    10. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive demonstrated by positive serology at Screening.

    11. Active viral hepatitis (B or C) as demonstrated by positive serology at Screening.

    12. History of drug or alcohol dependency or abuse within 2 years before Screening, or a positive urine drug test or breathe alcohol test.

    13. Participants who contravene the restrictions on concomitant medications, food and beverages during the Screening Period.

    14. Currently enrolled in another clinical study or used any investigational drug or device within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, preceding informed consent.
