An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. The investigator assesses the relationship of each event to the use of study drug. A serious adverse event (SAE) is an event that results in death, is life-threatening, requires or prolongs hospitalization, results in a congenital anomaly, persistent or significant disability/incapacity or is an important medical event that, based on medical judgment, may jeopardize the participant and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the outcomes listed above.

Participants With Post-Baseline Potentially Clinically Important (PCI) Values for Systolic Blood Pressure

The number of subjects with at least 1 PCI post-baseline value during the study are reported. A post-baseline value was considered PCI if it met both the observed-value and the change-from-baseline criteria.

Participants With Post-Baseline PCI Values for Diastolic Blood Pressure
Day 1 (Baseline) to Day 126

The number of subjects with at least 1 PCI post-baseline value during the study are reported. A post-baseline value was considered PCI if it met both the observed-value and the change-from-baseline criteria.

Participants With Post-Baseline PCI Values for Heart Rate
Day 1 (Baseline) to Day 126
