    Time frame: Part A- Up to Day 141; Part B-Up to Day 169 post first dose administration

    Blood pressure and heart rate will be assessed.

  3. Number of participants with change in serum blood parameters.

    Time frame: Part A- Up to Day 141; Part B - Up to Day 169 post first dose administration

    Laboratory assessments include hematology, blood chemistry and coagulation test

  4. Number of participants with change in physical examination following treatment administration.

    Time frame: Part A- Up to Day 141; Part B - Up to Day 169 post first dose administration

    Physical examination will be assessed.

  5. Number of participants with change in 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) results measurements following treatment administration.

    Time frame: Part A- Up to Day 141; Part B - Up to Day 169 post first dose administration

    12-lead ECG will be tested at individual sites using sites' equipment and will be assessed.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Pharmacokinetics parameters- maximum observed Concentration (Cmax)

    Maximum observed concentration of the study drug in serum will be analyzed for all subjects.

  2. Pharmacokinetics parameters- Time for maximum observed Concentration (Tmax)

    Time frame: At specified timepoints pre-dose and up to 169 days post first dose administration

    Serum PK Tmax will be analyzed for all subjects

  3. Pharmacokinetics parameters- Area under the curve (AUC)

    Time frame: At specified timepoints pre-dose and up to 169 days post first dose administration

    Area under the curve of the study drug in serum will be analyzed for all subjects

  4. Pharmacokinetics parameters- Volume of distribution (Vz)

    Time frame: At specified timepoints pre-dose and up to 169 days post first dose administration

    Volume of distribution of the study drug in serum will be analyzed for all subjects

  5. Pharmacokinetics parameters- Total clearance (CL)

    Time frame: At specified timepoints pre-dose and up to 169 days post first dose administration

    Total clearance of the study drug in serum will be analyzed for all subjects

  6. Pharmacokinetics parameters- - Elimination Half-life (t1/2).

    Time frame: At specified timepoints pre-dose and up to 169 days post first dose administration
