    An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug related. Participants will be instructed to contact the investigator at any time after receiving the study drug, if any symptoms develop. A TEAE is defined as any event not present before exposure to study drug or any event already present that worsens in intensity or frequency after exposure.
