• Known history of or suspected significant current immunosuppression, including history of invasive opportunistic or helminthic infections despite infection resolution or otherwise recurrent infections of abnormal frequency or prolonged duration
• Participant with personal or family history of long QT syndrome
• History of moderate to severe congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class III or IV), or recent cerebrovascular accident, or any other condition in the opinion of the Investigator that would have put the participant at risk by participation in the protocol
