Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number (or %) of participants who discontinue or dose reduced the study drug due to a treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) [ Time Frame: From first dose date to Day 43 (±4) ]
    TEAE is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving the study drug, until the end of study period

  2. Number (or %) of participants who experience at least one treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) [ Time Frame: From first dose date to Day 43 (±4) ]
    TEAE is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving the study drug, until the end of study period

  3. Number (or %) of participants who experience at least one treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) by severity [ Time Frame: From first dose date to Day 43 (±4) ]
    TEAE is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving the study drug, until the end of study period
