   than 96%, without ventilation support) during screening evaluation

   - Clinically significant abnormalities in hematology or clinical chemistry parameters or
   Electrocardiogram (ECG), as assessed by the Site Investigator, at the Screening visit
   that would render the participant unsuitable for participation in the study
