Examples include transient ischemic attacks, cerebrovascular accidents, hemodynamically significant (i.e., massive or sub-massive) deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary emboli. Note 1: Participants with either deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary emboli that do not result in hemodynamic instability are allowed to enroll as long as they have been on a stable dose of anticoagulants for at least 4 weeks. Note 2: Participants with thromboembolic events related to indwelling catheters (including PICC lines) or other procedures may be enrolled. 5. Triplicate average QTcF interval ≥480 ms or a history of prolonged QT syndrome. 6. Congenital LQTS. 7. Evidence of active non-infectious pneumonitis. 8.

HBsAg (+), HBV DNA \>200 IU/mL (105 copies/mL); 2.
