Safety: Adverse Events (AEs), Discontinuations Due to AEs, Deaths, and Serious AEs (SAEs)AEs: from initiation of study drug administration on Day 1/Period 1 through study discharge Day 3/Period 3. SAEs: from date of written consent until 30 days after discontinuation of dosing or participation in study if last scheduled visit occurred later.

AE=any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition in a subject administered an investigational product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. SAE=any untoward medical occurrence that results in death, is life-threatening, requires or prolongs inpatient hospitalization (including elective surgery), results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is an important medical event.

Safety: Clinically Significant Laboratory, Vital Sign, Physical Examination, and Electrocardiogram (ECG) AbnormalitiesFrom Day 1 of Period 1 through Day 3 of Period 3 (study discharge)

Abnormalities considered by the investigator to be clinically significant and/or reported as an AE.
