initial ECG indicates a QTcF interval >450 ms)

- Current evidence of clinically significant disease (e.g., cardiac, respiratory,
gastrointestinal, renal, neurological [including participants who lack capacity and/or
whose cognitive decline indicates disorientation to person/place/time and/or
situation], or psychiatric disease or malignancy other than basal cell carcinoma) or
