Subject information and ICF documents for adults are listed in trial documents. No assent or paediatric consent procedures described..
- Pregnancy Exclusion
- For women of childbearing potential (WOCBP), study participants must use a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of < 1% per year) for at least 5 months after the last dose of study intervention.
