Participants who answer "yes" to any of these questions must be referred to the investigator for follow-up evaluation
History of suicide attempt on the suicidal behavior section of the lifetime version of the C-SSRS© at Visit 1
Any acute or unstable significant medical condition (e.g., seizure disorder, bipolar
