No significant safety issue that may place participant at safety risk as determined by the Investigator.

Disqualifiers

Evidence of hepatic disease that would put participant at risk by taking QCZ484 for long term as determined by the Investigator.

Clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias (e.g., ventricular tachycardia), high-grade atrioventricular (AV) block (e.g., Mobitz type II and third-degree AV block in absence of a pacemaker) developed during the parent study.

Permanent or persistent atrial fibrillation developed during the parent study.
