Those with IGRA positive tests or positive TST who can document ongoing LTBI treatment for at least 4 weeks may be enrolled. Those with IGRA positive tests with documentation of the following may also be enrolled:
Successful completion of treatment for active TB.

Participants with patient health questionnaire (PHQ)-9 score ≥10 that in the opinion of a mental healthcare professional pose a serious suicide risk, or any history of suicidal behavior in the last 6 months and/or any suicidal ideation in the last 2 months, or who in the investigator's judgment, poses a significant suicide risk. NOTE: For participants with a PHQ-9 score ≥10, at the Screening visit or at the day 1 visit before the first administration of the study drug, it is required that they be referred for an assessment by a mental healthcare professional (e.g., locally licensed psychiatrist, psychologist, or master's level therapist) before the investigator makes a final decision regarding suitability for enrollment.
