Liver aminotransferase elevations, at the enrollment visit, fulfilling the following criteria: (1) Alanine amino transferase (ALT) / aspartate aminotransferase (AST) greater than or equal to (\>=) 8 \* the upper limit of normal (ULN); (2) ALT/AST \>= 3 \* ULN and associated clinical symptoms of liver injury, for example: nausea, vomiting, fever, abdominal pain, jaundice, unusual lethargy or fatigue, flu-like syndrome (arthralgia, myalgia, fever); and (3) ALT/AST \>= 3 \* ULN and associated increase in total bilirubin to \>= 2 \* ULN
