• Pulmonary arterial hypertension, either idiopathic or due to connective tissue or thromboembolic disease.
• History of another underlying condition that predisposes the participant to infections.
• History of ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, or microscopic colitis diagnosed by either a gastroenterologist or by histopathology.
