the data detection limits.]{} [We obtained new high-contrast and high-resolution [total intensity images of the target spanning the $Y$ to the $K$ bands (0.95–2.3 $\muup$m) using the VLT/SPHERE near-infrared camera and integral field spectrometer]{}.]{} [The spiral arms and the outer cavity edge are revealed at high resolutions and sensitivities without the need for aggressive image post-processing techniques, which introduce photometric biases. We do not detect any close-in companions. For the derivation of the detection limits on putative giant planets embedded in the disk, we show that the knowledge of the disk aspect ratio and viscosity is critical for the estimation of the attenuation of a planet signal by the protoplanetary dust because of the gaps that these putative planets may open. Given assumptions on these parameters, the mass limits can vary from $\sim$2–5 to $\sim$4–7 Jupiter masses at separations beyond the disk spiral arms. The SPHERE detection limits are more stringent than those derived from archival NaCo/$L^{\prime}$ data and provide new constraints on a few recent predictions of massive planets (4–15 $M_{\rm{J}}$) based on the spiral density wave theory. The SPHERE and ALMA data do not favor the hypotheses on massive giant planets in the outer disk (beyond 0.6$''$). There
