- Miscellaneous
- For female subjects, unless postmenopausal for at least 1 year or surgically sterile (does not include tubal ligation), unwillingness to practice effective contraception, as defined by the Investigator, during the study. Women considering becoming pregnant while on study are to be excluded.
