- Has a hemoglobin ≤12 g/dL (≤120 gm/L) for males and ≤10 g/dL (≤100 gm/L) for females at Screening.
- Has a systolic blood pressure ≥160 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure ≥95 mm Hg at Screening (If the participant meets this exclusion criterion, the assessment may be repeated once at least 30 minutes after the initial measurement and decision will be made based on the second measurement).
- Has a history of cancer that has been in remission for \<5 years prior to Screening. A history of basal cell carcinoma or stage 1 squamous cell carcinoma of the skin is allowed.
- Has alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels \>2.0x the upper limit of normal (ULN) at Screening.
- Has a total bilirubin level greater than the ULN at Screening. Exception: if a participant has documented Gilbert's Syndrome, the participant will be allowed with an elevated bilirubin level per the investigator's discretion.
- Has a serum creatinine ≥1.5 mg/dL (≥133 μmol/L) \[if male\] or ≥1.4 mg/dL (≥124 μmol/L) \[if female\] and/or estimated (based on Modification of Diet in Renal Disease \[MDRD\] calculation) glomerular filtration rate (GFR) \<60 mL/min/1.73m2 (regardless of gender) at Screening.

- Has a history of laser treatment for proliferative diabetic retinopathy within 6 months prior to Screening.
- Has had gastric banding or gastric bypass surgery within 1 year prior to Screening.

- Is unable to understand verbal or written English or any other language for which a certified translation of the approved informed consent is available.
