Subject has had an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) within the past 4 weeks
Subject has uncontrolled hemorrhage (acute blood loss requiring \> 3 UPC in the past 24 hours)
Major trauma within 36 hours of screening
Subject has severe granulocytopenia (leukocyte count less than 500 cells/mm3) or severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count less than 30,000 cells/mm3)
