  • Presence of any active autoimmune disease or history of autoimmune disease, including but not limited to: interstitial pneumonia, enteritis, hepatitis, hypophysitis, vasculitis, nephritis, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism (participants on hormone replacement therapy may be considered for inclusion). Participants with psoriasis or childhood asthma/allergy that has fully resolved and requires no intervention in adulthood may be considered for inclusion, but those requiring bronchodilator therapy are not eligible.
