E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
•Patients, who are pregnant and/or breastfeeding or fertile women, who are not prepared to use safe contraceptives (P-pills, hormone spiral or depot gestagene) during the time of the investigation. Pregnancy should be ruled out in fertile women by a negative pregnancy tests or the use of safe contraceptive for at least 3 months before study entry.

•Patients with diarrhea or gastrointestinal illness, which can prevent adequate absorption of the study drugs.
•Patients with malignant diseases, except local dermal carcinoma, treated with success.
•Patients with active systemic infections.
•Patients with other chronic or acute, systemic or organ specific diseases, which are debilitating the patient, in such a way, that study entry cannot be defended by the investigating doctors.
•Patients with plasma potassium > 6,5 mmol/l
•Patients, with any form of abuse of medical products, psychiatric disorders or other diseases, which may hamper the contacts between patient and the doctors.
•Patients, enrolled in other projects involving administration of project medication or other treatment, which may affect the outcome.
•Patients with allergic sensitization against the investigated drugs.
•Patients treated with m-TOR blockade (sirolimus, everolimus) |
• Patienter, som er gravide, ammer eller som, når det drejer sig om fertile kvinder, ikke er villige til at anvende sikre svangerskabsforebyggende midler (p-piller, hormonspiral eller depotgestagen) i den tid undersøgelsen foregår. Graviditet skal udelukkes hos fertile kvinder med negativ graviditetstest eller anvendelse as sikker kontraception i mindst 3 måneder op til indtræden i studiet.
• Patienter, der er positive for HIV, HTLV1, HVB eller anden potentiel alvorlig infektionssygdom.
• Patienter med diarre eller gastrointestinal lidelse, som kan forhindre optaget af de farmaka som indgår i studiet.
• Patienter med maligne sygdomme. Ikke metastaserende hudcarcinom, som med succes er behandlet er fritaget fra dette kriterium.
• Patienter med aktive systemiske infektioner Patienter med anden kronisk eller akut, systemisk eller organspecifik sygdom, som er invaliderende på en sådan måde, at indgang i studiet ikke kan forsvares, skønnet af den undersøgende læge.

• Patienter med enhver form for medicinmisbrug, psykiatrisk lidelse eller andre sygdomme, som efter undersøgerens mening kan vanskeliggøre kontakten mellem patient og de involverede læger.
• Patienter, som indgår i andre projektstudier der indebærer indgift af projektmedicin eller anden behandling, der kan påvirke undersøgelsens udfald.
• Patienter med overfølsomhed overfor de undersøgte præparater.
