5. Able to communicate well with the investigator, to understand and comply with the requirements of the study. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |

11. A serum potassium ≤ 3.5 mmol/l or ≥ 5.5 mmol/l at screening.
12. A previous history or previously diagnosed kidney disorder, which in the opinion of the investigator, may place the patient at higher risk from his/her participation in the study or is likely to confound the interpretation of the study results.

16. A positive Hepatitis B surface antigen or Hepatitis C test result.
17. History of malignancy of any organ system (other than localized basal cell carcinoma of the skin), treated or untreated, within the past 5 years, regardless of whether there is evidence of local recurrence or metastases.
18. Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women.
19. Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant.
20. Sexually active males unwilling to use a condom during intercourse while taking drug and for 2 weeks after stopping study medication. A condom is required for all sexually active male participants to prevent them from fathering a child AND to prevent delivery of the investigational drug via seminal fluid to their sexual partner.
21. On the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale, score “yes” on item 4 or item 5 of the Suicidal Ideation section of the C-SSRS, if this ideation occurred in the past 6 months, or yes” on any item of the Suicidal Behavior section, except for the “Non-Suicidal-Self Injurious Behavior” (question also included in the Suicidal Behavior section), if this
behavior occurred in the past 2 years.
22. Any surgical or medical condition, which in the opinion of the Investigator, may place the patient at higher risk from his/her participation in the study, or is likely to prevent the patient from complying with the requirements of the study or completing the study.
