Skin testing may be
performed according to local standard practice to confirm hypersensitivity.

The subject has a history of alcohol abuse, illegal drug use, or drug addiction within the 12 months prior to screening, or who regularly consume >21 units of alcohol (1 unit = 12 oz/300 mL beer, 1.5 oz/25 mL hard liquor/spirits, or 5 oz/100 mL wine) per week based on self-report. Subjects must have a negative urine drug screen at screening.
12. The subject is taking any excluded medications or treatments listed in the protocol.
13. If female, the subject is pregnant, lactating, or intending to become pregnant before, during, or within 4 weeks after participating in this study; or intending to donate ova during such time period.

The subject has a history or clinical manifestations of significant central nervous system, cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, metabolic, other gastrointestinal, urological, endocrine or hematological disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, would confound the study results or compromise subject safety.
15. The subject requires hospitalization or has surgery scheduled during the course of the study or has undergone major surgical procedures within 30 days prior to the Screening Visit.
16. The subject has a history of malignancy (including MALToma) or has been treated for malignancy within 5 years prior to the start of the Screening Period (Visit 1) (the subject may be included in the study if he/she has cured cutaneous basal cell carcinoma or
cervical carcinoma in situ).
17. The subject has acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, or tests positive for the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody or HCV RNA.

participate.

a) Creatinine levels: >2 mg/dL (>177 μmol/L).
b) Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >2 × the upper limit of normal (ULN) or total bilirubin >2 × ULN. |
