Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- ≥18 years of age
- A female participant of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine test at screening and within 72 hours of the first dose of study treatment and must agree to further serum or urine pregnancy tests during the study
- A female participant must be either of the following: a. Not of childbearing potential b. Of childbearing potential and practicing true abstinence or have a sole partner who is vasectomized or practicing at least 1 highly effective user independent method of contraception.
