- For women of childbearing potential (a woman is considered of childbearing potential (WOCBP), i.e., fertile, following menarche and until becoming post-menopausal unless permanently sterile. Permanent sterilization methods include hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral oophorectomy): Agreement to practice a highly effective method of contraception (as defined in 8.) from the date of consent until at least 7 months after last study treatment.
- Non-sterilized male participants who are sexually active with a female partner of child-bearing potential are eligible to participate in the study if they agree to the following during treatment and until at least 4 months after the last administration of study medication: • Information of the partner of their participation in the study and the need to comply with contraception instructions as directed by the investigator. • Male participants are required to use a condom during treatment and until at least 4 months after the last administration of study medication. • Female partners have to agree to practice a highly effective method of contraception (as defined below) from the date of consent until at least 4 months after last study treatment. • Sperm donation is not allowed during treatment and until at least 4 months after the last administration of study medication. Highly effective methods of contraception according to CTFG guidance include: • Combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation: oral, intravaginal or transdermal • Progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation: oral, injectable or implantable • Intrauterine device (IUD) • Intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS) • Bilateral tubal occlusion • Vasectomized partner • Sexual abstinence
