    • Which currently or previously required systemic immunosuppressive or immuno-modulatory therapy (including corticosteroids administered by systemic route)
    • And/or has substantial probability to cause an irreversible injury to any tissue
    • And/or is recent or unstable or has substantial risk to progress and cause severe complications.
