Current enrollment or past participation in another investigational study in which an investigational intervention (e.g., drug, vaccine, invasive device) was administered within 5 half-lives (if known) or twice the duration of biological effect (if known), whichever is longer, or within the last 90 days (if half-life and duration of biological effect are unknown), before signing of consent in any other clinical study involving an investigational study intervention or any other type of medical research.
Current enrollment or past participation in this clinical study.
Positive pre-clinical drug/alcohol screen, including tetrahydrocannabinol.
Positive Human Immunodeficiency Virus antibody test.
