Also, patients requiring hormone replacement with corticosteroids for adrenal insufficiency are eligible if the steroids are administered only for purpose of hormonal replacement and at doses < 10 mg or equivalent prednisone per day. [Note: Patients receiving bisphosphonate or denosumab are eligible.]Conditions requiring systemic anti-arrhythmic therapy known to prolong QT/QTc interval, patients with QTcF interval >480 msec on at least 2 separate and consecutive ECGs at screening or a medical history of long-QT-Syndrome.\n- Patients with active central nervous system (CNS) metastases are excluded. Subjects with a history of treated CNS metastases (by surgery or radiation therapy) are not eligible unless they have fully recovered from treatment, demonstrated no progression for at least 1 month in MRI, and do not require continued steroid therapy.\n- Prior organ transplantation (including allogeneic stem-cell transplantation).\n- Known history of testing positive HBV or HCV infection at screening (positive HBV surface antigen or HCV RNA if anti-HCV antibody screening is positive). HIV positive patients are not excluded.\n- Active or history of any autoimmune disease (except for patients with vitiligo) or immune deficiencies that required treatment with systemic immunosuppressive drugs."}
