- Pregnancy Exclusion
- Female subjects of childbearing potential must not be pregnant at screening. Female subjects are considered to be of childbearing potential unless one of the following criteria is met: permanent sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy) or documented postmenopausal status (defined as 12 months of amenorrhea in a woman over 45 years-of-age in the absence of other biological or physiological causes.

Inclusion criterion: "Capable of understanding and complying with the protocol requirements and signed informed consent (or informed assent and parental/guardian consent for subjects < 18 years of age)" — i.e. subjects <18 require informed assent plus parental/guardian consent.
