during trial participation, history of arteriovenous malformation or aneurysm, history
of gastroduodenal ulcer disease or gastrointestinal hemorrhage, history of
intracranial, intraocular, spinal, retroperitoneal, or atraumatic intraarticular
bleeding, use of drugs that may interfere with hemostasis during trial conduct (eg,
acetylic salicylic acid or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs)
7. Participant has an active infection or history of infections as follows:
1. Acute infection requiring treatment with oral antibiotics, anti-virals,

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) as defined by the following:
1. Positive Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) (with one of the following
acceptable assays: QuantiFERON(R)-TB Gold (QFT-G) test, T-SPOT TB, QuantiFERON-TB
Gold In-Tube test (QFT-GIT)) performed during Screening or within 3 months prior
to Day 1. OR
2. History of either untreated or inadequately treated latent or active TB
infection.
10. Participants with positive testing for COVID-19 at the Baseline visit.
11. Participants with clinically significantly abnormal laboratory values, as determined
by the Investigator (or medically qualified designee), including but not limited to:
1. Absolute neutrophil count = 1,500/µL or absolute lymphocyte count = 800/µL, or
eosinophil count > 700/µL, platelet counts < 100 × 109/L, hemoglobin < ULN, or
any abnormal evaluations judged clinically significant by the Investigator (or
medically qualified designee) at the Screening or Baseline visits. A single
repeat of laboratory tests is permissible at Screening and Baseline, if deemed
required by PI or medically qualified designee.
2. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT)

Baseline visits.
4. Participants with Creatinine clearance rate < 80 mL/min as determined by the
Cockcroft Gault formula, which remains similar upon repeat, at the Screening or
Baseline visits.
12. Closure time testing or platelet aggregometry testing (to monitor platelet function)

eligibility purposes) or deemed clinically significant by the Investigator (or
medically qualified designee).
14. Screening ECG with QRS and/or T-wave judged to be unfavorable for a consistently
accurate QT measurement as judged by the Investigator (or medically qualified
designee).
15. Clinically significant abnormal screening values in clinical (electrocardiograms

Investigator (or medically qualified designee). Up to two repeats of assessments or
