- Patients should not have any uncontrolled illness including ongoing or active

Association (NYHA) class III or IV heart failure, uncontrolled angina, severe
uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias, or electrocardiographic evidence of acute
ischemia or active conduction system abnormalities; prior to study entry, any ECG
abnormality at screening has to be documented by the investigator as not medically
relevant

to, left bundle branch block, 2nd degree atrioventricular (AV) block type II, 3rd
degree block, or corrected QT interval (QTc) >= 470 msec; subjects with a cardiac
pacemaker who have a QTc interval of >= 470 msec may be eligible if these findings are
considered not clinically significant as documented via a cardiology evaluation

exception of complete resection of basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of

hepatitis C but have finished treatment and are PCR negative will be allowed; (testing
to be done only in patients suspected of having infections or exposures)
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because of the potential for teratogenic
