  • Stable hormonal contraception for at least 3 months prior to study through study completion; or
  • Surgical sterilization (vasectomy) of male partner at least 6 months prior to study.
• To be considered of non-childbearing potential, females should be surgically sterilized (bilateral tubal ligation, hysterectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy at least 2 months prior to study) or be post-menopausal and at least 3 years since last menses.
