However, Permission from the Scientific Board must be obtained to enrol or allow the continued participation of a subject enrolled in another study.\n\nGeneral Exclusion Criteria:\n\n1. As a result of medical interview, physical examination or screening investigation the physician responsible considers the subject unfit for the study either because of the risk to the subject due to the study or the influence this may have on the study results.\n2. The subject has a history of recreational drug use or other allergy, which, in the opinion of the responsible physician, contra-indicates their participation.\n3.

If a woman is subsequently found to have been pregnant at the time of an assessment data from that assessment will not be included in the analyses.\n4. The subject has participated within 3 months of the first dose in a study using a new molecular entity, or the first dose in any other study investigating drugs or having participated within three months in a study with invasive procedures. Any U-BIOPRED assessments should be deferred until 3 months after the first dose or invasive procedure.
