16. Use of other investigational drugs at the time of Screening or within the prior 30 days, or five elimination half-lives, or until the expected pharmacodynamic effect has returned to baseline, whichever is longer.
17. History of malignancy of any organ system (other than basal cell carcinoma, in situ squamous cell carcinoma of skin, or in situ carcinoma of cervix of the uterus that have been radically treated), within the past 5 years, regardless of whether or not there is evidence of local recurrence or metastases.
18. Any of the following conditions or treatments that may impact the safety of the patient:
