  3. Women of childbearing potential (as defined below) must:

    • Have a negative serum pregnancy test at Visit 1 (i.e., Visit 4 of study AC 055 310) and agree to perform monthly serum pregnancy tests.

    • Agree to use two reliable methods of contraception in parallel, from Visit 1 until 1 month after study drug discontinuation (see details below).

      • A female is considered to have childbearing potential unless she meets at least one of the following criteria:

        • Previous bilateral salpingo and/or oophorectomy, or hysterectomy.
        • Premature ovarian failure confirmed by a specialist.
        • Pre-pubescence, XY genotype, Turner syndrome, uterine agenesis.
        • Postmenopausal, defined as 12 consecutive months with no menses without an alternative medical cause.

        • Group 1: Oral, implantable, transdermal or injectable hormonal contraceptives, intrauterine devices, female sterilization (tubal ligation or non-surgical sterilization, e.g., permanent contraception with Essure procedure), or partner's sterilization (vasectomy). If a hormonal contraceptive is chosen from this group, it must be taken for at least one month prior to enrollment. Alternatively, if the Essure procedure is chosen as a contraceptive method, a hysterosalpingogram must have been performed to confirm correct location of the microinserts and tubal occlusion (as per manufacturer's recommendations).
