Hepatitis B or C serologic status: subjects who<br> are hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc) positive and who are surface antigen<br> negative will need to have a negative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Those who are<br> hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg) positive or hepatitis B PCR positive will be<br> excluded. Subjects who are hepatitis C antibody positive will need to have a<br> negative PCR result. Those who are hepatitis C PCR positive will be excluded.<br> Subjects with a history of Hepatitis C who received antiviral treatment are eligible<br> as long as PCR is negative.<br><br> - History of severe all
