5. Current diagnosis of or treatment for malignancy, other than non-melanoma skin cancer
6. Current life-threatening condition other than vascular disease that may prevent a subject completing the study
7. Use of an investigational device or investigational drug within 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is the longer) preceding the first dose of study medication
8. Patients considered unsuitable to participate by the research team (e.g., due to medical reasons, laboratory abnormalities, or subject?s unwillingness to comply with all study-related procedures)
