Acceptable contraception for the male participant when having sexual intercourse with a WOCBP who is not currently pregnant is defined as using a condom. In addition, WOCBP partners must use hormonal contraceptives or an intrauterine device combined In addition, total abstinence, if in accordance with the lifestyle of the prospective participant, is acceptable. Vasectomized male participants should have received medical assessment of surgical success
